[QUOTE="Grifm, post: 2053322, member: 116508"] I am looking for recommendations for a good gunsmith in the safe area that has experience with bolt actions, specifically Mauser actions. My father in law is giving us a rifle he bought back in the 70s when he was stationed in Germany. I don’t know much about it and haven’t been able to find much on the Internet. It was made by Forest, it is built on a Mauser action (I think M96 because it’s a short action), it’s chambered in 308 win. Other then when he showed it to me at thanksgiving I don’t think it’s been touched in 30-40 years. When I get it home I’m going to clean it up but want to have a smith check it out/make sure it’s safe to fire. I want someone with experience with similar actions and someone I would trust to do the work/not wreck the rifle. thanks in advance for any recommendations. -Matt [/QUOTE]
