Gunsmith for Browning A-Bolt

[flat8]

Does anyone know a gunsmith who will work on a Browning A-Bolt? I have a white gold medallion in 7mm mag and I'm looking to refinish the stock, remove the BOSS, and shorten the barrel from 26 to 24 inches. OR I may just sell it. My understanding is that Brownings are notoriously difficult to work on . . .

Check out arts gun shop. If you look on there web sights you can see there prices. They do a lot of browning restorations. Best of luck

Have you any experience with the ABolt mountain titanium? There is a sleeve in the receiver that seems to pose a problem for some when removing a barrel. Are you familiar with this particular issue? I’ve read significant damage can occur if not heated properly before attempting to remove a barrel on that particular model. I’ve also read that some gunsmiths don’t find it to be a problem. I asked one gunsmith if he would do a truing job on it and he said no. Also, when I asked Browning they said don’t remove the barrel. What is your opinion ?
