[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 194483, member: 10"] Adam32, The way I understand it, any sporting good shop can put rifles up for sale on cabelas sight, kind of like an E-bay for rifles. I have no problem with that. I have no problem with Christensen Arms taking a used rifle and converting the barrel to a carbon wrapped barrel and putting it up for sale. I do have a problem with the fact that this barrel is well used, is chambered in a cartridge I designed and the potential buyer will associate with me and they are charging nearly $3500 for it. I simply do not know how they can take a large contour barrel, turn it down to a very small diameter sleeve and wrap the barrel without the internal bore dimensions changing to some degree. Again, my only issue is that its my name on that chambering and I would suspect the rifle will not shoot up to my standards and I do not want a customer purchasing that rifle and associating it with me as I am sure it will not meet my 1/2 moa standards with the conversions that have been done to that barrel. That is my only concern, do not want someone to get burned for $3500 on a very used rifle. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
