Bob MehaffeyFt Worth Area Gunsmith?
Can anyone recommend a 'smith in the FTW area? I have a good one in Hurst but he's really slow and I have projects pending. Thanks.

<Lightnin>Go to
www.benchrest.com and ask if anybody has heard of Speedy Gonzalez. He's one of the best in benchrest circles. Bring money.

<Lightnin>Come to think of it you might try Shilen also. They have made a decent piece or two over the years.
