Gunsmiths?

[MuttCat]

I've poked around, and around, and maybe I'm missing it....someplace here that identifies persons who offer gunsmith services? Maybe just here in the state? A listing in vendors?

I'm not speaking of bore sighting, or scope mounting, but school trained or otherwise professional folks.

What are you looking to get done?

I watched a few AGI dvds. Does that count?

Gunsmiths specialize in different specialties, because most of the simple gunsmithing people do themselves.

Only if you get a Dremel tool too.

Avon Gun has a good gunsmith.

Where are you located and what need done?

I'm in the Cobleskill area. I've searched online and across the state the listing are slim...probably not because there isn't any, they just don't advertise. And true, some specialize, which makes it even more difficult to track down the specialist you might need. Rumor in town that there is a young guy, school trained, working retail and saving to open a shop, but at present unavailable.

Myself, I'm planning a rolling block conversion, and I've an old military piece that needs to be checked over, I'd like it to be a shooter. And some dovetails cut and so on....

There used to be a gunsmth with a great reputation locally who moved to PA when unSAFE passed. I’m guessing he’s probably 3 hours from you so not ideal. Maybe if you call him you can determine if he does the work you’re interested in and if worth the drive. If not maybe he can recommend someone closer than you.
