Anyone know this Montana gunsmith/stock maker?

Dave Hanen?


I was told he was out of Montana.

I just purchased a beautiful stock handmade that was supposedly crafted by him.

Judging from how old the rifle is I assume he may be an old timer.

Anyone heard of Dave hanen?

 

[North Idaho Hunter]

Bump, any old timers heard of Dave hanen?

Don't know who he is but that is a pretty stock.

Beautiful!

The "real" gunsmith?

Lol
I wonder if he can make a stock as good as he can straighten barrels? Need a special "log" to cut the blank out of!
funny though

 

[North Idaho Hunter]

Haha! Heck no!

such a beautiful piece of work, I'm afraid to take it afield!

 

[North Idaho Hunter]

The inletting is top notch, fit and finish - absolutely superb down to every last detail! I sure wish I could find more information on this craftsman!

 

[lancetkenyon]

Yeah, that is WAY too pretty for me to carry on a hunt.

I had a .250AI that had a SWEET cherry stock on it. Had to sell it, because I never took it out.

Better put that away before my drool puddle gets to it....

That might be the guy who was making the really high end wood stocks for Bruce at BAT.

Is this an older Southgate Mauser Weatherby? It looks like one. If so that is actually a factory stock believe it or not.

Remington 700. Although the tip of the fore end sure resembles a weatherby!

I'll look into this, thanks!
