    SSRNZ no longer gunsmithing

    Scott told me today that following his move to new premises mid-month he will no longer be offering general gunsmithing services and concentrating on his suppressor business and some other opportunities. He advised that the old website has been taken down and details are via the businesses facebook profile - I've yet to check this out.

    What are the thoughts of members based in the lower NI on gunsmithing alternatives ?

    It's been in the pipe for a while.
    Good on him he's come along way from a little shed.

    There's still Allan Carr and Mitch Maxberry, they won't live forever though.

    A little devastated to be honest.

    My hopes of getting one of his lightweight carbines now seems to be slipping away. I don't see too many other smiths offering anything to fill this niche.

    He will still be developing his lightweight Carbines etc as time permits.

    He is still doing suppressors etc, just not general Gunsmithing.

    Here is his new website, Home
