I agree completely with Ky Jon's post. I have operated a small business for many years, not a gun shop, but still one that deals with the public. When the economy goes south, sorta' like what is going on now with the housing market and the wider impact it is or will have on the general economy, it gets tough at times. His reputation is tarnished forever, but I also hope he gets it together again and can perhaps find a good source of employment to put his skills back to work. If he is working for someone else that is responsible for the "public" end of the business, I would send him work. A good doublegun smith is not easy to find, and Andy is a good mechanic.
