Captain Clark 743 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I need some info on reputable gunsmiths in the greater Minneapolis area to pass along to my son that lives up there. He’s knowledgeable on firearms, but isn’t really the DIY gun plumbers that most of us cowboy types are. Who is the go to pistol Smith in that part of Minnesota? Hoping you cowboys from up in the cold country can help me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve helped him with hardware recommendations, but it’s a 1300 mile drive for me to lend him a hand with installation Edited January 21 by Captain Clark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tex Jones, SASS 2263 800 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 If it's a simple installation checking with local gun stores is easier as Ahlman's is around 50 miles south of Minneapolis. Depending on where your son is located, e.g. Arnzen Arms in Eden Prairie could help him. There are others. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
