Default New address

First let me apolgize for the interuptions for the in phone-e-mail service. Our production schedule has been set back by about three weeks. We have moved into a new facility. I had no idea how confusing it would be to deal with multiple contractors. I had to oversee all of the upgrades and we are very close to completion. Our open for business date is June 18 th. Tuesday.
I will do my best to return phone calls and e-mails as soon as possible. Please be patient.
Our Phone # is 616-459-3636 The same as it has been. Our new address is 700 Plymouth N.E. Grand Rapids Michigan 49505. We are 1 mile from our old location. I have undertaken many Vast improvements In all of our processes and now have the room to do them at a level never before possible. Our Lead times should be reduced greatly.
Again,thank you for your patience

Thanks Brad

Brad a gunsmith should never say "that"

Well, My wife and I finally got to Michigan, We are in South Haven, you know I just had to stay in a place with the word South in it! Got to get used to the kind of food they eat here Smelt? I thought that's what you do with iron ore, guess I was wrong, Had to turn down my radio they said it was too loud, and I had to play something other than "Take Me Back to Old Virginia" Seriously I am looking forward to our trip to Bachelders this afternoon, he is about 50 miles away as the crow flies. And will be meeting some friends here also. Gary
