[QUOTE="skipglo, post: 2088668, member: 87776"] Which then asks the question....If I were the Best known gunsmith and I now do what is now readily available to all.....I buy the same barrel from a supplier that you can, the same stock that you can, same trigger and same action and put in the same 4 BOLTS....DO I NOW CALL IT CUSTOM? If however....my own qualification here I guess....just me....the only difference comes when I true the action, square the bolt face, machine the chamber and adjust the headspace to perfection...then I believe CUSTOM WORK has been performed. Good Lord... I think the original question in its intent was true....folks doing it at home are just playing with a FOUR PIECE...unless you count the FOUR BOLTS ( trigger 2, stock two) LEGO SET. It offends me and is an offence to true gunsmiths to says I just Built a new custom rifle doing it this way. Baking a cake is more work! [/QUOTE]
