IF you find a local gunsmith to do the barrel work please share who. I've been keeping an eye out for a beat up Marlin 1895 for the receiver to build my own rifle.

Im using a guy in the Slidell area. I will let you know how it turns out but my confidence is not high.

Every gunsmith in the area....and I mean EVERY, sounded puzzled when I asked them if they could put a barrel on a Winchester and headspace it. You mean, you are a gunsmith and have never put a barrel on a Winchester....or at least know how? Ok.....left me puzzled.
