Need a quality gunsmith,,,

Post by John Pfaff on Sat Jul 16, 2011 12:35 pm

I have carried a stainless steel Bill Wilson Sentinel .45 officers frame for several years and need a low profile ambi safety. Who (hopefully in the Vicksburg area) will do the work and not mark my handgun? Most gunsmiths are capable, but not all are careful.
Later.

+10 on Billy, he's built so many customs for me and other members
of my family I can't count them all. He should be listed in the Jackson
metro phone book under "Bill's Gun Shop"

How about about Mr. Jimmy at Hadads? It's nice and close. Is he careful? Will he scratch the finish upon reassembly?

Bill in Utica repaired the old Colt .38 Trooper my Dad left to me and did a nice job.
