I’m sorry to say that due to personal circumstances I’m going to have to close the gunsmith shop. My apologies to everyone.

Yes, with the right mounts, you can mount a red dot on old Benjamin air rifles.
The mounts will not be a mirror fit and caution is required. Too much torque on the scope mount will crush the thin tube.

I used a small slice of inter tube to shim it.

I still have someone on Texas Gun Trader trying to use my business name to scam people. I don’t have an employee named Justin Yates, in fact, I am a one man shop I don’t have any employees. My FFL does not identify my business as a “dealer.”
I have asked Texas Gun Trader to ban him numerous times. Please report him if you see him selling anywhere. I did get him banned from Guns America.

I often get too excited with a new project and forget to take a before picture. Here is an after photo. The customer had a childhood mentor that was an amazing role model and could fix anything. This was most likely a project gun for him.
The customer found the barrel and receiver rusting in an old garbage can. It was covered in rust and it is probably the biggest restoration I have done. See the comments for a detailed description of the work I did on it.

Please check out the new ATF ruling on pistols with stabilizing braces and scopes. This is the power point presentation that ATF sent out.

https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/docs/undefined/finalrule2021r-08f508pdf/download

Please don’t think my compliance equals agreement with the rules. I operate a legal business and will continue to do so.
So please keep us all compliant and don’t bring one to me to repair if it has a stabilizing brace or a scope that cannot be used with long eye relief (in other words you can’t have a scope that has to be 2 or 3 inches from your eye to use.
I can still work on the pistol without anything attached.

Referral required.
I have a gunsmithing degree but the only reason I run this part time gunsmith business is to provide a needed service to my community.
It’s an expensive business and I make very little. Working with old guns is very time consuming and not profitable at all. But I love to restore those old guns and bring them back to their former glory, or at least get them working order so they can be enjoyed.
But….
Dealing with snowflakes in the public sector has left me wanting to close my doors.

So for the time being I will remove some of the website and business links from the internet. I will keep this page open.
For the most part, I will only take jobs from existing customers and people that they refer.
If you are an existing customer, please refer people with good moral character. If you wouldn’t do business with them….then don’t refer them to me.

I am going to focus on restoring older guns and stock repair. I will still do repairs but on a much smaller scale. Repairing antique guns requires a lot of time, patience, and sometimes, very expensive equipment. I have to be selective on which jobs I take in.
To my existing customers thank you for all of your support and understanding

Here is a simple stock repair without refinishing anything. It required 5 pins. It is a lot cheaper than a new stock for this customer. I guarantee all stock repair for the lifetime of the firearm.
