Hello.

I'm a new rifle owner (me being new, the rifle being old...) and also living on the island, compiling a list of possible gunsmiths to look at my very very old Ross. From my searches here, a have about a half-dozen possibilities, but the posts that I got these names from are several months to years old, and I don't know if they are still active.

Guntech (Dennis Sorenson) - tried him, email rebounded as no recipient
Pullen's Gunsmithing - close and local, but old mention
Gone Fishin' - nearest is Duncan, but not too far away for me
Silhouette Shop (Vern Swarbrick) - Also Duncan
Murray Charlton - reportedly retired a few years ago
Bits of Pieces - Across the water on the mainland, also heard mixed reviews?

Any up-to-date information or recommendations anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
GUNTECH is retired , John Pullen is deceased ..not sure if the shop is being run , GONE FISHIN is not a smithing shop per se .. may have contacts for you , MD CHARLTON in Victoria might be helpful with references.
 
First and foremost, it'd be for them to check over my Ross to see if there were any concerns that the previous owner overlooked, and it is as serviceable as I hope it to be.

Then maybe down the line I might look at seeing if it is possible to make modifications from single shot to 5-round internal mag. Keeping it .22 LR of course.
 
I would try to find a Ross rifle collector/aficionado beer you I’m sure they will be more than happy to look it over. You can also ask around which smith as the most experience with Ross rifles cause that is more important than a smith close to you, you can always shop the rifle to them to look it over.
