You sir are not a rifle builder, YOU are an artist that puts his heart into what he builds
I've been gunsmithing professionally for 10 years, watching this video makes me feel like a kitchen-table knuckle dragging hacksmith. This is art, absolutely amazing work.
Thank you!
I've been doing gunsmithing professionally for 3 years and this just shows what levels i can strive for. It is humbling and awe inspiring.
@@mnrcustomllc8253 how does someone get in touch with you about doing a gun?
Even if you're not a firearm person, the care and craftsmanship on display here is near godlike. Well done!
exactly what i come to write , lol,, some ppl put a dislike, and i think its because of weapon for 95% of them. But we have to accept than this man have a fk expertise, meticulous and talent.
We dont have to like war for like weapon and vise versa.
@@aranoilean5480
- Having a gun doesn't necessarily mean you love war or bloodshed. But the love of weapons is in the blood of every real man. And it is difficult to call it a relic of the past or an innate defect, no matter what modern amorphous minorities say about it. Those same worthless consumers, for whom it is much easier to get down on your knees and expect mercy from a potential killer, than to take up arms to protect your tribe or your family from an internal or external enemy. This love of weapons came with the very first home-made tool for work or hunting, or for protection, along with the primitive club or flint axe. Which for the first time made and took in hand, if not yet a man, but no longer a monkey. And the most distant ancestor of modern man or Homo sapiens sapiens, the so-called skilled man or "Homo habilis", and a representative of the parallel branch of this species" Homo", the Rudolph man or"Homo rudolfensis". This love is embedded in us at the level of instincts and genetic memory. It gradually accumulated and developed from 2.8 million years, both with the appearance of the first Homo habilis-rudolfensis and up to 130,000 years, and with the appearance of the first direct ancestors of modern man, Homo sapiens sapiens, the so-called CRO-magnon man. And this development did not stop until the present day. Therefore should not be considered a craving or love for the weapon something to be ashamed of. Just the opposite is quite strange and shameful to consider weapons the embodiment of evil. What kind of weapon will be directly depends on its Creator, carrier and owner, namely on the person. And if a person is kind and intelligent, then the weapon in his hands will never sow evil. Or Vice versa, if a person is stupid and limited, then blaming the weak-willed weapon for evil deeds, and not the one who pulls the trigger, he is quite capable of doing evil deeds if this weapon falls into his hands.
I just salute the guy, would love to see his face though
And this is just a small portion of the work performed. It can take up to a year and a half to make some custom guns.
This rifle is AMAZING, and who doesn't like checkering. A lot of folks think that its an easy process until you actually do it. I have all the tools that I could ever use to do checkering but it is a long process that requires patience, skill, a steady hand and a lot of attention to the details. You are the master!
came for the calibre ... stayed for the workmanship...
I'm completely speechless and in total awe of what I've just watched- the craftsmanship (and patience!) blew me away let alone the final result. Any more words fail me. Wow.
I have been gunsmithing for over 40 years and this kind of work is a labor of love. Everybody 'wants' a rifle like this, but few are willing to pay for them. Thank you for a video that shows people a small portion of the hours that go into building a custom rifle. People didn't get to see the engraving work, gold inlay or color case hardening process, all additional time.
Thank you. I agree, very much a labor of love.
Giles O says it all. Plus he is a really good guy. He helped me with a CRF issue on a factory rifle a couple of years ago. He didn’t have to do that. But he took the time and turned it around for me.

¡Bien dicho!
Chances are you saw this by accident and watched the whole thing :)
Indeed !!!
yep
Yup
Sure did
Yes
I'm not a gun guy... I don't own any I don't want any. Ive shot them and decided they arent for me.
That being said...id literally have this on my wall...any human being that can put so much talent creating anything...whether its a watch...or a rifle at this level of care, detail, and dedication deserves to be praised for creating art. That is what this is.
Absolutely amazing!!; Thanks to a Master Gunsmith / Artist like you, CNC will never replace an skilled craftsman investing so much love, knowledge and experience to obtain such an astonishing Masterpiece. Love the .275 Rigby / 7x57 Mauser classic chambering.
BTW, contrary to another person's opinion, the music you're using in your awsome videos is great & clear. From my JBL & Sony headphones thru my Altec- Lansing PC's sound system to my Bose & Panasonic H.T., I just obtained a very relaxing & enlightening experience. You must be very proud of the stunning Custom K98 you so lovingly crafted. I'm pretty sure Herr Paul Mauser is sending you his best!!; Thank you kindly for sharing another great video & God Bless!!👍🇺🇸😊
Yep, amazing work. Enjoyed the build, but I have to disagree about the music. I muted the video and played my own soundtrack. Can't please everyone.
the amount of work goin into this IS ASTOUNDING!
What makes this even more incredible is you do it all. It is extremely rare to see a single person do the machining, milling, engraving as well as all the stock work .
It takes a good apprentice 4 or 5 years to reach exceptional levels in just one of those areas.
You are a true master that understands blending old world and new world craftsmanship.
This rifle only needs a fine presentation case.
I collect fine firearms from all over the world. Mainly English doubles. Even some of the oldest firms such as James Purdey & Sons have craftsmen that master in 1 or 2 areas .
You are a truly rare artist !
It inspires hope in a ever shrinking field of true craftsman.
Well said Eric! To master all of these skills is amazing! So few Gunsmiths can do fine hand work. I am old school, my files do a lot of work. Most younger guys like power tools.
I missed the part where he did the engraving. Can you timestamp it for me please.
Absolutely amazing work. Found it very therapeutic to watch
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
*Oh my god - this is a genuine work of art: it's positively **_gorgeous!_*

