David Norin

Chicago-area gunmaker David Norin can and does do everything on a custom gun except the engraving. Shown here are some examples of his work. The action is a Standard Model, which came out of the great Oberndorf Werke in the 1930s. Norin fitted a Fisher round bottom magazine and trigger guard assembly, added a new bolt knob, suitably checkered, and polished, ground and stoned the action to the stage shown in the photo. The barreled action is a Dakota .22 RF to which has been added a sculpted bolt knob, a quarter-rib with express sights, and added stoning and polishing. This barreled action will be stocked as a mini-African stalking rifle. Finally, the completed rifle is a Mauser action 7x57, fitted with Fisher round bottom magazine and trigger guard assembly, an Oberndorf style bolt knob, three-position safety, Blackburn trigger, and a Lyman 48 peep sight. The rifle is stocked in a very nice stick of Turkish walnut and checkered in a point pattern at 22 LPI. The rifle is intended to be a deep woods deer rifle.
