JR FIREARMS Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 Hi ladies and gents, some of you will be aware of the rifle work i do, some of you will not be. I just wanted to introduce myself and share a few recent jobs etc. So I thought i’d post a few pics of the services we offer (sorry for picture quality-not sure how else). Any questions, just ask. 😁 And for any that are interested there are more pictures and videos on my social media pages and website. Best regards Jack.

ezmobile Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 I'd also like to give a thumbs up to Jacks work. I rocked up at his workshop a few months ago to get a barrel threaded and a brake fitted which was done while I went for a stroll, and then got a jump start for my car afterwards! Can't say fairer than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR FIREARMS Posted July 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Weirdly you’re the second car i’ve had to jumpstart, i may have to start “charging” for the service 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR FIREARMS Posted September 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 Making my way through another batch of bolt knobs. 90% of the machining is done in OP 1, then they are turned around and finished in OP 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR FIREARMS Posted October 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Rangey’s 5 round test groups using factory ammo and home loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangey Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Certainly shoots... That's after 20 bedding rounds and crap weather I would say it can only get better after a few more rounds, but don't think I need more load testing after my first 5 rounds with home loads.. Just try a few more of the same.. Big thanks to Jack and the work he's done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR FIREARMS Posted October 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 I mostly forget to take pictures of builds, this one went out the door this week. Pierce custom action, Bartlein barrel chambered in 6mm XC, fluted barrel, Bix N Andy 2 stage trigger, HS Precision stock and DBM. The barrel profile didn’t fit the stock so i 3D modeled the barrel in my CAD software and created a reverse image. Then generated a 3D toolpath for my Haas CNC mill, and machined it for a perfect fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR FIREARMS Posted October 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Some left hand bolt fluting from today. For left hand bolts the helix direction is changed to match the action for both looks and direction of rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR FIREARMS Posted November 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 Finally caught up after the arrival of my daughter, and have been working out how to fit in shifts in the workshop. So i finally managed to get the the subplate fitted to the Haas CNC mill. This subplate weighs 200kg and was a bit of task lifting it in palce with only 2 people. Now i have the task of re-aligning the mill and setting up all the tools. The subplate extends the workspace of the mill to allow enough space for barrel fluting, as well as working on larger pieces like stocks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
