If not, its likely a caliber that he cant get blanks for right now. What is he building you?

.300 blk out

That shouldn't be a problem.

I hit up Jim last night DT. I should get on the phone with him by the end of the week.

I noticed that his website is down. I hope he's ok. And I hope my barrel order with him from a month ago is OK as well.

I am able to pull up his site just fine.

Thanks for the heads up.. I checked my IPhone, and it appears I was able to bring up his website on that OS. I could not from my PC. Only website that I've had issue with? In any case, my mistake probably.

I just got caught up with Jim last night. Things have come a long way with his family situation, so he’ll be back in the shop pretty much full time now. There’s going to be some big changes with AGW over the next couple of months.

So any word or ETA on my barrel?

[Apache]

DT,

My apologies.....my life has been pretty hectic lately. Phil was able to get in touch with me and I did get your barrel finished. The paint is curing and I hope it should be ready to ship by Wednesday. It has a recommended cure time of one week, but it should be able to finish curing on the way to you.

Thx for your patience and understanding.

Jim

Very appreciative and excited.
Thanks Jim

Now how about taking care of this one as well...

Good Luck.
He's had my money since February 2016. Yes, twenty months, and still no barrel.
I posted regarding this last spring, and Lonewolf immediately offered his help, getting in touch with Jim.
His daughter was in an accident this summer, and thankfully is on her way to a good recovery. This of course deserved all his attention -as it should.
He last emailed on August 7 that my barrel would be among the first he would complete once he was back in operation.
His website states he is now taking new orders.
He continues to advertise custom barrels on eBay, stating: "The barrel will be completed in 3-5 business days".
I emailed him again this week; will post when I receive a reply.

Will do........I'll try to contact him via PM....

Maybe he will see this post and I can get it straightened out.

Sent him a PM.......if anybody sees him posting here........ask him to get in touch with me via PM here on Savage shooters.

Thx!

Jim,
Sorry to have been so long to reply. I was away from the site recently.
I sent you a PM reply, and also an email on the same services we have always used.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

And, a big THANKS to Mr. F. for all his attention and assistance!

[Mnshooter]

UDATE!
I received an email yesterday from Jim, requesting I call him.
He was very apologetic, explaining that he has had a lot of trouble with emails, sometimes resulting in deletions before he saw them.
He is MORE than taking care of my order, with a generosity I will not detail, but will only say:
He is doing far more than he needed to do -or ever would have been expected to do, by anyone.

I hope everyone who participated in this thread, among others, will read this.
