[QUOTE="Canhunter35, post: 1678716, member: 101677"] I never really thought about it either until feenix started this thread, but what jecustom said got me thinking, I’ve seen some of the antique lever guns a local gun smith has ‘healed’ from their decrepit state, that needed all the action internals, new wood, a new barrel turned to original dimensions, or ground octagonal that he did himself, while restoring the rifle to the closest he could to the factory original vs the list of composite stocks, custom actions, barrel, etc that a person can choose then have a gunsmith chamber the barrel and bed the action, maybe a cerakote job. There’s definitely some muddy waters around the word custom. I think if every part of a rifle has been touched ur full custom territory. Take factory tikka in 260, have a gunsmith true the action and ream the barrel to a 260ai, then install a new stock and trigger...full custom, because every piece was altered to the owners desire [/QUOTE]
