Ohio S&W revolver gunsmith
« on: January 21, 2011, 11:03:01 AM »
Nothing super fancy, but want a little work done to some S&W wheelguns.  Action tune-up (not for PPC competition) but for smoothness, crane ball locks, and that's about it.  Maybe an oversized cylinder latch, recut the forcing cone and true up the chamber throats if needed.  These are N-frame, SS guns so refinishing is not really a concern.  I'm trying to locate a trusted smith so that I can deliver & pickup without paying the regulated shipping fees as this amount of work is not really worth the shipping. 

SDM Fabricating, Medina, Ohio (Scott M.) is not taking any new work for an undetermined amount of time due to a high demand for SDM produced parts -

I'm in central Ohio so about anywhere in Ohio is OK.

Thanks - redleg

I haven't used him personally, but for pistol work in the Canton / Massillon Ohio area I've heard that Gary Ortiz is the guy to go to.  330-833-1159

Hope that helps.
