    shotgun fitting in bay area?

    Hello,


    Does anyone know where I can get a shotgun fitted around the east bay area? I purchased a Blaser F3 Super Trap, and would like to get it fitted before my first outing. I had guns previously fitted by Bill Martin, but can't seem to get ahold of him now. Any recommendations?

    Call Coyote Valley Sporting Clays (Morgan Hill), they have regulars there who do stock fitting. When I was shopping for one for my wife, they recommended one, I can't find his card but they should be able to tell you his cell phone number.

    Enjoy the natural beauty of our location in the hills of Santa Clara Valley and experience the friendliness of our knowledgeable staff. Please note that if you are not knowledgeable and experienced with shotgun handling and safety, you must be accompanied by someone who is in order to shoot here.

      Dale Tate is supposed to be very good. Impressive resume.


      I plan on getting my o/u fitted by him later this year.

        Second recommendation for Dale Tate. Had two shotguns fitted with him.

          I had my gun fitted by Dale Tate. He is not in the Bay Area, but well worth the drive and expense. He keeps your fitting on record so you can go to him with any gun and get it to fit you exactly. Comes with a fun little lesson to boot. You will find his shop in Camache Hills hunting club near Ione, CA. He is a gun maker that studied under Purdey.




          I don't expect everything handed to me. Just set it down anywhere. Unknown

            Lance Keller is fantastic! He fit my Browning A5 in about 45 minutes. My accuracy improved immediately saved me from buying a new shotgun which I was considering.

            He typically fits your gun while you wait. He was set up at Hastings Island Pheasant club yesterday.

            here is contact info. I am a customer not affiliated.

            Lance travels up and down the West Coast. Get five or more shooters or guns together and he will come to your house to fit your gun stocks while you watch the game.

              What is the typical cost of fitting?

                called and spoke with both Lance and Dale, they are pretty far away from me and out past the 26th of this month. Any other recommendations closer to the immediate bay area?
