Jackson area gunsmith needed

Postby Bercy » Tue Jul 26, 2005 2:26 pm

My o/u’s firing pins are not working. I've searched old posts and the only Jackson gunsmith I found was Swann's Gun Repair. Does anyone know if Swann's is good or if any other gunsmith is good/better in the Jackson area? Thanks.

I have the same problem with mine. They fire but not allways hard enough. Been tempted to break it down myself but haven't done it yet.
Let us know what they find. Probably won't be the same problem but still would like to know what they say.

O/U - same problem with here with my Citori - firing sometimes and not others. It looks like they are loose - they are sunken back toward the stock more than they should be.

take your gun down to the outfitter and they have a gunsmith that will pick up the guns there. His name is Billy Tierce... He used to the gunsmith at mississippi shooters supply. He is one of the best in the business..... Or you can you Thomas Bullock at Surplus City at the gun range. He is a very good gunsmith as well.
