[QUOTE="ken snyder, post: 447795, member: 26019"] I am one of the little guys. If it were not for pride of accomplishment there would be very little pay off. For some reason gunsmithing takes a lot more time than other comparable machine projects. Customers can't afford my stocks and they can find what they perceive as good used rifles for less than the price of a good barrel installed. competition is fierce, liability is high and financial investment is large. So in short don't do it backwards. I can honestly say that most gunsmiths are able to hang in there for the long haul because there finances are not at the mercy of today. [/QUOTE]
