rickster, 1st did you put nite sights on it?

if yes, probably need to be drifted to correct POA(point of AIM)


if no, OEM sights may have been banged, drift sights again to correct POA.


if you still have yer target, bring it with you to the DR.

remember the DR. is by appt. ONLY!


bottomline here...................if this is yer carry guns(you and eric) I WOULD NOT DORK WITH THEM AT ALL! ie. BET YER LIFE ON THEM! have the DR. wave his magic wand.



heres the drill w/the DR.. he is busy ALWAYS. all you have to do is explain what you want, he will tell you that either what you want is GREAT or it is STOO-PID.


he will tell you what to do how to do it and why to do it in spades.



he is a SHOOTIST! if yer having this much problems getting groups bring yer target to show the DR. and a BOX OF PREMIUM FEDERAL MATCH .45 and tell him you want it range tested.


i havent a clue what the hell it will cost. too many variables. bad day at mfg. plant, you guys playing gunsmith, ammo, tolerances, your shooting ability, wind, solar flares, sunspots, barrel hot etc.



believe it or not he will tell you if its a keeper or a lemon, and yes there are lemon guns where fixing is just stoopid to do due to expense.



butt at the end of yer spoon psychiatric consultation session, he will present you with a BILL PAYABLE RIGHT THEN AND THERE! cash works wonders, he takes credit cards also.


so splain yer ailments and ya get a bill. if ya notice the sign on the wall it states " if ya want a rush job bring a box of federal .308 MATCH BTHP ammo" and he will rush it thru.



the DR. has my 1894 marlin lever stainless .44 mag right now. he has done about (5) spoons of various flavors for me this year so far. next up is the marlin 1894 stainless .357, then the build(again with even more uber goodies) on the springfield mcmillian/arrington super duper match M1A. yes i grabbed every SADLAK part for this they offer. it is over the top insane. dont EVEN want to know how much into it i have, but lets just say its a HELL OF ALOT! it should be able to shoot dingleberries off a flys butt at 1000 yds! thats with a springfield illuminated 4.5 X 14 range finder reticle on it. yes its heavy, yes its spendy, yes its a GIANT PITA to carry around, but it is OVER THE TOP fun sitting in a blind, watching an open area(very prevalent in northern az-juniper islands) with a water hole at dawn or dusk and sniping the hell out of 4 legged furry creatures. we took this years back to winona,az. east of flagstaff and north about 4 miles to the praire dog farm. the day prior we went out and set lil cones out at 100-200-300yds out to 1200yds. came back following dawn with kids and proceeded to vaporize the praire dawg colony with it. great practice doing yer "comeups" and changing range up or down on yer target knobs. as day got sunny, heat came into play,wind drift corrections etc. great practice for long range ge-schutzen.



and trust me the praire dawgs DID NOT LIKE US ONE IOTA! the buzzards sure did and so did the coyotes(the trickster).



the DR. is IN tues-sat. thegunsmith.com
