If anyone is looking for a great gunsmith in the MetroWest area, Sergey Lyalko of Rustblue Gunsmithing in Natick is the person to call. If you own a surplus AK or SKS, Sergey might have worked on it when he was a gunsmith in the Russian Army. He is a great individual as well as gunsmith. Recommend him for all my clients. He can be reached at 508-652-0081, Cell:508-904-4044 or e-mail rustbluing@yahoo.com.
No, I got nothing but crickets when I asked about him. So while he might be a perfectly fine gunsmith, I went elsewhere.
I'm looking for a gunsmith to install some night sights on my H&K. I really don't want to toy aruond with them myself and would like to just let a pro do it. I'm located on the North Shore between the 93 and 128 loop. Anyone have any recommendations? I see AG Guns is listed on the list, anyone have experience with them?
Anybody know anything about Jeff Ashe / Harvard Gunsmithing? The guys at Blue Northern recommended him to me but I wondered if anybody else had ever used him.
OK. I need to send a new S&W M&P40 out for a trigger job. I love the gun, but the MA compliant trigger is killing me. It really does come down to adjusting this trigger or getting rid of the pistol. Anyway, it seems that two names keep popping up for M&P trigger jobs in my area, Derr Precision and Dave Santurri. I am not price sensitive. I want the best for this particular trigger job. What's the consensus here regarding these two gunsmiths and their respective abilities with this particular model?

Dave is my first choice, both have worked on my guns and Dave ha fixed things Greg could not. Other than that it may just be a choice of who is closer.
JMHO
OK. , it seems that two names keep popping up for M&P trigger jobs in my area, Derr Precision and Dave Santurri.

There used to be a guy in Dartmouth, MA "The Village Gunsmith" I think his name was Ken Pacheco. A good guy. Anyone know of him and if he is still in business?
Yes he's still around. He sold his shop on Rt 6 and built a building behind his house. TN 508 993-4093
I paid a visit to Greg Derr's shop yesterday and he gave me the 25cent tour. I've never seen such a neat, well-organized and well-lit gun shop before. I was very impressed. I've also been very impressed with the quality of his work.
OK who is Dave Santurri ???
I have been thinking of going with Derr or LaRocca, I have never heard of Santurri, do you have a link to his web site???
(edit: OK I googled his web site, so all set there)
Any gunsmiths in the greater new bedford area?
