Thread: Pistol gunsmiths

Is anyone aware of gunsmiths in the north island that are bonafide revolver gurus?

The problem with posting pistols away to gunsmiths is the paperwork, and most gunsmiths don't seem to want to touch them.

I have a rossi M511 that needs work and parts. Just interested to see if a name popped out of the woodwork that might be useful.

Contact your local pistol club.

I think Dean Maisey in Tauranga qualified as a S&W tech.

I'm a member of my local pistol club. That's how I'm allowed to own pistols

I chatted to Bill Halley, he offered some advice but nothing to really resolve the issue.
If anyone knows a source for Rossi M511 parts...

really the only smiths that I know who specialise in pistols is colin bell at collin bell and to my knowledge I don't think he does much with revolvers

Try tracking down Earl Wyatt in Upper Hutt although I don't know if he is still doing any gunsmith work anymore. Very clever man.
