Any good gunsmith recommendations?
« on: October 22, 2012, 08:26:22 PM »
Just wondering if anyone knows a good reliable gunsmith in the South King/Pierce county area? I have a Belgium Browning BAR 7mm and it just started to not eject the spent shells. I have a special permit elk hunt coming up in early November and would hope to have it back if possible for that. I realize that may be tough to do but I would like to hear of anyone has anyone they would highly recommend. Thanks in advance for your info.......Les

Bret IS the man!! Got the 7mm to him yesterday and just got a call and it is fixed. I really appreciate his efforts as he knew I was on a time line for my special hunt. Broken extractor and I luckily had one from years back when I had a problem with my other Browning. Got lucky in that regard but now I have my own gun for my special elk permit. Just looking at his shop and the guns he was building when I dropped mine off was pretty impressive. I definitely know He would be the guy if I did want something custom done and I will be happy to take my Browning back to him for that yearly breakdown cleaning from now on.............................Les
