......to port the barrel on a .357 revolver
Is allen your all around man? I've got a sporterized 30-06 1917 enfield. I took it to a local gun smith who charged me a lot told me my scope was broken. I THINK it's the mounts. For the money I paid he did put on two rings which cracked 3 shots in. The wood they used to destroy that peice if history but the mounts lead a lot to be desired by the visible eye. I think thay may have something to do with the minute of deer accuracy I achieve. It also kicks like a mule but I don't think that's that whole story. May even need crowned. I hate that it was sporterized, but it is what is and it's still got some history in its bones so if I could reasonably get it fixed I'd like to salvage it (never sold one and don't plan on it, I just by em-benefits of an unwed man).
I've also got a Marlin 1894, really like that gun a lot and I'm currently hunting with it. It's got the Marlin lever problem and I need a new carrier and a part of the cam ground. The local "smith" was also perplexed by this (it's all over the internet has a name "Marlin Jam")
Anyone have a good guy in central or East Central Indiana?
He only needs ports. All you need to do that is a drill bit and a drill.I'm really good with a dremel tool!

The Marlin Jam often gets the blame for other problems that the user is unaware of. PM me and we can discuss.Is allen your all around man? I've got a sporterized 30-06 1917 enfield.

My brother had Magnaport port a revolver many years ago and they did an excellent job. I'm sure they still do top notch work.Man, I appreciate the positive comments. I do alot of general gunsmithing but right now the bodyshop is so slammed I am spending most of my time helping out there.
Unfortunately I have had to put off new gun work until after first of the year so I can get through the holidays and finish what I have now.
That doesn't mean I am no longer doing it though.
In the meantime look at https://magnaport.com/
For porting the 357. I know there not local but its what they do.
