That little jeff handles and shoots very well. I love the lite weight. Recoil is very doable at 9.5lbs. My postal scale said 9.1 my smith’s said 9.4. Frank

What’s the take on this? Would Ken Owen or Champlin work on this if any issues arise?
I honestly have no clue as to it’s true value although it seems like it’s priced well if it’s all original(?). I also don’t know about the overall quality of it but they (Searcys) seem to be well regarded generally speaking. It does look like it’s in good condition.

I don’t know how much Ken Owen is doing nowadays as it seems like I remember someone saying he was slowing down. The concern folks have expressed due to Mr. Searcy possibly not being willing or able to work on it is a mute point IMHO. Personally I would send a double of any make to JJ Perodeau knowing he can sort out any fixable issues.

Completely agree here. Just got my DR back from JJ…perfect!

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
