Try Matt Begley, Black Diamond Gun Works in Tipp City, Ohio.
The Stock Doctor, Dennis Smith, is in Oregon, as is another excellent stock guy, Mark Larson.
Give Matt a call, or go see him if you are out in that area. Hope he can help you out.

Thanks very much. The thread was about someone who took a Fox over to Gun Doctor guy in Western Ohio and had ejector fixed while he waited. But now I can't find that posting.

I think you are referring to this post and it was indeed Matthew that did the work: http://forum.foxcollectors.com/viewtopi ... tor#p71723

PS. FWIW, He is really backed up in work now and they just had a baby.

What kind of problem/issue do you have that needs fixed? Perhaps there are other options out there.
I sent a Ugartechea 20 to a 'smith in Indiana with good results.

This is actually for a skeet buddy who has two pre war Webley and Scots BLEs that are doubling and he needs sears made, not a terribly difficult job but the person would have to be pretty good to do it. Many thanks for your suggestions.

Has Matt Bagley set up a gunsmith shop since leaving Tipp City?
He did excellent work for me replacing a broken Fox ejector rod back in May.
Thanks!
