Arts or Midwest Gun Works. I have used both in the past on lower grade Browning Belgium superposes. At this moment I have a very high grade superposed that need some light restoration work. Who do you think might be best. Also, I wish to get it back before I pass away.

Maybe Bob Cash can chime in

Art has forgotten more about Brownings and their proper original finishes than most other gun repair guys will ever know. Describe "light restoration work" if you don't mind, John.

Here is my experience with MGW. I took a tumble and damaged the stock of my Citori Upland. Classic toe crack/chip and a tiny crack behind the tang. Everything else was fine.

I shipped it to MGW asking them to repair the damage and refinish the stock and forend per Browning specifications (the stock had lots of scratches anyway).

The good:

Great communication and turnaround time (8 weeks).

No surprise or hidden fees.

They literally made the damage disappear, and the refinish brought out more of the grain.

The bad:

The fitting of the buttplate could be better in my opinion. It almost looks like they refinished the stock and then installed the buttplate. I was hoping it would have been blended better. In fairness, it looks like a Browning factory fitted buttplate.

In all, I wouldn't hesitate to use them again on any other Citori.

Just my experience for what it's worth.
