Annual Holiday!!!! Wow...and do we feel we need this!! It's time for our usual annual holiday during which we will be away from the computer and therefore unable to answer e-mails. However, we will be back in the shop and on the computer next Saturday 4th September a date which will come around all too soon we suspect! Carbon fibre rimfire barrels At last....back from Proof we have once again some Volquartsen carbon fibre barrels for Rimfire Magic and Ruger 10/22 actions. Unfortunately we only have the 16" ones at present, but still have a further 50 of the 12.5" barrels on order. We have managed to keep the price at £295 which includes your choice of compensator or 1/2 x 20 adapter at the muzzle. We also have a limited quantity of 16" carbon fibre barrels to fit the Ruger 77/22 (.22LR) and the Ruger 77/17 or 77/22 magnum (.17HMR) These are also £295 which is a reduction of £30 on the last batch! Due shortly.... It's been a frustrating exercise actually getting our consolidated shipment of Manners stocks, Jewell triggers and Green Mountain barrels over from the US. However, at least we have now heard that the remaining balance of the 200 Green Mountain barrels which were ordered in January 2009 (yes.....2009!) should now also be at our shipper!! Fingers crossed that everything makes it here soon! Alchemy Centrefire Actions As many of you will be very aware if you view this site regularly it has become progressively more and more difficult to get gun parts exported from the US and our philosophy has been to explore where possible the manufacture of parts here in the UK Now, with considerable pride and pleasure we can announce the arrival of our own centrefire rifle action. Not surprisingly it follows the design of the ubiquitious Remington 700 which of course allows the use of many aftermarket stocks and triggers. A similar action has been made since 2008 in very small numbers and one has already shot in excess of 2,000 rounds. The action is CNC produced in stainless steel and fitted with a carbon steel bolt, comes complete with stainless scope rail and recoil lug, and employs a Sako style extractor and side bolt release. We will of course be building rifles ourselves on this action but it will be made freely available to the Trade, and our manufacturer is now working flat out to allow us eventually to have actions available off the shelf and held in inventory. This will of course take a while, but we are initially looking to offer short actions in most bolt face options, single shot and repeater variants, and in left and right hand formats. If all goes well we envisage long actions to come too, but not before the end of the year. Actions will only be available from your chosen rifle maker so we are not quoting any retail prices...but they will of course be competitive against most currently imported actions...... particularly with current exchange rates!!
Stainless Steel Marlins in .357mag ..... in Stock !
Why buy your new Marlin from us? We strip every new Marlin to ensure reliable feeding from the magazine, and lubricate ready for use..... The new .357 stainless rifle with 18.5" barrel shown above is offered at £775 Finally.......we keep one or two Marlins in stock ! Trigger Happy kits Price £95 including Special Delivery (next working day) At last we have these back in stock as a delivery came through just a couple of days before the expiry of our current import and export licenses. We use this part as the core of our full "tune and slick" service which we offer for our Marlin lever action rifles. Exports PLEASE, PLEASE NOTE THAT GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS MEAN THAT WE CANNOT SHIP ANY GUN PARTS OUTSIDE THE UK!! WE RECEIVE SEVERAL REQUESTS EACH WEEK FOR PARTS WHICH ARE NOT CONSIDERED AS GUN PARTS IN THE ENQUIRERS COUNTRY eg STOCKS. UNFORTUNATELY THE UK GOVERNMENT INCLUDES THESE AS WELL. WE WOULD LOVE TO BE IN A POSITION TO SUPPLY ABROAD BUT REGRET THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO HELP WITH EXPORT REQUESTS Our Duracoat finish.... We started using Duracoat as a finish for our custom rifles several months ago, and many customers have expressed admiration for Dave's craftsmanship with this material on both metal and synthetic materials. We thought you may like to see examples of a few he prepared earlier....
Manners Stocks We've now started to fit pillars to the Manners GAT thumbhole stocks which arrived a few weeks ago, but rather than use the pillars supplied which have two flat ends we have elected to use pillars which have a flat lower end but a curved top end which of course offers even better support as they provide a greater bedding surface around the radius of the receiver. We are offering these stocks at £550 which includes fitted pillars which will allow you to use it as a "drop in" stock option for short action Remington 700 rifles and use the existing factory floor plate and parts. We can confirm that Tom Manners has just introduced at the recent Shot Show in Las Vegas a clever and innovative idea......Badger Ordnance has produced a mini chassis which will be moulded into Tom Manners' stocks and will accept the superb Accuracy International magazines. We are expecting a delivery of stocks complete with this chassis in the near future. We will advise the price when we see the invoice. Click on image to see more Manners stocks!
Surgeon Actions in .338 Lapua Magnum Considering the current difficulties finding ranges passed for this calibre we have been pleasantly surprised at the number of requests for .338 Lap Mag rifles. Surgeon's big XL action is perfect for this type of long range tactical rifle and coupled with a large diameter barrel and muzzle brake the resulting rifle is a pleasure to shoot. Unfortunately it isn't too easy to find stocks to accept this action, but we have now got McMillan A-5 stocks here, and recently we've managed to get our hands on a number of AICS chassis systems too, although we understand that only a small number has so far been produced. We have a couple of complete barreled actions awaiting finishing and bedding in these stocks and will have them available shortly, and also have more barrel blanks on order.
