A good friend has a Winchester Model 21 that is slightly off face and would like to have it repaired. Does anyone know a Smith that is really good with 21's? I'm not interested in sending it to Galazan. Thanks in advance for your help. Gerry Addison esetter5@me.com

Usually replacing or build up the locking bolt puts a 21 right. Every once in a while I have had to build up the hook. A new bolt from Galazan properly fit and you will likely be good to go.

I'd be careful who I sent it to....
I've heard hOrror stories of model 21's being send back several times before the gunsmurfer finally got it right.

Philip did one for me and the fit is great and his price was rational ( not cheap) 210-313-5988. The best action/metal man I have used in 50 years of trying. bill

You aren't one-tenth the man that jOe is.  Have you and j0e been having a good time at the Cloud 9 Bar and Grill? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWzTU7VAPLYHow is the weather in Pulaski Billie? I was bummed Dave locked the last thread where you were ranting, as usual. I especially enjoyed the part about unions. Too funny. There may have been a joke in there somewhere, but it was clearly way over your head. Then again there is a good chance you have no sense of humor. Take care Bill. I have been enjoying our exchanges, especially since you have come out of the closet. Steve

Since you're advertising for free on here'a... Is this an in house repair or one of you're farmed out repairs ? And lastly... Just how much is this going to cost and what is the exact timeline on doing the work ? Psssss....If you want to take the fifth we will all understand.

I am not accepting new clients currently FrAnk, especially azzholes like you. I can hardly keep up with all the work Keith has been sending my way.
How was the cloud 9?
