I am in the process of finding a smith local preferably to the pacific northwest. I am looking to have a late 60s Browning Broadway Trap shotgun of mine reblued. It is my understanding that this must be done in such a fashion that it does not effect the ribs solder. Any suggestions for a smith?

Thanks
James
 
talk to midwest gun works. They did a Browning A5 for me and no complaints. If not them, talk to Gordy and Sons in Houston. I dont think they will do it themselves but they can get it done for you. I have also used them to reblue, really a total restoration, of two guns and they deliver the goods. Good luck and let us know what you do. Cheers
 
Arts Gun Shop is the only shop I send Brownings to. They have numerous videos on YouTube showing their craft. Art used to work for Browning as a smith back jn the day.

 
IronHorse GunWorks in TN does great work on rebluing. Check out their Facebook page! They restored a browning shotgun that was in a house fire and made it look like new again. It was pretty impressive to say the least

The gunmaker who I trusted passed away several years ago, but the problem isn't unique to Browning Superposed. A lot of double rifles are soldered and a hot blue will melt the solder causing regulation problems.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.
