I would guess that some of the machines will be difficult or impossible to replace. Glad to hear nobody was injured

Had.

Just spoke to Kathy Dichter, she said they plan on rebuilding.

And no... I didn't ask about my barrel. That's not what is immediately and ultimately most important right now.

Yes,I got an e-mail from her and she said 6 months to a year to rebuild, hopefully. She also said you could follow their progress on facebook. And they get e-mail. That's great news for us. Don't need to loose master craftsmen. Hope they can find the machines they need to make the same quality barrels

I would expect arson from an activist. Who knows.

Did you not read the article in the first post? They were working on a machine and the electrical sparked and ignited the fire.

I called today, Monday, to see if any barrels made it. Was told 13 were not damaged that they know of so far. 12 were somewhere else getting fluted and 1 was out to have a Cerakote finnish put on. They are going through all the damage and working with the insurance people and will contact us people that lost barrels when they catch their breath.

Crying shame. Great barrel sand good people to deal with. I hope they make a comeback!

This is the saddest news I have heard since Sid Goodling passed away only because I knew him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Pac-nor in their time of need.
