Additional information:

Thank you for you inquiry regarding our Farquharson kit.

We currently have a limited number of Farquharson action kits available.
The kit consists of 11 castings and a complete set of instructions. All
pins, screws and springs as well as the swivel are made by the builder. The
main receiver has been made slightly larger to provide a greater safety
margin. However, it can be machined down to the original size.
Construction options available to the builder include firing pin
improvements, stock mounting, safety and possible Quick Take Down
construction. The QTD version requires a different receiver.

An experienced machinist/gunsmith shoould be able to complete this project
in a few short weeks. In addition, since we have no control over
construction of these actions, we must of necessity make the following
notification:
This kit is offered for INSTRUCTIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.

Introductory pricing for the kit is $368.00 which includes shipping and
handling.

We originally had these kits cast overseas. After receiving the first
order, we found a couple of small errors in the castings. These errors are
easily corrected via TIG welding.

Due to unreasonable delays caused by the US govt, we had the molds shipped
to us. The aforementioned errors mentioned have been corrected and all
future kits will be cast here in the US. The molds are now in the hands of
our US supllier and we are awaiting word as to when we will have more kits
available.

The delays also created problems insofar as the instructions haven't been
completed. Enough are done (about 15 pages of instructions, drawings and
photos) that one should have no problem getting well along towards building
an action.

In the event you desire to purchase a kit, please make out a check or money
order to Action Castings, LLC and mail to:

Action Castings, LLC 407 Goddard, Trinidad, CO 81082

We also suggest you request having the latest instructions sent via email at
the time you place your order. We have found this to be the most expedient
method until the printed version is complete.

Sincerely Yours,

You might even wish to add a few extra notes:

The action kits are currently cast from 8620 steel alloy. This alloy is
great for color case hardening. I'm sending along a couple of photos of the
one I built from scratch using 8620 solid bar stock. Now that we have a US
supplier, we plan on making the kits available (on special order) in both
stainless steel and 4130 steel.

Also, the Quick Take Down version won't be available until we get some
samples from our supplier as this feature require the supplier to make a
special small mold in order to add material to the front of the castings.

The action is suitable only for flanged cartridges having a maximum flange
OD of less than 3/4".
