baldie Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 After several conversations, and following on from a large original order, i am pleased to announce that Lawton actions, have appointed us, South Yorkshire Shooting Supplies, the official, SOLE distributor for their complete line of actions in the United Kingdom. this is effective immediatly, however, there are a few outstanding action orders to be filled.I believe Chris at Anglo, and Andrew at riflecraft are currently waiting for some. These will be delivered as per these firms previous contracts with Lawton. We are in the process of putting together a 100 action order now, so anyone with any special requests, please get in touch.We will be stocking all the popular ones, but lawton also do wsm,s .338,s , cheytacs etc. ALL trade enquiries are most welcome, and hopefully now we are distributors, there will be better pricing structures etc, so all can benefit. We are not however, going to be distributors of their barrels, but obviously they can be added to any order also. thanks fella,s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trapper Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Well, good for you guys & I hope you make a success of it. Given the backbiting that goes on around gunsmithing on some forums, I hope you have a big parapet to duck behind if Lawton mess up on the shipping?

Jager SA Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Top job Baldie, thats good news, at least there is another good supply of top quality actions in the UK again... Good luck with it, I will have my order in soon as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 This has only got to be good news Baldie, with the States getting harder to obtain products from its nice to see SYSS stepping to the front and doing the biz. Lawton make excellent actions, now we can choose bettween Surgeon and Lawton "off the shelf" Can you advise if there is any intention to bring Lawton barrels in as well ?
