Title: Shotgun work
Post by: coyote_out on January 26, 2015, 09:08:41 PM: I have a ruger red label that I am thinking that I want to port and have the stock customed, for sporting purposes.
Anyone have any recommendations for shops? I am having a hard time finding anything. Thanks.

Ya I already have the Red Label, so I wanted to try and keep cost down by using that gun. We'll see I suppose.
