Looking for a gunsmith to fix bolt

[356tsw]

I have a bolt that the firing pin hole needs to be made smaller to stop primer flow.
Thank you for any help. Please pm me.

What kind of bolt?

356tsw, I just had a bolt bushed by Carlsbad. He did a great job. I didn't expect it could look as good as it does. Haven't shot it yet, but don't expect any problems. He is a great guy to deal w/, and very accommodating to his customers.
I also bought one of his thrust bearings for my Hart Rest. That was a solution to a problem I didn't know I had, til I used it.
Give him a shot. Doesn't hurt to ask q's;.

GreTan, but call there are some brands he wont do.

Thanks for the kind words Jim.

As for the others, I don't have anything bad to say about Gretan.

I also have some brands I'm not set up to do. Seems the OP may have forgot to check back on his thread.

I can also put on a larger bolt knob and I also do jeweling.

I'll try to get my own thread going soon with some before and after photos of primer strikes. Fixed a 6br that was piercing primers and cratering badly with 28 grains of VV N150 and 108 bergers. Bushed the firing pin down to .060 and now no problems up to 30 grains.

Carlsbad I am not dissing you and I don't think the others are either. Ive had GreTan do 2 bolts for me, they were back in less than 2 weeks ( shipping both ways included ) and were perfect. He is the not the only one that has very worked on a bolt for me, but he is the only one I will recommend. I don't know you and do not fell I could recommend you only for that reason, you may be better than GreTan I just don't know. Do you have a site where I could see your work? Many options are always better.

Ebb,
No offense taken. I know gretan does good work and many will choose to go with him. I sent the OP a PM making an offer and it won't surprise me if he goes with Gretan. However, a lot of people choose to have me do work for them. There's room for us all here.

Working on a website but been pretty busy.
