Curl,

That's an intersting thought. One which I sadly never gave much thought too. Perhaps because I was never intending to sell any off my creations. However I have done so. I do have a few questions for you though.

1- Do you think that the proof house would be the ones liable in the event that one of the guns they proofed blew up?

2- In the event of a no answer for above, then what is the real or perceived value of the proof?

3- If you demonstrate or could document what you put the gun through on "proof" would you still gain some of the same "protection"?

4- Would this be any different than anyone who converts any old mauser to one of the newer higher pressure rounds? If there is a difference why? You would still be using the action which was originally used for a round with less pressure.

5- I asked this before and never received an answer do you or anyone who has work done to put a gun back on face have it reproofed? As the law reads when it was off face it was no longer in proof and the repair of such would not put it back into proof?

6- How do you think the bigger companies view this issue? I mean Cabelas, Westley Richards and others have conversion guns on their sites for sale?

I really have none of the answers but wanted your input as a bloodsucker.... er... lawyer

.
