I want to know more about D'Arcy Echols , how would I find out about him?

Also, did he say why a no-go on the remington 30s or enfield?

I understand that the Granite magnum mauser and Hartmann & Weiss Mauser are top notch.
There is a lot of information on them.

The builders that are over seas, like Dumulon and johansan { forgive spelling } Do they make a dependable rifle? I have looked over there websites and they offer complete rifles. How long would it take to get one?

Are all these mausers from differant companys basically the same? Do they use original mauser blueprints?
