http://ifun.ru/view/220916These guys are real deal stock makers. #16 & #17. So if you have a reeeely sharp axe & can hold the stock blank with your toes you are good to go. Same for the metal. Just chalk up your files and make what you want. SIG AMT? No problemo! Start filing!
Oh. These guys ain't amish - the pics are from beautiful downtown Peshawar.
And handloading! I think Lee loaders were invented here! I saw a vid of this shop & the just dipped the case full & pounded on a boolet. Test firing was done by an apprentice.
If you survive 6 months as an apprentice you can start training for your journeyman's ticket. And learn to make barrels from rebar. ( really!!
)
They probably don't crank out too many flintgrinders though. SW
