Here is my High Wall in 22/303. 24" octagon barrel.
John Pell (KOGOT) of Trinidad Colorado did the metal work, must be around twenty five years ago now and it was stocked by a young guy at that time who had just left the gun smithing school there. Mark Pharr who moved down to Austin, Texas.
The wood was supplied by a guy who I can't recall his name and who was an instructor there at the school as well. He had a stock on the wall of his workshop at home, showing the right hash he made the first time he used a stock duplicator.
The reamer and re-loading dies were made up by an old guy in Raton who again I cannot remember his name.
I think I can remember another instructor at the school when I was shown around and met John Bull, mainly because he was English and was in the Army in Malaya the same time I was in 1956. I think that was his name. Nice guy.
Johns wife Margaret said his trade name of Kogot was because she called him the kindly old gunsmith of Trinidad because he never charged enough for his work.
