Just completed fitting in a new set of barrels. A challenging job but we love a challenge.

Well its been a long time since working on these. Come along to The Game Fair and find me at the gunmakers court stand and watch and meet the craftsmen who build best guns.

I was sent some trigger guards to have extended tang laser welded on. All done in house. Always happy to help.

I was sent this to see if we could save this sidelever. I chamfered around break and filled in with the laser welder. Sometimes you just have to give it a try.

A quick turn around job for a trade customer. The bite on the barrel was to steep and the gun was opening when firing. We added some material for the gunsmith to adjust accordingly.

Trade customer sent in a trigger group for adjustments. To much play in the trigger till it engaged with the sear. See the fix in the comments.

Repair time. A lock safety sear needed some added material so it could sit the right places. All sorted.
