[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 179712, member: 5"] My smith is absolutely a first class machinist, does limited engraving, typically uses custom aftermarket stocks because they the best for the type of work he does, uses first class barrels from the best manufactureres out there. I don't really care what he charges by the hour. Usually it's an amount quoted to do a certain job or part of a job. When I say I don't care what he charges, that is because I'm looking for quality and the best work I can have done. You pay for that pure and simple. If you take the cheapest bid you will usually end up with the lowest grade work. That's up to him and whaterver the market will handle. If I don't like his price on an item I have the option of buying it somewhere else. He does everything from cleaning a gun to full blown, best in the world, customs. [/QUOTE]
