Gunsmith Work

    

 

 

 

Note: Where two prices are shown, the first price is for replacing the part during Premium Action Work. The second price is for replacing just the part and fitting it with no other work being performed. That price is for opening the revolver, basic internal cleaning, fitting the part, timing, lubrication and re-assembly.
