Brixsmaid Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Seems to be a lack of Can anyone recommend from personal experience a gunsmith in Hampshire. Seems Phil Selwood has moved to darkest Devon. Chaplins Winchester seem a bit steep and fussy about what they work on! So open to suggestions.

Old farrier Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Hi have you tried Geof in ringwood Depends what you want done and the time scale Always found chaplins very good can't fault there work or service Though it may seem a tad expensive All the best Of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 If time not an object William Evans (Gordon) is good, Geoff at Ringwood has a good reputation never seen his work. Never dealt Chaplins. Sometimes regret leaving the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try Geoff and may see what Greenfields in Salisbury offer, its only a service and minor tidy up on an AYA No2 for the coming season (fore end rubbing very slightly when opening/closing the breech) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roundy Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Try Test Valley Sporting Guns in Oakley - the chap that runs it is a bit eccentric but rather old school and seems to know his onions. When I first got my SGC he helped me out and I bought a second Hand Parker Hale from him, I had more money to spend and he could of taken it but he found the right gun for me instead.
