Parkj5,
Try Don Kiser @ Home# 318-925-4851 or Cell# 318-655-7177. He's local to me, NW LA and builds fine rifles. Me and him go way back as he's my old BR partner. He was building rifles before I was if that tells you anything. He has an FFL so he's good to go. I've been sending him my overflow and for now, he has fairly quick turn around times, that'll change soon. He worked as a Tool & Die maker several years back and is actually one of the guys that helped me learn to run a lathe.
