I've got a Marlin 30-30 that won't cycle and an old 32. revolver that is difficult to close. Looking for someone knowledgeable in working on guns, more specifically these guns. If you have the skillset and are located close to Plano Texas let me know. Thanks in advance.

BTW - I posted this as I'd like to give my business to a forum member before I have to go to a randomly selected gunsmith.

I'll second the looking for info. I have a shotgun that was my fathers. It needs a killer cleaning & maybe a small repair.

I'd be happy to look at your Marlin for you, just a amateur myself, but have quite a number of Marlins in differnt calibers and have worked on all of them

It is most likely something simple, just send me a PM.

You can also go Marlinowners.com and get some answers, if you feel like tinkering with it yourself.

Thanks for the heads up Andrew, but I need something a little closer to home.
