    Default Hello!

    Hello everyone! I?m Eric, based here in the Springs. I wanted to get into Tactical Rifle Shooting, and I figured this forum had relevant information on it. I?m in the process of building a 13.7, and I?d love to have recommendations for gunsmiths who can pin and weld a muzzle device! Thank you!

    Welcome, join the fray.

    Some folks in the know for your area will be along to give recommendations.

    Very popular Tactical rifle match down your way as well.

    Hello hello ~

    If you'd like to come out to compete & work on your skills, there are 2 different monthly matches listed in the 'Shooting events & training' section. Read the first post in each thread for specifics & if you have any questions after that, you're welcome to send me a private message. No pressure - just good fun & great folk.

    Welcome.

    While I've never used his services myself, Earl Hickman, of Hickman Rifles is considered to be the best smith in the Springs.

    Sup Eric. Cook's Gun Repair, Jim Cook, by Galley and Valley does good work if you don't mind waiting a few weeks.
    Make yourself an account on practiscore, many matches coordinate through that website. Hoser's is a great match, very popular and fills up fast.

    I used to attend the same church as Jim (we were both on the same ministry team). He can come off a little grumpy, but he's actually a really good guy. I've seen some of his work and have nothing negative to say about the quality.
