I picked up this bolt carrier a few years back from a fellow board member as I needed the hold open parts to restore another carrier. With the scarcity of parts lately I started thinking it may be worth restoring this carrier to use as a shooter. I know Frontline has reproduction handles and I know I've seen the hold open parts somewhere (just can't find them now) so it comes down to a bit of welding and touch up. I know Apfeltor isn't taking on work and I tried reaching out to another guy that had done restoration work like this but got no reply and his website is now gone. Does anyone know of someone that would be a good candidate for restoring this. The carrier itself looks really good and I don't think anything was modified for .30-06 even though that is stamped on it which was probably a Norwegian conversion in the day.
Thanks for any advice or assistance.
