Misc Gunsmith recommendations in SW Ontario
Looking for recommendations for a gunsmith familiar with working on Winchester model 12s in Southern Ontario. Preferably around the KW area.
Looking to have a new barrel cut down and fitted.

Tbh, a lot of the gunsmiths in SW Ontario are total fudds. It's an industry comprised of a lot of boomers who'd rather give you their opinions rather than do the job you're trying to hire them for. Not to mention, they work super slowly and will have backlogs of 3+ months out-of-season.
After a lot of digging, I've found that the gunsmith crew at General Gun & Supply are the best option. Depending on where you are, it may be a bit of a drive, but they're knowledgeable and do great work.
