I think through some research you will find he is a good responsive gunsmith who cares about what he puts out of his shop. In other words he already has a good reputation so you sending your stuff to him will get quality work in return.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
I've seen and shot with some of his handy-work. It was all first rate. If I didn't generally do my own work, he's on the short list of people that I'd send things off to do.
He's also a very nice guy to talk to and we've spent some time talking shop over the phone. I'm sure you'll be happy with Mark's turnaround time, quality of work and communication during the process.

He did an excellent job of timing my brake, rechambering my rifle & installing a knob. Communicates well while the job is on going. I'll be calling him again very soon.

Go look through this thread of mine....pics of the build Mark just completed for me......
http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=181841&Number=2027829
The man does great work and is very easy to get ahold of. I spoke with him for 30-45 minutes last night on the phone even after my build is done and in my hands. He has a love for his job and the builds he does.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
one think you might try, since mark is a member here is using the user list at the top to find the member, i think he is xxx and then find his posts. you will see plenty of pictures. just based on his pictures, his work is top notch and i havent heard a complaint yet. he seems to be doing alot of different stuff. i dont have a 700 but i like machine work so i look at his posts and stuff and its always top quality clean machine work. and i dont know him of have any work by him, but i would not hesitate to have him chop my stuff and make me a sweet thread protector.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
My howa is getting reworked by him right now. I'll have a thread up when i get everything back and re-assembled. So far, he's been a absolute pleasure to work with. He's kept great contact, and answered any questions quickly. I like the fact he's honest too. He told me that my bolt handle was bent a little funky, so the knob install is not going to be perfectly seamless. *oh well... damn*. I'd rather find that out now, than get teh gun back and be like "wtf".
A+++++++++ To Mark @ SAC

Give Mark a call and he can explain the shipping to you. No issues so dont worry.

I'm not exactly sure how the shipping process works either but just give Mark a call, he would be happy to make your rifle better and to tell you how to ship it.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
Mark has done a bolt knob and shortened a barrel/install a muzzle brake on another rifle for me. His communication and turn around are excellent to say the least. He is now building me a 223AI from the ground up. Like the others, I have zero complaints and will quietly await the arrival of the SAC rifle.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
The first thread is of the rifle he built me, the second is one just looks absolutely bad-ass! Both are amazing.

Re: Short Action Customs LLC work???
you can mail to a ffl and he can mail to you. box it and insure it for replacement costs. for a rifle, i think id go ups but usps will ship too. i would buy a cheap $20 case and put that in a bigger box. i worry because i had a stock get broke, luckily it was a plastic HK stock. but that was in a case too. maybe a big tube?

I love the paint job on your gun. It makes me jealous every time I see it.
