Nimble Fingers SASS# 25439 Posted June 30, 2023 Posted June 30, 2023 I was reading a post and saw someone mention (I think) Guy/Gary Rughar that does firearm restoration? Now my memory is playing tricks and I can’t find the post that mentions him. Does anyone have his contact info? I have a couple of firearms I wouldn’t mind letting him work on possibly. Funny thing is I live about 20 minutes away snd never heard of him. Thanks.

Larry Earp SASS#60034 Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Gary has closed up shop after 35 years. Neuropathy finally did his hands in. A real shame, he did fabulous work.

Waimea Posted July 2, 2023 Posted July 2, 2023 Island Gunsmithing Ponte Verde Beach. El Q Jones is his alias I sent him my most prized possession. If my house was on fire and I could save one thing it would be my Grandfather's Drilling. It had water damage to the stock due to a flood. It just made me sad to look at it. It took him about two weeks to do the job but it was better than the original finish. It looks fantastic! El Q was very good with communication throughout the process. Asked me questions on what I wanted and did not just make arbitrary decisions without consulting me first. I give him my highest recommendation! Waimea