Great job! With respect. Retired, at my 60 I am just starting ...
By far one of the most beautiful rifles I've ever seen built in modern times. You are a true craftsman.
I love those scraper tools you built- definitely adding some to my arsenal! Really beautiful job, love the wood to metal fit and all. 👍🏼

A total work of art! Us mortals can only watch in awa.
If I could afford such a piece, it would be in a secure frame on my wall so I could see it every day. Sorta like the Mona Lisa frame. My hunting buddies would be allowed to see it once a year, on its birthday party.

Amazing craftsmanship, this channel is exactly what the firearms world needs to see.
Thank you!

Trabalho maravilhoso! Realmente pura arte!
Incredible craftsmanship. Whatever the cost it’s well worth it for the manual labour alone. What a dream piece of art. Cheers from Australia
Incredible craftsmanship, and a truly beautiful piece of functioning artwork at the end. I really hope the owner of this beauty treats it with the respect and care that it deserves so that it's still working and still looking amazing in 500yrs time!
I know nothing about guns, found your video via YT recommendations. I can’t honestly say where this “gun” ends and art begins. Your craftsmanship and attention to detail is inspiring. Thank you brother for sharing and for making an amazing calming video.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
You took the words out of my mouth amazing workmanship
It is always a pleasure watching craftsmen working. Thank You, Gentlemen!
Iam totally amazed of the craftmanship that goes in to this rifle. Thank you for showing it, best regards //Lars
There's Daniel Conroy the artist (ArtStation) and you the Smith,love your input to this art , enlightens me in my construction field to be creative.
Wow, just...wow! I "built" a 458 win mag safari rifle some years ago, and I must say that I am very proud of it. But I used ready made parts. You made yours from scratch! Very impressed!
A true work of craftsmanship, and a beauty. I would mount that above my bed, so I can admire it in my sleep.
Sorry buddy, I'm gonna marry her!!

Awesome, glad to see there's people still doing this and sharing the experience.
You gotta be the most patient person on the earth. I wouldn't bring myself to fire this rifle, stunning.
i mean he isn t the only one
Truly the difference between just a job and ones passionate WORK!
I would so love to work in this shop.
Hundreds and hundreds of hours put into a beautifully made rifle, even the hatching looks flawless. Very ornate looking receiver and bolt, the imperfect blueing just adds to its marvel
Sebuah seni yg sangat indah untuk membuat senapan...salam dari Indonesia..mas Aji.
Man, what a lovely peace of art. A thousand times Congratulations!!!!!!
Best regards from Brazil!
Was really surprised to see the barrel was not free-floated.
I was trying to figure this out as well.
With a Safari type build free floating is not always desired. You want strength and a solid support more than anything. This is amazing craftsmanship.
look at a pre-64 Winchester model 70, the barrel is held to the stock with a screw.(use as a club)
controlled feed (so you can operate the bolt while running)
knock away scope mounts, go to iron sights
Needed when you hunt animals that eat you.
My question is why 7×57mm Mauser on an African rifle?
For optimal accuracy free-floating is generally the way to go. On a rifle like this it's more important to me aesthetically to have a perfect wood-to-metal fit. This gun shot 3/4" at 100 yards which is more than sufficient for its intended use.
@@mnrcustomllc8253 Well done!
Wow your ability to freehand file chequering to the metal parts and the wooden parts is really impressive. The whole build is really amazing stuff but the freehand work looks machine made
i would cry like a girl if i drop that on the rocks, that is awesome piece!
Same here :) Thank you!
I would love to see a whole titanium one build
Love the color case hardening on action, with the quick disconnect rings. Great job!!!!
Thank you! I also love the look of color case hardening.
Absolutely outstanding work! A true masterpiece!
I couldn't believe how much care went into the checkering and all with single-point tools and no marking out! And then the engine turning on the bolt!
You do get an idea of why hand-built rifles like this are expensive but they really aren't when you see the amount of craftmanship that's involved.
That’s one lucky leftie that gets to own that beauty!
Katie R I am rightie but I use leftie bolt , so I can keep my finger on the trigger
I'm somewhat amb, but I prefer a pump action or semiautomatic. My deer rifle is a pump carbine , in 3006 but I'm thinking about a 308 in a 20 inch barrel, new loads putting it up with the 3006 . I'm leaving the weatherbys and such for my grandson, hope he will enjoy all my firearms when he gets to the age to use them .
Lucky? He has to be wealthy too, to be able to afford such a beauty.
@@bobsradio6025 The owner isn't a he ;)
@@katier8675 Congratulations!
Wow! That looks like a fine weapon! Masterfully done.
It's nice to see a master with hands that have grown from the right place and the right end
A true artist. Magnificent workmanship. You Sir need applause for your craftmanship.
I want to work for this guy!

