Richard Franklin Stress-Free Pillar Bedding DVD

[Elk_Guapo]

Does anyone have a copy of this DVD they're willing to part with? I've read quite a few bedding threads, and watched some videos on YouTube, but I'd still like to watch an in-depth bedding video to avoid butchering my rifle!

I have the "Inletting, Bedding, & Clear-Coating Stocks - 2 DVD Set" from Richards custom rifles that I would part with if that's what you're looking for?

This is on the main site. Maybe this will help. I know he used to sell a video on bedding. Go to main site and type in rifle bedding and it will bring up articles.

Thread 'A “quick bedding” tutorial'

Dec 19, 2019

This is what i call a quick bed job. This would be used on a hunting rifle with a very loose inlet and the customer doesnt know he wants a full bed job. This is the bare minimum you need to do on any stock really. They say some stocks are drop in but ive never seen one that was, so this is easy enough anybody can do it- hopefully it will give you the confidence to do it to your rifle if its not bedded.
First we scuff the front ring area to remove the finish. We also put some gouges in there to give the epoxy some “tooth” to hold onto. Also make plenty of room around the lug so when you...

Cannot help you with the R.F. videos but they seem very hard to find.

Does anyone know if Richard is still in business? I've had a few people reach out regarding the DVD's. Per google his FFL expired and the website is no longer functional. When I bought these in 2021 from his website they literally came as burned DVD's. IF he's no longer providing them AND there's a consensus here that it's acceptable I could certainly make them available to members who want them at no profit for myself. Obviously, if he is still selling them through other channels then I wouldn't do this and I would just sell my copy.

I emailed Richard a few days ago. He said he's no longer building rifles or selling the DVDs.

A web archive snapshot of his website from 2016 shows his material is copyrighted and all rights are reserved.

Here's his email if you want to reach out and ask about providing copies of the DVDs:

I would be interested in obtaining the dvd’s also. Everywhere I have looked they are not available. They have been available from time to time from people in the past but I have not been able to obtain them.
Thank You for the link. The ones I found did not work.
