CUSTOM-DEFINED

Factory-made rifles have certainly come a long way in the last few decades. It is hard to imagine an application for which a ready-made rifle, as well as the other necessary accessories such as scopes, ammunition and the like, is not readily available. Add to this the fact that almost every firearm manufacturer is constantly refining its products to keep up with not only ever-evolving tastes but also its competition. It is thus fair to say that we, the gun-buying public, has never been so spoilt for choice. For some, however, a factory rifle lacks something. In most instances, that “something” is an individual touch, most likely brought on by the hankering to own something unique and personal, something nobody else has and can be cherished and enjoyed for seasons to come. I believe it is for this very reason that custom-rifle builders are kept busy churning out fine rifles for discerning individuals. By JOHAN VAN WYK
