Gunsmith for Hammerli Metal Work

Way back I recall reading about someone (Lou Lombardi?) grooving Hammerli barrels to accept regular .22 rimfire tip-off rings.  Is there anybody doing something similar, or drilling and tapping for some other small “tactical” red dot base?

I’m looking to put a 208 on a diet for some smaller statured people. 

Thanks,

Try Jon Shue, he has a lot of experience with the H guns

This is what I use on each of my three Hammerlis:

Absolutely top-of-the-line machining. No cutting on your gun required. I've posted about these earlier this year.

This 22 rail has worked great on both my Hammerlies


Doing this is just groovy man

My favorite way to mount optic!

Jon is that your personal 208, it sure makes it very clean looking with a cut dovetail. That would look good with their CompC model too, less tube on the rear. I can still interchange filters and those apertures between the 9000 and my CompC 4moa. Very nice.

It’s my baby Stan. Sams lined barrel. Have two of them

The Basic Xesse SF has 11MM dove tails and they make a weaver mount which I use

This was the easy button.  Not having to ship the gun back out was the deciding factor.  I have one on order with the RMR/SRO/407C/507C base, and an extra Docter/Burris/Vortex base.

Same here, mine is with a Vortex Venom.  Kevin Wilkins' product is excellent design/machining and he is helpful and easy to work with.  Switching back and forth between the dot and iron rear sight involves one hex screw takes about 10 seconds.
