I've had Mike do about 25 jobs for me, all quick turnaround and excellent workmanship. A couple of times I've asked him to do other work for me and he has said that he only does choke and barrel work and stock bending. When a smith takes too long on my work, I have it returned and I send it elsewhere. You can't beat Danner gunsmithing in Fayetteville, TN for rust bluing. He has done about five jobs for me. They all seem to cost about $300.
