Need good gunsmith for Rem 7600 barrel shortening, in Mount Vernon area

sji-guy · May 8, 2011

I have a Remington 7600 with a 22" barrel. I would like to have the barrel shorten to 18-1/2", have it crowned and the front sight remounted. Does anyone know what this should cost, and know of a trusted gunsmith in the Mount Vernon area?

I've been told that Kesselring's has a gunsmith again. They're located on old 99 north of Burlington, just north of the Dirt Race track.

Also, there is a good gunsmith farther south in Lake Stevens.

This guy does tons of work for the Bench Rest shooters locally as well as Nationally. He's good. His shop is located behind his house and he is "semi-retired". May have to call to schedule and definitely call for directions.

There are probably more gunsmiths around but finding good ones is the issue. Not a trade that everyone is going into anymore.

Thank you very much for your information. I do appreciate it. I have purchased guns at Kesselrings, and it's great to have their gun shop still in operation and so close by. I will give Clowards a call.
Thanks again,
Stu
