Who and how to rebarrel my gun

I am just getting myself sorted again to start importing barrels and actions.
But have had real drama in the past with sending into WA, not certain I want that drama again.
Drama with a WA client is the main reason I stopped smithing for a while.

Hi Brett
Will you be getting any of those new Turbo firing pins in?
I’m thinking of putting one in my sporter/practice gun.

I certainly can, is it your old V1 action?

Yes I’m old school, I only have the early 2 lug V1’s Turbo’s a little mod and I can open and close the bolt with one finger and it can only be done on the early ones. Before the 3 lug crowd start telling me I need a 3 lug it should be remembered my LV has been to 8 nationals and won 4 of them and my other Turbo has won a world championship. My view out school is better.
I was going to run some tests with my sporter with the new FP around the time you stopped doing your thing, I’ll get started testing next week and see what happens.
