Need a "Smith"......

[DocIndy]

I need a gunsmith to change the bolt knob on my Howa 1500 .308. I want a tactical knob installed. I would prefer to use a smith that has done other work for INGO members and comes with a recomendation. Let me know who I need to go see.

Thanks.

Just one of many. Google is handy.

You shouldn't need a Smith to change the bolt knob. Didn't need one to change the knob on my 10FP 223, .

I did change my Savage knob myself. The Howa is a different animal. I don't have time working 60-80 hrs a week to do it. I'd rather have it done.... locally. If I have to send it out so be it, but I'd rather keep it local.

im not sure if mark does that kind of work (threading) if he does contact him. if not aj brown is more than competent and does great work

I don't think that there is anything that Highsmith gun's won't take in. I know they have a fella they use for threads, and an employee there that is learning lathe work as we speak.

You might try VanFossans Custom Gunsmithing,if you don't mind sending out of state, a friend of mine turned me onto Bill use to be the Service Tech at Para in Seiverville TN untill they closed it last year. He does all kinds of custom work and very reasonable.
