Gunsmith!

Post by 1SG Mosteller »

I found a great gunsmith in Orange, Va. He fixed 2 of my Foxes, put the ivory beads back on my Sterlingworth and installed a pad on my CE, he did a fantastic job and was very reasonable on his prices!

Can you provide a name (PM would be fine). I live a couple of hours from Orange and always have a few odds and ends I need done.

Thanks for the kind words .

Ned does very good work . As he has on all my stuff .

We have a young fellow named Zack who finished up at a gunsmith school in Pittsburgh about a year ago and he seems to be coming along rather well .

Oh incidently I opened a box today with a Philly Fox B grade 2 barrel set that looks very decent . If I'm not mistaken you might know something about this :wink:

Are the beavertail forends factory ?
