Is there a gunsmith in the DFW area anyone can "highly" recommend to do a complete tear down, inspection/repair of a Winchester Model 100?

I was going to send the rifle to Nu-Line Guns in Missouri, who apparently bought all of the existing parts from Winchester for this model, and who claim to have repaired 1000's of these.

Before I dealt with the hassle of packing and shipping it, I thought I'd ask if there was anyone local that would do a good job with it. Thanks

Bob at RP Firearms in Lavon Tx did a great job on my Model 12. He made repairs without sending it out and did so very quickly!
