I'm not sure what type of smithing you're wanting, but there is a very good smith in Nashville if you're interested.

Give Jered Joplin a call at Patriot Arms in GA. He is an excellent gunsmith and hell of a guy. Should be about 165 miles from you. Here's a link to his site:

Fulldraw,
Who do you recommend in the Nashville area?

Fulldraw,

Anyone in Nashville would be great. I'm really looking for a variety of services like install a brake, maybe a rebarrel job, or even a complete custom.

Thanks

There's a smith that works at Specialty Arms II in LaVergne, TN, his name is Jeff Walle.

Jeff does great work! I've had him install brakes, recoil pads, action jobs, trigger jobs and a whole lot of other goodies. He's very good to work with. He is also a championship pistol shooter.

Customers ship guns to him for various jobs from a lot of places. Give him a call at 615-793-9696 between 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Let me know if I can be of further help! Tell him Jerry Shehane told you to call!
