Got a phone call last night from a widow whose husband left her a large (30-40 rifles and pistols) collection of Milsurps. She didn't know anything about them, just they were from "The Great War". She wants to donate them to a Museum and needs an appraisal for tax purposes.

So I agreed to help her out.


While I was waiting for her to call me back with the address I started working on that Tabuk Scabbard.

It's gonna be pretty when I finish

@Jds556762 what are you having done to that barrel you sent to ADCO?
I just tried to order a "cut/thread" and a "install FSB with taper option" and the FSB/Taper option was unavailable.
I emailed them and got this response from Steve:

"Due to unplanned medical issues we aren't offering most of our shop
service for the next several weeks."

Looks like the simple stuff, like cut/thread and pining low pro GBs, is still available, but the stuff that requires serious shop skills, re-profiling taper drilling, are on hold for now. Just a heads up.
I just ordered having a new low profile gas block drilled and pinned so I hope A. That no one is too sick for too long just for their sake and B. They’re able to get that service done in a timely manner.

That sucksss

You got a back up option you’re going to send your stuff to?

what kinda stuff did she have, always like hearing these "barn find" stories

All the rifles were import marked. Mixmaster H&R garand, 1903, Turkish mauser, carcano, Hex nagant, couple of wartime 1911s in rough shape, S&W victory revolver, and a bunch of junk single shot shotguns and rusted out 22s
