Im advising you to NOT go here. Ive tried to give this guy money 4 times, every time this guy acts like he is too busy to care less. Just Tuesday 3.31.15 I tried to have a very simple barrel nut removal done (my new place didn't have a vice, but I got one after this). The upper was already removed and stripped down with even the slip ring loose. All homeboy had to do was put it in the vice and twist off the nut with a wrench I even brought in. He claimed he was too busy to take literally 2 minutes to bust this out for me. I offered him $20 cash to bust it out, still NADA. He went on to say its not a 2 minute job, while we bickered back and forth for 5. He said it would take 5-7 days to get to it. He is a one man band shop that is a snap shot from the 40's. Go somewhere else. Dont just take my word for it...here is a link to a popular forum busting his chops, all, day, long.

Pete has serviced/restored a few of my pieces, including a few collectibles,and one that took some parts researching. Absolutely excellent work, very reasonable cost. I found him originally after asking a few serious collectors, including a manager of of the major stores in the area. He's not your glib pitch and talk-your-ears-off guy: part of his focused technical guy persona. Serious guy for serious work. But he is definitely an interesting person to talk to, if it's worth talking about. ; )

He is old school like his dad, dealing with gun owners is hard. Believe me I know . Good guy and does good work.
