Newbe

Post by Irishtexan »

Another newbe to the forum, but not to leverguns, need your help with finding a good lever gunsmith, all i have found so far is someone who thinks if he installs a scope he is a gunsmith, would like someone within 100 miles of DFW area if at all possible, all of the ones i knew have gone to the happy hunting ground, thanks, Irish.

Steve is in Burnet? Somehow I had missed this. My great-great grandfather, Champion Travis Traylor, owned a business in Burnet in its very earliest days when it was still named Hamilton. He was murdered on a business trip to San Saba in August of 1856, leaving his wife Elizabeth pregnant with my great granddad. The family lore is that it was the local Masonic lodge that came to her rescue until she could find her footing. GGF, named for his father, was born on Christmas Eve of that year.
Sorry for the diversion, boys. Sometimes it seems like I can't swing a dead cat in the Lone Star State without hitting some "fambly histry."
Irish Texan, welcome to this wonderful camp. I'm sure you'll be able to get your levergun running right real soon. 8)

Welcome to the fire. You didn't say what kind of levergun you have. If it's a '92 Steve sells a DVD on how to slick up the '92 on your own. Sorry to hear he's not doing well.
