Good Gunsmith in Western Washington
« on: November 18, 2010, 03:31:19 PM »
I need to get my browning Citori sized down for me, and would like to take it to a good gunsmith.  I would be grateful for any recommendations of gunsmiths you guys have used, and been happy with.
Thanks,
Dave

There's an outfit up in Seattle on Lake City Way, can't remember their name, but they do a great job with shotguns.  I had them chop off 2 inches of barrel and install a new choke system on my 870.  Just found their name, Stan Baker Sports, http://www.stanbakersports.com  1-206-522-4575

I just heard this weekend that Stan Baker's is closed, but I have not personally confirmed it.

A ball park location would be helpful... You closer to Portland or Bellingham? Northbend of Sequim?
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I am in Kenmore, just north of Seattle. Stan Bakers is closed due to tax issues, and to be honest, they were rude every single time I went in there.

Glad to hear Stan Baker’s is closed.  That place is a total train wreck.  Stay far away from them if they are still open.

I think the BEST for shotguns is actually shooters emporium in Portland they do all the Kesselring high end work and they are who I use for my shotguns.

My buddies Benelli semi auto is in need of work also; it jambed 3 times yesterday. First time out this season. He is near Snoqualmie. So if anyone has someone closer to Seattle that would be a great help to dfarley33 & us.
Thanks in advance.  :hunt2:

I have had several SBE's, they need to be cleaned and oiled often.  Don't use heavy oil either.  The best light oil I could find was Hoppe's in the black plastic bottle.
