Gunsmiths?

[hunter480]

Anyone know of any qualified gunsmiths on the West side of Indy?

I have a Sig P232 that needs a little help, and don`t want to have to drive to Gander Mountain.

I'd call Cory and see if he can help you. He works some part-time on the west side.

IF you purchased it at Gander, and also included was their protection plan, then take advantage of the "freeness" of their warranty services!

Without the warranty, though, Gander might be a bit high. I know that Lee down at the Greenwood store charges about $60 an hour for general gunsmithing work.

I have heard good things about a guy in Tipton. My dad and his buddy went there to drop off his S&W for some custom sight work and they had nothing but good things to say about his what they saw of his work and his place. His prices aren't bad either. He is going to weld up some holes with stainless rod on the slide the previous owned hadput there to mount (badly I might add) a Millet front sight, then mill a dovetail for a proper front sight installation for $60. Not bad if you ask me. His buddy is going to get a custom made (made in house) muzzle break for a pencil barrel hunting rifle and have it threaded and mounted for $200. Again, not a bad price IMO.

I can't for the life of me remember his name though. My dad has his card and I will post the info when I get it.

Is it Ray Saltzman? (not sure I spelled it correctly). I've heard great things about his work.

Lee isn't at the Greenwood Gander anymore. He was the one that hooked me up with installing my Glock sights last year, but he got a divorce and moved to Florida (my wife cut his family's hair). So now I go to Mr. Nash.

Whats wrong with the Sig, P232's are fairly simple blowback design and it is pretty easy to diagnose its common problems.

Are the gunsmiths at Gander any good? I don't know what I would ever need one for. Just curious.

Slide won`t rack on the pistol, unles the hammer is cocked. I`ve tried with a magazine in the thing, without a magazine, but it will only rack if the hammer is cocked. It should, (and used to), rack regardless of whether the hammer was cocked or not.
