otherwise know as Gun Barrel Specialties in Fort Walton Beach Florida

Does anyone know if they are still in business ?
I got a generic cell phone service outgoing message and no answer to an email enquiry.
Maybe they are on break for the holidays , but I would like to know if they are closed permanently so I can start looking elsewhere for a new barrel.

Most manufacturers shut down for a few weeks around Christmas. I would try them again the first week of January.

Last fall I tried to contact them however their web site appeared to be closed. The e-mail I sent came back undeliverable.They did make me a Winchester replacement barrel for a 38-55 lever action rifle that I received in early summer. I was happy with it!

Some options are:1. http://mikehunterrestorations.com/barrels.html
2.contact John Taylor via PM on this forum. He made a new barrel for my Winchester 1892 in 25-20. He is making me another 25-20 barrel for my Kimber.He does excellent work!

I got a phone call from them today. They are indeed still in business and will be making me a barrel.
