I will only take my stuff to one place, and it's not so much a disregard for other places, but strong praise for the one; Copeland Custom Gunworks AKA @Velzey
However, be prepared to potentially wait a long time due to how in demand his work is.

 

[SuperShady]

Thoroughly appreciated. Thank you.

I dropped off two pistols with Copeland Gunworks a few weeks ago. He told me should about 4 weeks.
But I know every job is different.

A couple of years ago, (partly in jest), I tried to discourage folks away from Tim, just so he would be free to only work on my projects, but down deep I knew it was in vain, as his excellent work and fair prices ran past my efforts and he's busier then ever.
You couldn't meet a nicer family man in my opinion.

+1 for Copeland Gunworks ...don't worry about how long it'll take...know it'll be done right!

 

[SuperShady]

Thank you all!

If you can even get him to answer you. After two phone messages and two emails and a week waiting between each, still no reply.

I got the call. I'm going to pick up the pistols today. I'm excited.

You didn't elaborate what you were planning?

Anyway.....
Some of "my projects" can be/could be/are a real PIA.

YES, without the proper equipment and/or knowledge....things could have a way of becoming more expensive to fix/repair. So.....a Gunsmith is a great idea.

Then again, some are a simple job (Hint: Brownells).

Aloha, Mark

Tim Copeland got back to me in a timely manner, I dropped off two rifles today.
