[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2706774, member: 113268"] I guess I am confused why he would even bother offering the service. Are there really wealthy people out there who would spend that kind of money on a restoration for a firearm that will be worth literally only a fraction of the cost of restoration once it s done? Its not a matter of expectations of being enough profit but rather expectations of being too much loss. I understand workloads. Any really good gunsmith has work scheduled out for the next 2 years. I am not going to spend $7200 to restore these 2 shotguns so I will either find someone else or not do it at all. [/QUOTE]
