Shotgun gunsmith

Looking for a shotgun gunsmith to do a custom stock fitting. I live in the Greenwood area.
thanks

I would check with the Indiana gun club first. If they no longer do the work in house I am sure they would have some good references.

Jeff is located in Greenwood & does great work. He has worked on a few of my weapons. Always professional, reasonably priced & quality work.

Does he do shotgun fitting? I hear that is uncommon trade within the gun smithing community. I'll give him a call

I don't think fitting a stock to a shooter to be a gunsmith's task.

Fitting wood to an action is IMHO different.

I did however get a cheap OU that was too high of comb, took that down keeping sensible proportions to rest of stock.
Problem then was it needed bent at the wrist to drop it to be like my reg factory Rem (good fit for me) field guns.

Thought about lamps and cradle, giving it a go myself..............but it was usable as is (shot almost 50% on doves with it, but got "clicked" on a few shots. It fit another guy good, so he bought it as is.

IIRC getting fitted isn't an inexpensive deal.....but might be.... considering what some shotguns cost

this is specifically what I'm wanting to be placed:

Adjustable LOP Butt Plate Assembly (For Break Open Shot Guns) - Braun Professional Stock Positioning Systems (SPS), Pad Adjusters, Comb Adjusters, Manufacturing of Shotgun and Rifle Parts. Add-a-rib, add a rib, add on rib

Mary at Downhams and Sons Shooter Supply is a Hall of Fame trap shooter (and a nice lady).
She might know who does that kind of work in IN.
