AllTerra Arms Precision Bolt Action Receiver Manufacturing

[@erock7382]

Being a machinist and looking for a new receiver this video satisfies my brain. Looking at your stuff now

[@allterraarms]

Thanks for watching and appreciating what we do!

[@Seanconnery1st]

Super cool to see the processes played out on your products; especially the receiver! Thanks, Isaac

[@allterraarms]

Thank you very much for following along Isaac.

[@richardkudrna7503]

What a lovely receiver! A great deal of machine time in each one, but you get goodness in exchange for cost.

[@robertqueberg4612]

A very nice presentation. This should be quite interesting to any viewer who has not had any shop experience in the past ten years. You have a well equipped shop for your products.

[@Spin-Drift-Ballistics]

Sweet... I'm definitely going to buy one of your receivers for my next build.

[@allterraarms]

Thank you very much. The bolts are even more of a process. We're happy with our products and process and appreciate your interest in giving them a shot.

[@Spin-Drift-Ballistics]

@allterraarms6943 Thanks... I live just down the road from Double Tapp Range, in MoHo. I enjoy shooting with Brandon when I see him there. Great guy! I gotta get by and see your place in town...

*2:00** Is there a reason you didn't you a pecking operation?* Are you able to avoid deflection? Heating? Do you hone the deflection out?

[@m4rvinmartian]

*1:00** Might be a dumb question. Are you showing a single off for this video?* *I'd run a fixture with 20-25 billets in it and do them all at once.*

[@nilegod1]

i made CNC hydraulic fixtures for s few years and this is amazingly similar to that

[@Booneboarder]

Nice video and info. Why not EDM or Broach the bore hole like everyone else? Nice finish product.

[@allterraarms]

Thanks for watching. We do EDM the bolt lug raceways, but first the receiver blank is drilled and honed to achieve a perfectly straight consistent bore which is supremely important because all further machining operations are fixtured or located off the receiver bore. We don't broach because its less accurate and induces more stress than EDM.

[@Booneboarder]

Thanks for the reply. One more question. Do you lap the bolt before selling your actions? Thanks again. @@allterraarms

[@allterraarms]

@@Booneboarder That we don't, under the assumption that whatever gunsmith handles the project would do it within their workflow. However if you ordered one and wanted us to, we'd gladly lap the bolt lugs before shipping.

[@douglasfurlong1]

I was wondering why not just do the whole inner bore and race lugs with edm? I saw some companies that just do the whole inner with edm, but it is a slow process, is that why you don't do this? Great video:)

[@allterraarms]

Gundrilling and honing the bore is actually slower and requires 3 different machines instead of just 1 (the EDM). A precision-honed bore is even straighter and more precise throughout than EDM.

[@taterbug70]

Drew!!!! Thats the real deal!! Holding that bubble wrap up to keep the honing oil from splashing out!! Swiss level craftsmanship!! 😂😂😂

[@allterraarms]

We've since made a permanent splatter shield that the Swiss would be proud of.

[@taterbug70]

@allterraarms hey, I work with my hands too and it's just a part of the process!!! It's fun to see other people getting by like me!

[@shredderegypt3394]

what is the long of the receiver that able to take long range cartridge ?

[@cyanidepain3452]

Love fabrication 💪

[@Alssmoothjazz]

Could you guys make a brand new 1903A3 receiver?

[@MokMok-qt9bx]

[@GLAJMAN]

How much bits or inserts do you use? Or how many receivers per bit or insert do you make? I'm not a machinist, but I like to watch these types of videos. Thank you!

[@hekhoqypgent5636]

What's the price for the Receiver,Can I get one

[@taterbug70]

Can youjust make a barrel with the reciever cut into it? No timing and no facing the parts in a lathe. Just one single barrel with reciever cut into it. I know you can't change barrels but how often does anyone do that anyway?

[@shroudedunity]

More often than you think.

[@cankurdzen4287]

What type of steel is used?

[@allterraarms]

416 stanless pre-hardened to 42 Rockwell.

[@TeddyBear-lb9ho]

👍

[@denosandra6527]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@KUKImang]

I like this machine

[@justinwonder22]

Nice GWAR hat

[@allterraarms]

You're not the first to pick out Matt's GWAR gear in our videos lol.

[@jasonrad9332]

🤘🏻

[@کورشاسدی-ذ6ب]

!!!!!!!!

[@reloadingfun]

gun drilled hole, hu hu

[@WA-rh8fl]

You need someone to work at your shop for two weeks for free just holla

[@shroudedunity]

Do all of these guys have Parkinsons? Why are they so twitchy and swaying back and forth?

[@allterraarms]

This camera didn't have image stabilization, and wasn't shot in the ideal frame rate. Causes jerky video. Fortunately, none of our guys have Parkinsons.

[@thommylee81]

Spettacolo bravissimi, but in your opinion, once the weapon is finished and delivered, can a handmade weapon be compared in terms of shooting precision to one of these weapons made with these machines? comunaqe beautiful video greetings from Italy ciqo

[@robertqueberg4612]

The answer to your question would likely rely heavily on the skills of the craftsman, and the time that was spent with the fitting process. When a hand fitted action was finished, could anyone afford the price that would be required? A better way to look at it might be to consider the number of actions that could be manufactured over a number of months, be each method, and of these lots, how many of each type would meet the standards of accuracy in the shop, and performance on the range. As a man who has worked in tool rooms as a trade, and for a gunsmith part time, when he had challenging jobs. I would tend to bet on the “space-age” actions like these. It is a great, thought provoking question.

[@thommylee81]

​​@@robertqueberg4612nice answer thanks
