Post by: gasman on September 22, 2013, 10:30:26 AM: there is a guy in So Tacoma, cant remember his name. its been a few years since I talked with him.

he owns a shop on Tyler St, in the same building as Mary's Pistols.

I will be going there Tue and will get his card and contact info, I lost it :bash:`

My son wants some work done with his stock and I need to get my lower i ordered from Mary's.

Like I said, its been a few years but when I was doing some research for the Tacoma area, his name kept comming up and heard nothing but good things about his work.
