Anyone know a gunsmith?

[TX_Hoghunter]

Kind of an odd question for a bow hunting site but does anyone know of a gun smith that works on old rifles? I have a colt lightning 32 cal that was built in 1894. It was given to my parents when I was born in 1965. The firing mechanism seems to work but the pump does not. I do not know if it is completely original but I do know that nothing has been done to it since 1965. I would like to get it in working order. I seldom shoot guns anymore but I would like to send a couple of rounds down it before I sell it.

Thanks.

So your Rat, and he's possum? Did yall's parents not like yall???


BTW a good smith is worth his weight in gold. Ive never found a good one. But I know of several that will never get my business again.

Thanks guys. After making several calls I think I am going to just sell the gun as is. It does not appear that getting it functional will add enough to the value to make it worth doing.
