Reeder is a hack. His guns are way overpolished, as if by an angry 800lb gorilla. His attention to detail is non-existent. As is any sense of taste. His guns are cheaper because there are things other gunsmiths do in their conversions that he does not, such as lineboring and blocking the action on his five shots. His so called-engraving is often misplaced, misaligned or has no flow to it. Often the depth is uneven from one section to the next. He takes a stencil, puts it where he wants and goes to it.
