Chance Ramsay Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Got my 87' back on Friday night, shot 8 stages of black on Saturday. The only hiccup was the fellow holding the gun. It worked great. Thanks, Chance Ramsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepnmud#33546 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Sounds good. Hope to get my '87 back soon from Lassiter. Almost forgot what it looks like. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKFOOT SASS #11947 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Anybody got contact information or web site for Lassiter? How about posting it or send me a PM. Thanks, Blackfoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Foot Johnson Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I sent mine off to "another 'smith", and didn't get it back for eight months... it still didn't work right, so I sent it off to Lassiter and had it back in nine days working perfectly.

Arcadia Outlaw, SASS 71385 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Good guy to do business with, you make appointment for your gun and when he's ready to work on it he tells you send and you get it back shortly AO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I could type a whole page of stuff about Lassiter and still not say enough. But I'll say this: I would not hesitate to send him ANY of my guns for repairs, tweaking or tuning. He's a durngood gunsmith and a durngood man. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I posted that I had an interest in getting a 1886 in .45-70. Lassiter saw it and brought his to the Ohio State BP match to show me. He didn't bring it to sell it, just to show me his. That was a really nice thing to do. Good dude!

Fast Enuff Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Agree with all the above. Whatever you need done he will talk to you about it and turn it around when he says he will. Great guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Dick, SASS #12880 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 My son and I went to EOT in 2003 and we were shooting the warm up match in Cajon earlier in the week. Just before the match started, my son's rifle decided to stop ejecting. We found Tom chatting with Longhunter and I heard him say that when he was away at big matches he liked to concentrate on shooting and not work on guns. Despite this, when we told him our problem he grabbed the rifle and took off. He apparently found Evil Roy who sold him a replacement extractor, then jumped into his van to replace and fit the new extractor. He came out of his van just as the safety meeting was starting with the rifle repaired. He wouldn't accept any money for his work, he only would let me pay for the part. Tom lives about 40 minutes away and several times over the years I've had guns break the night before we're due to leave for a major match. Each time when I've called Tom, he's had me come over and fixed it while I waited. I can't say enough good things about Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yul Lose Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I see Lassiter every year at EOT. Every morning he stops at the gate, where I'm stationed and we visit for a minute. Those are the things that keep me coming back to man the gate. He is a pard to ride the river with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fillmore Coffins, SASS #7884 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I got a call from Lassiter recently pertaining to my 87. I suspect I will have a pro-Lassiter post in the near future. Fillmore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosegow Hank #21444 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Tom worked over my Tarus Lightning. Darn thing runs so fast I can't keep up with it. Sure is a lot of fun trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judge'm All Duncan, SASS#67320 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Tom has always had time to talk with me anytime I've seen him. He always has a smile on his face and if I can ever afford to get an 87 I will send it to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spades Hanlin SASS#66204 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Well, to make it short he has done a few guns for me and Bootsie Hill, all are perfect!!!

Irish Red OToole, #48939 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 All these testimonials make me feel REALLY good considering I'm sending a just-aquirred Chinese 87 to him via another shooter going to Bordertown. I'll post a review up as soon as I get it back. But, FJT (whom I trust implicitly) recommended Lassiter. I'm looking forward to a race-ready 87 in the near future.

Korupt Karl Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 ....and I understand he sleeps in a three piece pajama and it's black....duh!!! All kidding aside Tom would give you the shirt off his back. He eats, sleeps and breathes SASS and Cowboy Action Shooting. He is the NUMBER ONE JEDI GUNFIGHTER and is tops on most any list I can think of. KK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
