[QUOTE="Rhett Crider, post: 2541155, member: 105034"] Nothing wrong there. Any business, extra mat,l-extra cost, extra labor-extra cost. As long as it's reasonable and no surprises. Most of us understand this, but then some don't. Perfect example here, Torque barrel on, index, remove, set up time and cut. I'm not a machinist, but I see an hour w/ no interruptions here. Tell me if I'm wrong but I can't be too far off. My smith has never charged me an upcharge for that but I always have receiver trued, lugs lapped, barrel channel opened most times, bedding, fluting, M/B threading, and trigger replaced or adjusted also. Also always give him a good deposit up front which he doesn't require from me. Built him a Christmas present a while back w/ an arm full of split mesquite. My gratitude for the exceptional work he's done for me. [/QUOTE]