I saw this and immediately thought "oh they must be pretty expensive." What an understatement that was. $16,000 on the first priced firearm I see god damn! But to be completely honest after watching the whole thing the prices are entirely justified and most likely well worth it.
I used to be a tuba player, I wanted to buy one and saw a $15k pricetag and that it was lunacy. Then saw how they got made and realized I was looking at a cheap one. The best players in the world regularly honk on $75-$100k horns!
You can't help but admire people with soo much talents & skills...
How in the holy hell did 2.3K people downvote this....
FANTASTIC work!
Absolutely spectacular! Wow! So beautiful. What craftsmanship. Sub’d.
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

As a lefty this rifle is all the more beautiful.
I just sent the link to my old army buddy, who, as a citóg, had to learn to shoot right handed when we changed from the FAL to the AUG.
Could have done without the Ben Shapiro in the background. lol
That was really entertaining. You took your time to craft that piece of art to perfection. Well done.
did I just watch a true craftsman at work. Stupid me I didn't think they existed anymore. A truly fascinating video and a beautiful job so well done with a perfect result
Depois me vem mostrar uns quadros velhos ,orriveis dependurados em paredes, dizendo ser obra de arte isso sim é uma verdadeira obra de arte e melhor funcional.
obra de arte é esse teu português de latrina
beleza e arte são coisas totalmente subjetivas, sua opinião pessoal não é a verdade absoluta
I've held a lot of beautiful hunting rifles in my time and known some talented smiths but damn, son you are something else. charge more than your asking ;) exceptional work really.
lol I'm super curious how one goes about suggesting someone starts charging more than 16,000 for a rifle "just because"....
IMO, a true craftsman probably wants to actually make them consistently, not cross fingers that more than 2 people will be willing to tickle a crafty capitalist ego with their wallet. Holding expensive rifles is a lot different than trying to sell them consistently. A lot of the skill here is hard to even begin putting a price on, but the rifle doesn't pay bills, the people who buy them do. #Tradesmentruth
I was surprised to see you "not" using a wobble fixture mounted to the tail stock to center the reamer and cut the chamber. Mad prop's for milling your own iron sights and Talley style receiver scope bases. Your wood working skills are stellar. As too the Teak oil, is this a proprietary blend?? The old rust blue method is always great to see, and who ever did your color case hardened finish Bravo. It was indeed a pure pleasure to watch a master of his craft at work..
Thank you! I've had issues with the wobble fixture causing chatter in the past. Instead I indicate the barrel in using a range rod, a spider and four jaw with less than .0001 run out. The teak oil is a blend with alkenet root. Turnbull Restorations did the color case work. I agree, they did a great job!
@@mnrcustomllc8253 Yes the wobble can be a bit trying to set-up, but went I worked for Weatherby Inc. in the Customer service department I'd have at times a pallet of barrels and receivers to fit and headspace. Thank you for the teak formula, I'll try it on a Siler stock I have. Yep, Doug Turnbull restorations is the best at color case. I sent them a Winchester model of 1894 that has a high Nickle receiver that had reverted to the white, they color cased it and the lever, simply beautiful. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to your next offering.
What an absolute beauty! Your craftsmanship is absolutely amazing.
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful with outstanding craftsmanship. Too fancy for what I put a rifle threw, I'd scratch and ding it a lot.
What a craftsmanship. You build an art, it's not a rifle it's a art.
Still a rifle though
Awesome master work. A real beauty. I’m in awe of how many years you dedicated to perfecting the many aspects of this gun smithing. This was a genuine treat to watch this beauty come together.
Thank you!
Wood moves when temperature &/or humidity changes. Wouldn't it be better to not use adhesive to connect stock & barrel? How about a one bolt floating barrel, like White Shooting Systems?
Wow! A masterpiece. I wish I could afford such a piece. Beautiful work.
You can. sell your house.
I was enthralled before I realized we have the same last name. Nice work cuz!
Amazing, this is to me pure art and true craftsmanship.
Thank you!
