So, Saturday after training, I went up to Fulton County to see the Yoda of Smiths at the Sand Burr Gun Ranch. It was sort of like the movie Shooter but Michael Pena was not in the passenger seat and I was not wanted by federal law enforcement . . . at that time. "Welcome to Fulton County, the patron county of shooting stuff", I exclaimed aloud after pulling into the gravel parking lot, driveway.
I unlimbered my case of Smiths for Denny to evaluate and moseyed in. I was greeted with a shout and a protest that I had cost him money as he had bet against me showing up. I told him a little rain would not melt me even though I am so sweet.
I showed him some of my greatgrandfather's guns (which he told me to lube and put away, he refused to risk taking them apart) and then we go right to business of a M625, couple of M64s and a M19 that I want to save. (What was really scary is that he held his hands over the 625 without touching it and told me what was wrong with it. I was completely dumbfounded).
Anywho, one gun that I really wanted him to fix was my great-grandmother's farm gun, a Smith I frame .22. He advised that I needed to contact C.F Gunworks near me in Frankfort. I need a new hand and ratchet.
Anyone had parts made for a geriactric Smith?
