They did some barrel work for me and I was very pleased.

I own a B-25 which they did barrel work and one of my shooting partners currently has his Perazzi MX-8 there for barrel tuning. I'm please with my gun's results and haven't heard of any complaints with there barrel tuning.

My SC 3 Perazzi bbls were tuned by him. Not commissioned by me, but by the original owner, who is a good friend and mentor in box bird competition.
My friend has had a lot of work done by him over the years.

I have a early Ithaca NID 20ga. in his shop right now having the bottom rib re-layed. He has a pretty busy shop so a bit of a wait is expected. The NID has been there two months now. His reputation is producing excellent work.