SporTac Sound Moderators
Yet another centrefire rifle sound moderator in an already crowded market we hear you groan.......well yes actually! However, this is the latest product manufactured under the South Yorkshire Shooting Supplies banner. Intended for both sporting and tactical or target use the "Sportac" name is simply a contraction of the two words (as if you hadn't already guessed!) The moderator itself is an "over the barrel" or reflex design constructed with an aluminium outer casing and containing a conventional internal baffle stack. Unlike some other makes which use a number of aluminium baffles to reduce weight we elected to utilise stainless steel baffles throughout. The unit weighs in at around 600 grams and goes back approximately 4.5" over the barrel and extends some 6.5" in front of the muzzle. Naturally we will be offering these as part of our custom rifle repertoire whilst of course also offering to install them to a customers existing rifle. The price for muzzle threading and fitting a Sportac moderator is just £225 which we believe helps to bring the use of a moderator within the reach of the great majority of shooters, be they for sporting or target use! Tactical Magic Bolt Knob
We have been fitting these bolt knobs to many of our Remington 700 rifles for some time we have now but have added our name to them so in future you'll know your Rem 700 has been fitted with a quality part! We can replace your factory bolt knob with this more ergonomic version for £75 plus return post Tactical Magic Scope Base To complement your Remington 700 rifle we offer our scope base which is CNC machined from solid steel bar in Picatinny style which will also accept Weaver style rings. This item is finished in black and is available in zero cant or 20MOA options and comes with fixing screws for £85 Rimfire Magic rifles We're pleased to announce our latest semi-automatic .22lr receiver which is machined from a solid block of stainless steel. Unlike our aluminium action this one does not have the scope base machined integrally but accepts any 10/22 style base. We intend to offer a bead blasted natural finish, but two of our first orders specified a black Duracoat finish shown here together with our new trigger unit and a Power Custom scope base. We will be adding this receiver as an option to our build list shortly at a price of £375
Lawton and Surgeon rifle actions If you're reading this bit, then you have almost certainly seen the piece at the top of the page about our own actions! We must stress that we have been perfectly happy with both Surgeon and Lawton actions and will continue to offer rifles using them until we run out.....
At last we have these 25 round mags back in stock after a wait of around nine months! The bad news is that although we ordered 250......we've only received 150 but hopefully this will keep everyone happy for a while! These are the black polymer variety with of course stainless steel feed lips. A further 75 arrived recently but this has meant a price increase to £45 These may be taken apart for easy cleaning with just soap and water....what else could a 10/22 user want??? For detailed information take a look at www.tacticalinc.com where you will also see how they may be adjusted to suit your own rifle. Our experience has shown that the reliability of these mags may be enhanced by polishing the areas where the nose and tail ends of the cartridge rides and after cleaning, spraying the inner surfaces with a light film of oil. CZ Trigger Kit The kit comprises three springs and two brass tubes together with comprehensive fitting and safety instructions.
The selection of components permit the shooter to obtain a crisp, single stage trigger pull of less than 2.0 lbs, although we recommend this weight for rifles used in the field for pest control. With over 3,000 sold we feel we can confidently say that this is pretty much an essential "must have" item for any CZ 452 rimfire rifle! Price £10.00 (post & packing £2.00) New o e Opening Hours ing hours... Many thanks to those of you who have contacted us to say that they understand our recent changes to our opening hours for the retail shop, which is now open from Thursday to Saturday. The good news is that the new system does appear to be working for us here! The extra day available for us in the workshop has paid dividends, allowing us to catch up (a bit at least) with the backlog of orders for our rifles. This has helped relieve a bit of the pressure we are under all the time! Your patience is much appreciated by us all. Semi-custom Remington 700 rifles Some welcome good news for a change.... Our semi-custom Remington 700's are now selling very well for us, both as target and pest control rifles. Our modified barreled actions can be fitted to a choice of aftermarket stocks as well as their factory ones, with the Accuracy International Chassis System (AICS) and Bell & Carlson stocks proving particularly popular. The SPS Varmint rifles in particular are showing much promise as the basis for modified rifles particularly when installed in an alternative stock, and we are now trying to find time to assemble a few semi-custom rifles to have on the shelf here for visitors to take a look at (and possibly even purchase!) Many shooters have travelled quite a distance in order to be able to handle various stocks to check how they fit, so this should be even easier in the near future.
Remington 700 detachable magazine kit Now available, our own replacement floor plate which accepts the well known and superbly reliable Accuracy International 5 and 10 round magazines. The kit fits short action Rem 700 rifles only, and the AI mags, although designed to feed .308 and similar cartridges, may also be adapted to accept .223 rounds. This not only increase magazine payload to 15-17 rounds but also means that any weight of .223 bullet can be used. This overcomes the limitation of magazine fed .223 rifles based on AR-15 magazines which normally accept bullets up to a weight of around 77 grains. The kit consists of a floorplate and magazine liner with extended magazine release, two pillars, and two hex head bolts. The cost is £175 plus the cost of mags which are £50.00 for the 5 round and £60.00 for the ten round in .308 The cost for converting these to accept .223 cartridges is £30.00 each. They are not a "drop in" conversion and require a degree of fitting in particular stock inletting to ensure reliable feeding so we recommend installation by a gunsmith although we appreciate that many keen DIY shooters will be able to do the job quite happily. Alternatively we can supply and fit the kit to your stock for £300 plus the cost of mags. Special Offers Hogue stocks for Howa rifles....... available for short and long actions, with full length aluminium bedding block, sporting or varmint barrel, any colour you like as long as it's black...... £150 Choate 10/22 pistol grip stock (for factory barrel only) choice of black or olive drab ...... £50 To see some of our clearance offers please go to our New Products page as there's more space there!
