DAYTON, WY
Hello from the Eastern foothills of the Big Horn Mountains. Long time shooter, prior service, 11B and 84B two tours in Nam, 68-69. Wife and I coached international smallbore when our 2 sons were teens. I was a shop teacher, LEO and then a computer guy. After retiring from that we opened a CNC shop make parts from almost anybody that needed parts for what ever. We bought the 5mm Craig from Mike Craig in 2004. We did a lot of odd firearms related parts for many different shops. The 5mm Craig led us into making TC Contender barrels which led to Encore barrels and then I developed a way to machine a barrel stub from a single blocke of 4140 ht to R32-35, new locking lugs, extractors, and anything that was related to TC barrel. Since moving back to my home state nearly 3 years ago I did not renew my 07 FFL. S I can finally do some of my stuff done for fun. I am looking at building a Precision Rifle to if I nave enough left in me to try competing in that sport. I have enjoyed this site as a guest user several time. Thank you.
