Need a CT based gunsmith that knows how to Tig weld. South Eastern CT is preferred.

Do you know of Good Gunsmith in this area? I am not looking for a basement hobbyist.

(I've been to JoJo's twice and called once. No Thanks!)

Local or Adco. Those are my options.

If you know of a Good Gunsmith in this locale, Please send their contact info my way.

Thanks,

DaNewbie

Have heard gunsmithing limited in Southport CT is good. A board member works there and has shown some really incredible lever action work to come out of there.


They are in the same building that Ruger's HQ is in. Might want to give them a call. The number comes up in Google.


My own experience is limited to JoJo's, and I've been happy.

Call Ron's in East Lyme, they may have a clue. (860) 739-6805 ‎. The Outpost is near by also...

Ummm, Dan...Southport is SOUTHWEST Ct. GPS FTMFW. What was in that deer-hoof-borne cigar?

Everything in CT is close by


Ask Andropos. He supplied the cigars.

I used to live 2 doors down from him and still wouldn't go in there.

Right, I've read some reviews of the place from less than satisfied visitors.

I had a revolver sent out through Ron about 15 years ago... before I knew better.

Like it was stated above, steer clear.

There's ZIP in SE CT for gunsmiths. Trust me, I'd know if there were.
