Carved
Kibler’s Longrifles has combined it’s expertise in CNC machining with the company’s background in producing high end custom Longrifles. The result is a rifle with beautifully designed and executed carving available at an unbelievable price point of $375 add-on
Carved in nearly all possible locations, the designs are such that a harmonious and beautiful rifle results. A rifle of this quality was previously only available from a high-end custom builder for a significant price tag, and many years-long wait times, but things have now changed.
Stocks for this kit are being produced on new and highly sophisticated CNC equipment. This will result in a kit that is even easier to assemble as compared to our current offerings.

A gun provided "in the white" will be completely assembled and functional. The wood will need sanded and finished. The metal will also benefit from some cleanup. This is typically a little light filing on the rough spots followed by a little polishing with abrasive paper. The metal can be left in this condition or can be blued, browned, aged etc.
Your kit will arrive assembled, ready for you to customize and finish.
FINISHED RIFLES
We recommend the work of talented and experienced gunsmith, Chuck Edwards, for those who would like additional finishing work done on their Kibler Rifle. He can be reached at (573) 421-5098 and his online page is found on Facebook. He has finished out many Kibler rifles and does fantastic work. The pricing will vary depending on the work and should be discussed with Chuck.

Out of stockI could not have been happier with the quality of this kit. The inletting was very precise. For me, if something fit a little tight it was easier to file off just a few thousandths of metal than work on the wood. Time wise which always seems to be a question - I timed the build very closely. If all I wanted to,do is slap it together and go out and shoot it I could have done that in about five hours. I took my time ,enjoying the process, and have forty hours total in. I took all metal and wood finishing to 300 grit. The flat filing on the barrel was, actually, very satisfying and the first two or three sides took about thirty minutes each, then I got faster and the remaining sides took just twenty each. It came out great.
I love my Kibler long guns, quality is beyond expectations, Bree Jackson has been great support upholding warranty issues.
1. Even taking care for the barrel lugs while drawing filing, I inadvertently broke the bottom lug by squeezing it in the leather that protruded from the side of the vice jaws. Thankfully, there are three additional lugs that hold the barrel in the stock.
2. Trouble sighting in the rifle was, in part, due to the front sight. After installing the sights, I failed to “clinch” them down…as Jim showed us in his video. Upon discovering this problem during my second range session, I used a screwdriver to stabilize the front sight. Aside from my flinching😧, the rifle performed perfectly.
Thanks Jim, Bree, and crew for providing us with a quality product so that we may all be “custom rifle builders”!

Super fast lock. Can’t ask for a better made, better performance lock
The Woodsrunner kit is very good. i had to work on the patch box lid to get it to lock in place and tread the nose cap for the screws. now i am sanding the stock for finish. Taking my time, Over all a very impressive kit. i will be purchasing another kit hopefully this fall. i want to think you for the outstanding product y'all produce.

Purchased 2 identical kits to work on with a friend new to the sport. This is my second Kibler kit (SMR first kit). Very high quality components in a highly finished state. Had to do a little work to fit the breech into the stock. Unfortunately the screw holding the matchbox lid spring came through the lid when snugged down. I will order another to finish the gun. My friend is doing well with his kit and enjoying the build with me.

Liquids will not ship in the kit box. There are different regulations that apply to the chemicals that we sell and they will need to ship ground, when the kits will ship USPS Priority Mail. Plus, it would really stink if a liquid were to leak on your beautiful new kit!
Order tracking
You will receive tracking information when your item ships. For kits, you will be contacted before shipment and after shipment so there is no need to worry about a kit box shipping when you are out of town. All other packages will ship when available and you will be emailed a tracking link.
