It's interesting that many Pieper guns around the turn of the century were advertised as being "Machine Made". Now, they're considered JABCs. I read a while back that the " Big Three" in England had all gone to CNC several years ago. It's probably totally eliminated the job title "Action Filer"..

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
