Model 12 rebuild - who is good?

elrotundamundo · February 15, 2013, 02:06 PM

My son has my dad's old 1946 Field Grade Model 12 and it has worn to the point of incomplete lockup and occasional fail to fire. He wants to send it to someone with lots of Model 12 experience, knowledge, and concern for quality for a complete overhaul. He is not concerned with price, just that he gets quality work. Has anybody had personal experience with a good company or person that can do a really outstanding job?
