Often, some work (i.e., technical inspections, trigger and sight work, scope mounting, parts replacement) can be done while customer waits. By appointment only.

I DO NOT...

- Stock, sell or transfer modern firearms. The fully licensed local dealer I recommend is Skip Edgely (E-Mail me for his info).
- Discuss or recommend reloading for M1 Garands or M14 type rifles
- Work on M16/AR15 type rifles or handguns
- Offer firearms, ammo, or accessories for sale (for those needs, see my friends at Fulton Armory ), although I will sometimes accept such items in trade for work, especially antique or hunting guns.
- All major work, like rebarreling, glass bedding, stock work, require a substantial deposit. Since I am retired, I do not keep high dollar items in stock.
- Regarding tech inspections, I request custumers arrange their schedules to be present durring the inspection. Takes about fourty minutes.

I do not accept credit cards or checks.
