Livefast123 Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 I've decided to get a gunsmith to look over my hammer gun barrels to check their condition properly and see if they are still in proof. I'm a bit stumped as although there are plenty of gunshops, there do not seem to be many gunsmiths. Can anybody recommend somebody that will do good work for a decent price?

EMcC Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 You could also try Nigel Teague, he would be a lot closer to Bristol for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 This is daft. Dennis and the guys do my work as necessary but Owen just wants his barrels checked. Why drive from the Bristol area to the other Side of Taunton just to have some measurements taken when there's a perfectly competent 'smith 5 minutes away?

welshwarrior Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 If Nigel Teague is closer go there he's one of the best barrel men in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why drive from the Bristol area to the other Side of Taunton just to have some measurements taken when there's a perfectly competent 'smith 5 minutes away? Makes perfect sense and I suspect that is exactly what Owen will do. I know I would in his situation. Nowt so queer as folk !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livefast123 Posted August 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Going to get it sorted next week when i'm on annual leave, it's got to be the closest with the price of petrol these days just for a check. Thanks for all the suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
