Does anyone out there know of a good smith in indiana that you would trust to cut a barrel. I would like to get my 700 pss cut to 20 or 18.5 inches and dont really know who to take it to.

Ray Saltzman - Saltzman Gun Works - Tipton, IN
Mark Penrod, I believe is still in North Manchester, IN, unless he moved recently.
I do know that Ray has several jobs lined up so wait time may be an issue.

Re: Indiana gunsmith
I dont know who Elmores uses, but they have someone they contract out work to. He was able to thread a M9 barrel and make a thread protector for me.
There is an English guy in Indy, old school gunsmith that works on everything from Webleys to Safari Rifles.....
Not much help I know

Re: Indiana gunsmith
Elmore's send stuff off to Saltzman and he does great work.
I have personal experience with AJ Brown's work and I can't recommend him highly enough. Any of my comprehensive work will go to AJ.
If you're in or near Indy I have a friend who does my barrel threading for me and does a nice job. PM me and I can get you set up with him.

Re: Indiana gunsmith
Geoff Corn. Have not had any work done by him but he was recommended to me, by a good friend that had him build his duty rifle(EPD swat) and I have a few buddies that have had brakes and barrel work done by him and I am impressed. Plus he is about an hour from me, the first time I need a new barrel on something other then a savage I will be seeing this guy.

Re: Indiana gunsmith
Geoff Corn rebuilt my friend's M1A and did an outstanding job, shoots like a dream now.
I was also able to handle Rem700 that Geoff had built and he definitely does nice work.

Re: Indiana gunsmith
I contacted A.J. Brown yesterday and I am dropping off rifle today. The good thing about it is he is not far from where I leave and was very helpful over the phone. Thanks again for all your help and I cannt wait to see the work he has done.

Re: Indiana gunsmith
Dropped rifle off yesterday and got to look at some of his work. Got to say they all looked good and he could not have been any nicer. I will post before and after pics when I get it back around first of the week.
