After about a year of procrastinating finally packaged up my T/D SS BLR in .308 and mailed it off to Neil Jones in PA for a trigger job. Neil told me via email to expect about a 3 pound pull with a little creep on initial pick up.
I'll report back after getting the rifle if anyone is interested. $120 plus shipping both ways. Nice thing about the TD is you only have to send the butt section.
If this one works out my .358 will go to him next.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Neil fixed my .358 that both my local "Browning" authorized gunsmith and Browning Service service screwed me for 4 months making it worst each time, once I found out about Neil I called and shipped it off. He had it back in under two weeks and it shot beautifully after his magic! He is the only BLR trigger guy I know of that does such great work!

Neil did my 7 mm 08. He was FAST and the trigger is awesome! I am gonna send him a 308 soon. I really like the blr once the trigger is done by Neil!

Neil did a great job. The trigger has only a very small amount of take up and breaks right around 3 pounds just as he said it would.
I plan on sending him my .358 BLR next.

Just got the .358 back and Neil did a great job on it as well. Fast turnaround and reasonable shipping charges. Will be sending him my BL22 next.

Sent my third and last rifle Browning to Neil, a BL-22. He did an outstanding job on it as well. I can't feel any creep in the trigger at all and it breaks around 4 pounds. Well worth the money.
