    Need a good S&W smith

    Have an old 29 Smith I must have put 20K+ thru it. Its pretty loose and needs some TLC. The hole in the frame where the cylinder locks is a bit out of round and I am sure it needs more.

    Anyone know of a good "smith" that does this type of work?

    Thanks

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    I do all my own work so this is just word of mouth from others. Bobby Tyler has a very very good reputation.
