EEB,

Ken Hurst knows Boone's gunsmithing academic credentials better than I do, and will likely chime him. Boone has had serious schooling. He's in his 20s and resides at:
313 S. Main St.
Robersonville, NC
tel: (910) 220-3332

Baron23 gives a nice testimonial above. I looked at a number of projects in his shop and noted the meticulous attention to detail. His prices are very fair and his integrity unquestioned.

Regards, Tim
