    Drilling/tapping receiver - Wgtn area

    Arvo all, anyone know who could drill and tap a receiver - prefer closer to Wellington.
    Its just a older .22 that I want to get a rail or bases on for the kids, sentimental value, so don't' want to double its actual value with the work!

    I really have to strongly disagree with that last part, have had to ban him from a few groups for being the biggest arsehole I have ever encountered online-not to me but to a lot of other group members.
    He has some fucked up agendas and vendettas.

    He had done a bit of work for me, and I have been happy with it all but I very much doubt I'll get him to do anything else

    Your normally looking at 30min of whatever there rate is. If they are fitting a rail that would increase. None of the established guys are going to overcharge for it as it's the sort of work the leads to more work
