I'd like to piggy back on this request.
I'm going to need the barrel swapped out on an old 3 screw Blackhawk.
I'm in Arlington.

I'd either drive down to Cresson and have Crimson Accuracy (Jonathan Stigall) or out to Breckenridge and have Jon Trammel do rifle work. I've used both.
Gunsmith is a pretty broad term and depending on what you want done would depend on the recommendation...for example, Crimson is a riflesmith and I think Trammel will do other stuff beside rifles.

Jon Trammel in Breckenridge. 254-559-3455 I have known him since 1980 and I don’t think you can find any better anywhere. Tell him Johnny Ward said call

I used to shoot those benchrest matches out there. Hell, until some of those guys turned to donkeys I was even a member at the Graham Range.

Judd you need to come back and shoot with them. They need the shooters. Mr. Wilson’s health prevents him from being there anymore and some people have dropped out. Then you can come see my Jaguar that belonged to Gov. Huckabee. Call Jon and talk to him about the shooting club

Fish bitching because we keep his thread at the top and gave him some solid leads I’m retired from the benchrest stuff.
