I'd hit up GFT first.

Another option is Honey Badger Firearms on Ruffner St. Link - https://honeybadgerfirearms.com/gunsmithing/

Wow…they were my go to gun shop, I haven’t needed their services now that they’re only gunsmithing but I’ll think twice if I need work done. Well, like one redditer said, at least it’s visually obvious that it’s pinned and welded…

Wow, that is ugly.

I did about five p\w jobs there in the last couple years and they were all flawless. I wonder if they lost their guy?

The guy that did all the great work was the kinda heavy set guy. He was really good.

Yikes. That's unlike GFT. Looks like GFT is a no-go for barrel services.

I'm not sure, I've only done transfer with them in the past, but when I was there for the p&w, they were nice, and it was a very short wait, so at least i got that ...

GFT does somewhat decent work on VERY basic jobs. I'm talking like installing sights on a Glock... Outside of that go elsewhere. See if Gussler can pin and weld.

Yeah I've also had 2 P&W jobs at GFT. They used to be my goto gunshop too with impeccable service, and I know they're a manufacturer so I just assumed their work would be respectable but I was wrong.

Both P&Ws look like that. They also have nasty habits of stripping screws on my rail, and marring my uppers in ways that make no sense.

Gussler does top shelf work, but he's been really busy lately.
