Blair County Smiths...
I need a quote from a local-ish smith. I'd like to have the barrel shortened and the front sight reinstalled on my 22lr rifle. Can anyone recommend a good gunsmith around the Altoona area?
Thanks -Bob

Re: Blair County Smiths...
I've heard Riggle's Gap works on guns...and a place called McConnel's. I have no experience with either of them.
BUCKMARK is a member here and from my understanding he is a smith down in Everett It will be interesting to see who all you find around here, I wasn't able to find much

Re: Blair County Smiths...
I do work out of Everett Pa.
Is Macintyre (sp) still in bidness over there in Duncansville? If I'm too far away, maybe give him a call....he was supposed to be pretty good....years back. I lost track of him.

Re: Blair County Smiths...
I don't know if Mc is still operating. I have had work done by Dick at Riggles Gap Gun Shop and he is GTG.

Re: Blair County Smiths...
I'll chime in that Macintyre at least still had his signs up, so I would assume that he is operating.
He hosed me hardcore on my first rifle though....so I don't go there.

Re: Blair County Smiths...
Thanks for the leads. I'm going to check out Riggles Gap whenever I'm out that way.
