In need of gunsmithing services

[Bealzybub]

Hi there. Occasionally I need some little stuff done and I sure could use the service of a local gunsmith. Do we have any here?

Yup, there are a few on here, including ones people here use that aren't on the boards.

Personally, i recommend @Velzey but you'd have to check if he's available right now.

 

[Bealzybub]

I think he must be extremely busy. I've contacted him several times in the past year or so with no response.

If the smith is good, they're busy. That's one of the ways to tell if they are any good.

Well at this point all I need is the barrel knocked of a model 70. Anyone?

Velzey had a heath issue over the last year - he should be back up and running as far as I know.

He's worth waiting for if you can.

 

[Bealzybub]

Well, I attempted to contact him over a year ago with no return contact. No harm no foul. I bought a Krieger barrel 18 months ago for the model 70 and its not that I'm in a hurry so much as I'd like to get this project rolling. As I said, at this point I just need the barrel knocked of the model 70. Does anyone have a referral I can call or that can contact me?

Worth a Trip to the 'Couve and see the good folks up there if needed, Brimstone does good work, and has helped me out a few times. NW Firearms as well, SK beat me to it!

Revelation Arms in Aloha, Roger did some 1911 sight work for me, high quality work, quick turn around and reasonably priced...
