Gunsmithing Louisiana Gunsmith - William Roscoe

[nsmith022]

Just moved to Louisiana and I have a 6.5 creedmoor build I’m trying to get put together. I’ve read a lot of good things about William Roscoe but don’t know if he’s still doing work.
Does anyone have his contact info or someone else that is reputable?
Thanks!

What part of Louisiana?

 

[nsmith022]

Lafayette

He posts here, send him a PM. Last I checked he was very busy, which cuts into his time here. That was a while ago though. Goes by Wnroscoe

 

[themightytimmah]

I think he’s just doing work for friends at this point, heard he had a year backlog a few years back and he took his website down. He recommended Short Action Customs when I talked to him about a project a while back.

I have local guy in Metairie building a rifle for me now. I have another one of his builds and it easily shoots to the capability of the shooter and the ammo. Fast turnaround and he’s fairly priced (machinist by trade). PM me if you want his contact information.

Hi,

You could also try Don Geraci in Independence. You will be hard pressed to find anyone more capable.

Sincerely,
Theis

Got any contact info?

 

[themightytimmah]

Juan Perez - (504) 382-9719. Give him a call, he’s not a big text or email guy. Juan mostly builds tactical style rifles. Here’s a pic of the Creedmoor he built for me



Don Geraci is a legend and a great choice too.

Spoke to Don. I’ve got a MPA Matrix chassis and he isn’t fond of any of that. Oh well. Anyone else have a contact for someone who could help me out?

Give Juan a call. Tell him you got his contact from Tim. What are the other parts you’ve specced out?

That’s pretty much a bolt together job, no? Shouldn’t require any machining, maybe needs cerakote?

Thanks for the kind words and interest. The rumors are true. I only build for close personnel friends now. This site has always been respectful of me and appreciative of my work. Thanks to each and everyone one of you.

By trade I'm an Electrical & Mechanical Contractor and have been extremely busy. I just cant take rifle work and make another shooter wait months or over a year for their rifle.

A few names that come to mind as far as builders go;
Mark Gordon
Jared Joplin

 

[El Cid 92]

Being near Jackson, MS....

I'd talk to the gents at Deep South Tactical. They build some very nice rifles.

Just a thought.

You go it!

If you are just looking for someone to professionally CeraKote your components, you can easily find who is a factory certified coater within a certain radius of your location.

https://www.cerakote.com/find-applicator

If that service is your primary goal, I would encourage you to use someone that coats a lot of firearms with the actual product you want used.

William - I was looking for your contact as I have one of your rifles.

I got it in a trade from a friend and I was looking for some details on it.

Try Jon Slagle @ L3 Rifles. He does a lot of work for PRS shooters from the southeast to Texas. He learned from the best, Robert Gradous. He really builds some hammers. He also does pre-fit barrels. Cell 706-951-4987 email [email protected]

Hello Mr. Roscoe,

My name is Lee and I was just reading about a chambering fixture that you use for chambering barrels. The article it was not difficult to make your fixture but to do that I would need some pictures and basic dimensions. I know this kind of stuff is a pain but I'm wanting be able to do my own chambering now ( just turned 75) and funds just aren't there for extra's. So if you have a few moments I's truly appreciate it. Email is [email protected].

My best to you,

Lee Whiteley