Hernando's comment above sates "CNC will never replace a skilled craftsman" which seems to sum up everyone's feelings. I certainly agree. This guy made the whole gun, just like the Penn. rifles used to be made. Ford's assembly line made things faster and cheaper to build, but there is nothing like a product of "true craftsmanship."
Marksmanship. On all levels. A true Master building a masterpiece. I would work for this guy for free, if a bed to sleep and the necessary food would be given.
Beautiful craftsmanship absolutely amazing,
45 minutes felt like 10. The is amazing
By far one of the most beautiful rifles I've ever seen built in modern times. You are a true craftsman.
Só vai receber um like por que não tem como dar mais rsrs ótimo trabalho parabéns
Your work defines craftsmanship. Time-worthy to watch till the end. Thanks
Thank you!
Classic craftsmanship and a classic cartridge, beautiful!
"welcome back to hardware unboxed..."
I think i might literally lose my mind trying to work to such a standard 😅
Beautiful work, skilled craftsmen still live
Que hermoso trabajo!!! Un artesano!!! En el metal y la madera!!!
Is it real? Beautiful, left handed, beautiful, stylish, beautiful and beautiful, may I marry her? Sweet Jesus what a gorgeous piece, from the bottom of my heart I congrat you for such a piece.
I thought only the British make these fancy guns. Are you only maker in USA building these old school rifles?
Ferlach in Austria also makes such beautifull handcrafted rifles, so do the german gunsmiths at Suhl and the Swiss in several places - in italy in Gardone are also traditional gunsmiths doing such crafts
you should visit it some day, and ask some gusmiths if you can watch their craft
Amazing! Such precision. A real artist.
Fora do serio, um trabalho magnifico .
and here i thought guns came from gun trees.
They get delivered by the gun stork.
beautiful work, that's for sure. But it would be a lot better with clues of what you are doing, which matérial you use, wood, metal, cement, oil and so on...
We'll work on doing more of that in future videos. Cutting oil is Viper Venom. Wood is exhibition grade Turkish walnut. Our receivers are made out of 8620. The epoxy bedding is Acraglas.
Just gotta love great workmanship!
One thing I wondered about, was that it looked like you put bedding compound all the way down the barrel. Did you grind back clearance, so it just was for sealing purpose, or did you leave it with the tight fit? I ask because my experience is that wooden stocks having contact with the barrel makes the rifle less accurate. The wood ain't dead, and moist and temperature makes it move...
Thank you! On this particular rifle I left it with full contact bedding. I agree with you that a free-floated barrel is optimal for accuracy. On this one the aesthetics of a perfect wood-to-metal fit was more important to me than benchrest accuracy. It was still plenty accurate for a hunting rifle (3/4 MOA at 100 yards) but probably would be even better with a floated barrel.
Understand. And I guess this is not the rifle you would use when the weather is nasty.
Clocking the screws in the butt plate is a skill not seen very often these days. Excellent work!
WHAT CAN I SAY THAT HASN'T BEEN SAID TWO OR THREE TIMES
I once bought my "wife" a rifle like this.
I am now divorced.
Ironically, I actually built this one for my wife. I can't use it though since it's a lefty and the wrong LOP
Do you want to marry me?
Out of all that, what truly amazes is the intricate designs on the metal work after. How do you do that?
The engraving was done by Mark Swanson in Prescott, AZ. The color case hardening was done by Turnbull restorations.
Man muß es mehrere Male angesehenen haben! Es ist ein Genuss bei einer solchen Arbeit zuzusehen! Das exakte, ruhige Arbeiten ist einfach nur überzeugend!
Best 45 min on UA-cam in a long while.
I really envy your country that has freedom and freedom.😔
don't envy it too much... they're trying to find ways of taking it all away through hidden little *sub sections* in these bills and laws they pass... that's why we need to fight back against all the attempts at pushing socialist ideals on the American people!
To me this is real art work!!! Not that painted crap on a wall. You are a true Artist and don"t let anyone tell you otherwise!!!
Thank you. That's very kind.
I watched 5 minutes and thought how the hell does this have 1k dislikes?
Then 20 minutes in the audio has looped 10 times and I had to shut it off and put on some other audio to avoid being another dislike. Shoot the audio guy!
Your work is absolutely stunning, flawless control with machine and hand tools. The filming was also superb. Absolute thumbs up, just not the volume knob which is a real shame as you lose all the machine shop noises that make it so intimate and compelling. Maybe some royalty free classical music next time?
