The rifle's owner is Mark.

Somehow, this didn't surprise me.

Many thanks for sharing it Mark.

Not really much to offer, but John's son, Joe, was a good friend of mine when he was head of Ranger Arms Co, in Gainesville, TX. We hunted together many times and I stopped at the plant almost every time I went to town. He later moved to Sherman, TX and opened his own Dubiel Arms Co. to build his own designed rifle.

Don, I spent the better part of a day with Joe Dubiel at Sherman, TX and interviewed him. He was in poor health at the time and the shop was closed. We did go over to the shop for a while and I had a look around. I'm also in contact with John Jr. who has promised me some family history and pictures of his dad. Know anyone who has a John Dubiel rifle?
Thanks,

Michael i still have my Dubiel stocked hoffman shot gun.you looked at it in vegas a few years ago.will you include sxs in an article. Mark Cooper NRA Member

Mark,

I will, most likely make mention of his work on shotguns, there is a Dubiel stocked Parker 28gauge here in Anchorage. I'll not get away with publishing shotgun pictures in PS but at a later date I may take on the Custom Shotgun makers as I have done the rifle makers, in a different magazine.
