Anyone know of any reputable smiths in Ky to build a rifle? Prefer one within a couple hours of Louisville but will be willing to drive some to talk in person about the build.
As the others said "Mark Penrod" does excellent work and the trip north would be worth your trouble. Also don't forget about A.J. Brown, he's a bit further south than Mark and well, just do a search here and you'll find out all you need to know about him, (Mad Skills) and a great guy to talk with.
