Need smith in Southern WIsconsin or Northern ILL.

[PB234]

My smith has retired and need someone excellent to do minor work. Am scared of finding a new smith to do easy work on a good rifle as so many tend to damage things. This is really easy work. Just want a good set of hands doing it as replacement parts will be hard to get. For a competent guy this is child's play and easy money.

ANy suggestions will be most welcome.

Many so-called 'smiths today are just parts changers so I understand your concerns. PM coming.

Parts changers is better than some of he work I see.

Thank you for the PM.

If you where close to northeast Iowa I would have you go to the one I have .He dose more then parts change.He did built me a rifle and also fix up my civil war gun that had parts missing. Had someone told me you can not shoot it and he check it and now it is complete and I can shot it with out a worry. What I mean complete is beside that the gun itself had missing that he found the replacement parts , but also for the baronet and the sling I got for it, that I found myself.
