Moving to Winston Salem NC need recommendations for a smith
#394759 - 04/12/25 01:01 AM

We'll be moving from Alaska to the Winston-Salem NC area at the end of April. I'll need to find a good local smith that can work on old firearms and that is reliable. Any recommendations will be helpful. Thanks.

Mike,

Welcome to the South. One thing to note is there are not many wild moose in Winston Salem or actually in the South.

On the subject of competent gunsmith, Chris would be better in responding. I use Bill Schwarz in Ellijay, GA but that is a long drive (4.5 hrs) and perhaps better mailing the rifle to him.

If you are settled by late April, Rick Weber is hosting a sporting, rook & double rifle match at Oakridge, TN on April 24/25th. It is a great set of matches with very interesting rifles. I can send you information if you are interested.

We don't leave Alaska until the 26th of April.

Mike,

Sorry that you will miss the match as I would like to meet you in person, and I think you would enjoy the other shooters.

Best success with your move.

Thanks RB. I'd still like the info. If it's on next year I would like to go.

Mike,
Contact Rick Weber at ricksweber@gmail.com and ask to be put on his mailing list for his Sporting, Rook and Double Rifle Matches. Tom Rowe has helped Rick with these matches.

Let me start with a disclaimer. I have not used this man's services, nor have I met him. I am going by reputation only, which is good.

He is less than 2 hours north of W-S. (And I'm just another hour or so up the road.)

P.S. Please give feedback if you do contact this Gent.
