    Barrel suppliers

    Hey bioprof. We use Long Hammock barrels in our Chambers fowler kits (PA and English). Riley makes a great smoothbore for us, and even a few rifled ones. Give him a buzz and see what he can do for you. (352) 748-7373 As for Rice, I've talked him into keeping the straights, but only in the...

    Well, its finally official - I'm the owner of the newest barrel company in the market Buckeye Barrels, LLC. :applause: Although, I'm not really making the barrels. After much discussion and brain storming between myself, Dad and LC Rice, we concluded that for Rice to be able to keep the...

    Decisions...what a grand dilemma

    Riverrat - Yes, We can make them in longer pulls. What we do for that is not inlet the butt plate at all and leave a big piece of wood at the end for you to shape and then inlet the plate. Definitely can get a least a 15" out of it. Bearman - I'll ask LC about his proof charges and what he...

    Decisions...what a grand dilemma

    Thanks DanL! I won't bore you guys with a lengthy sales pitch here - plus it's better in person or over the phone anyway. That way you get the Southern accent! :) When Dad goes hunting out west (usually for mule deer or elk - big stuff) he likes to take his 58 cal. Edward Marshall. No...

    How much experience required or recommended?

    It's great to hear all your stories! Thanks for sharing. If it's your first ML, a kit would help get you started. If it's a decent kit it will have the proper arcitecture of the gun in place. This not only will help make sure the balance is good, but will give you a base pattern to go by to...

    rice barrels........

    I agree, a phone call is always appreciated! Trust me there is another known barrel maker besides Rice that could help me out tremindously by doing just that. All being said though I'll take on the task of helping out LC anytime if it means that Rice says in business! Just call me! ::

    Missing Fly

    Those little flys live up to their name sometimes! Just a tip, we keep one of those super magnetic extendable wands around the shop in case we drop a lock part or two. Yeh, it picks up all kinds of metal shavings too, but hey we usually find 2 or 3 flys in the mix!

    Where is all the barrels going?

    No joke, our European sales have increased a good bit thanks to the Euro. As for Chambers/Siler, after the price increase we had to do in August, we're hoping that we can sit on these for a long time to come. I just wish our suppliers would cooperate with our plan. Who's in charge of the price...

    Wet weather again.

    I'm not a very active shooter (the shop keeps me way too busy ::) and rainy days are definitely not in my plans. However, my shooters up in Washington State would suggest several locks that are out on the market that have waterproof pans. Basically the pan has a raised lip that fits into a...

    Question about ignition time?

    Hi all, Thanks for the welcome! Glad I can help. I'm still learning too, but I'll try to contribute when I can. :winking: As for cleaning, you shouldn't need to remove the barrel to get it clean. The originals we have don't show any type of wear that would indicate that the barrels were...
