Thank You Jerry....I had no idea what repair would cost. I have a 3 day return on the gun. It is such a nice little 16 and I do not want to send her back! So I will keep her and get it put on face. Did you like the work you had done by G&H ? I may use them also? I would want a gun smith who knows English guns. SXS Ohio

Kenny,
It will depend on how much needs to be done. This is a good video on what it takes https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8EqfxRugPVw. Mr. Rowe died in 2015 and was having medical issues when this video was shot, but he explains it well. Ken |

Go to Youtube and search under Midway USA and english gun smith, if you have not yet seen it before. He did a whole series with this retired english gunsmith taking apart and repairing english guns. Warning, you will be mesmerized on how he deftly handles and repairs these guns. His intimate knowledge of english guns was incredible which is probably to be expected.
Well done Ken, you beat me to it and actually provided the link. |

I know the 'smith who does this work for G&H. He's excellent. But so is Kirk Merrington. Trained at Churchills and nonpareil for this work.

Ken,
A gunsmith with the handle SKB (Steve Bertrum) on the Double Gunshop site posted info and pictures of his high tech method for this procedure. Very impressive as I recall! Bob Jurewicz |
