ry_star Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hi I need to fix a firing pin in one of my shot guns. Any suggestions of local gunsmiths in the Chippenham (Wiltshire Area)? Thanks Ry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltsmark Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hi R.W.S, Devizes Gunsmith is not to far from you, wouldnt think any of them are "cheap" but that job shouldn't cost to much anyway. Google him, he has a website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cumbrian Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Greenfields in Salisbury are good. Doubtless not cheap - but do you really want a cheap job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickthemiller Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 If Taunton is not to far away Dennis at UK Gunrepairs.co.uk do an excellent job. Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) http://www.dauntseyguns.co.uk/ I would have recommended these guys until recently (I still would if you want cheap ammo) but two separate recent experiences would leave me giving a wide berth except for straightforward retail purchases.

Thunderbird Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Why would that be? Enlighten us please I'll do my best. I'm not prepared to say too much as people must of course make up their own minds, however, suffice to say a bad, lazy, uncommunicative experience, and also a bad one which might be connected to ammunition which I cannot provide details of in writing. Also an epic fail on the attitude and strop girly handbag hissy-fit scale too. I was going to chuck a fair few quid their way too, sadly no more.
