[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 675061, member: 2736"] I allways recomend finding a local smith if there is one and spend some time with him and ask to see some of his work. Be sure you have a plain and know exactly what you want and expect from him. If he want's all the money up front "RUN". a reputable smith will normally ask for half to start and the rest when complete. If you give him all the money he has no incentive to finish on schedule and may not honor his accuracy guarantee when you do get it. If you furnish everything correctly, he should be able to finish your project in 3 weeks + depending on his back log. If he buys some of the componants it could be 3 to 4 months before he gets long delivery items (Barrels, stocks and special reamers normally take the most time) And this would be added to the 3 weeks labor and work load.
