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.

Hello,
I might be able to help you out depending on how many you need. I could probably spare 50-75 .285g A-Frames. They are factory pulls that look like new. Let me know if you are still looking,
Thanks,
Gary

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.
