Gunsmith referral needed
 

Can anyone recommend an excellent gunsmith in the Greater Los Angeles area. Task is to mount a scope and bipod on a sniper rifle and do an accuracy/reliability job on it. I am trying to avoid having to ship the stuff to TN or NC and back. PHX area also would be OK. Thanks!

RL - I wouldn't recommend using the word "sniper" to describe any firearm located within the bounds of "The People's Democratic Socialist Free-Green-State Left-Coast Republic of Kalifornia. :munchin I'm not even sure I would mention "accuracy enhanced". Either one conveys sentiments/capabilities guaranteed to cause the arbiters of your rights to break out in a cold sweat/hot rage. (IIRC, neither firearms law, nor criminal law are among your specialties! :p)

Good luck in any event. If you were in NC we'd know exactly who to send you to.

RL - I would give the folks at Nemesis Arms a call. I meet them at SHOT and they make an amazing weapon. They are in the LA area - at least for now. PM me if you need their POC.

If you can get it to the Idaho panhandle Shawn Carlock is an excellent gunsmith.

He has won several tactical rifle championships and shoots some pistol comp. Watch some of his videos on his web site on killing animals at extreme ranges.


Here is a little funny video of shooting comp pistol.

You can tell him I sent you and he will charge you extra. :D

Very nice guy and very honest.

If you need lessons in "hunting beyond 1K" he has classes about two or three times a year.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing.... RL, why do't you refer to the rifle as "Dragon Slayer"...

And while we're thinking along those lines, are all the rifles I own "sniper" rifles?:munchin

I think you are the second one to tell him that.:D

There's a high end company called Tac-Ops, they appear to have some serious attention to detail and offer a 1/4moa guarentee, they're out of Bev Hills.

Randy does some incredible work.

Different gun with a different issue!

Yeah, the first one rusted away. :p
