Opinions on Indianapolis Based Gun Smith

Has any one ever heard or dealt with this gentleman?

Custom Guns by Verne Trester, gunsmith. 317-908-0784.

Id like to take my Mauser 98k action to him and have him true the action, lap the lugs, and square the bolt face.

Is there any one else that you recommend?

From what I understand, he's got a good rep in town.

Another possibility is Ray Saltzman, 765-675-2040. He's located near Tipton, IN. I have a pistol with him right now. I have seen his shop and his work looks very nice. He seems to be well versed in machine work, welding and tempering. He will custom make muzzle brakes for nearly any rifle. Nice stuff. He even has a range behind his house where you can try out your new toy.

Good.
Will you tell him to get ahold of me. I have two mausers here waiting to take to him. :-)

Gun Show

Verne doesn't have a shop here in town anymore but he will be at the 1500 this weekend. His shop is in Centerville. He still has a listed number and an email address
