Japan auctions Posted December 11, 2021 Report Posted December 11, 2021 Hi Everybody, I have a customer in Germany who has many matchlock stocks, barrels and parts which he had collected with the intention of having his restorer there put them together. However, his restorer has suddenly passed away, so he is looking for a new restorer nearby who could do this work. If any of you know of someone, I'd appreciate to hear from you! Thanks, Kelly Schmidt Quote

Peter, unfortunately many of the museums here aren’t able to restore their own stuff as they would like, for several reasons. So he can’t expect much help from their…. I think Kelly’s customer has to find one of the few gunsmiths, probably in the Suhl area?! Quote

redhugster Posted December 14, 2021 Report Posted December 14, 2021 I know we are a little way away but I know an exellent gunsmith in the UK (south coast). He used to shoot them as well at international level which helps..... Quote
