I am always hesitant about sending one of my beloved vintage guns out for attention. I sent a Parker to Brad for evaluation and repair of a light front trigger pull. Fortunately all the gun needed was a good cleaning and lubrication. I was very happy with the courtesy and professionalism of Brad's son Parker and the attention to detail with respect to my desires concerning the repair and shipment of one of my prized guns. I would recommend their services based upon my recent experiences. Craig Larter

All of Brad's work on my Parkers has been timely and exceptional. The Bachelder family is a pleasure to do business with and God willing and the hour glass doesn't catch up to me anytime soon, I would love to meet them some day.

Brad is a pleasure to talk to and very accommodating. Their love for guns and their work is readily apparent.

I have more gunsmith horror stories than anybody I know.

I wish somebody would have warned me off these guys beforehand.

My go to guy these days is Brian Dudley, he's never failed me.
