Lefties of the world unite! You can now have nice things that go boom just like our RH friends.
Selling a semi-custom 280 AI. All work was done by Tumbleweeds Custom Rifles in Austin TX.
-Action is a new commercial large ring Mauser action by Zastava. It is the same action as the Interarms Mark X and the Remington 783. The action face has been squared and the lugs have been lapped. Chamber was cut with a SAAMI reamer.
-Barrel is a K&P (http://www.kandpgunco.com/) 1:9 twist, 5R, #3 contour, stainless. It has been fluted 6 straight. Barrel is threaded 5/8x24 with a blended cap. 24" finished length.
-I kept the factory safety and trigger and had the smith give it a trigger job to approx 3 lbs. I had contemplated replacing them both but smith was a competitive shooter and advised I should keep them and the trigger turned out great.
-Barrel and action cerakoted sniper gray
-I didn't want to wait on MacMillan so its bedded in a Boyd's stock
I think that's most of the relevant stats...feel free to ask if I've forgotten something.
I'm onto a new project and have a couple rifles in this caliber so this one is going to a new home.
I'm into this build for about $2300. Selling new and unfired aside from test round by the smith for$1750 $1500 net to me. I'll take care of my FFL, you take care of yours.
Happy to send pics or answer questions.
