This is Bob's website http://greensrifles.com/Home_Page.php
Bob is in York, Pa. I started The Barrelman several years ago and sold about 1500 barrels a year before selling out to Jerry Stiller. I was able to make the acquaintence of many gunsmiths across the USA and overseas. Bob was one of the good ones. He bought a lot of barrels,paid his bills promptly, did work for some of the best BR shooters in the USA, and he was very interested in the welfare of his customers.
I do my own BR and fiberglass hunting rifles and the metal work on my woodstocked customs. I have not personally had Bob do anything for me. We are blessed to have several good gunsmiths in the USA. It is too bad that a few bad apples make us wonder about some of the rest.

Just do a search on this forum and you will find several that recommends Bob. http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/2937726/1
Several other threads show the same. He is the only one that comes to mind in Pa. Jim Borden is in Pa. also.

Don Lewis, the PA gun writer, used a gunsmith by the name of James Peightal for all of his gunsmith work. I would guess Mr. Peightal is in PA. Don Lewis had many good things to say about Mr. Peightal's work.

I had the pleasure of shooting with Bob Green, this past weekend. He's a great guy and an excellent gunsmith.

Look up Dave Bruno in Dayton Pa. ( near Kittaning ) He has done 2 builds for me and does top quality work. He does alot of benchrest work.
Also Rich & Jake at Economy gunsmithing ( Economy Pa. ) they are great guys & have a good turnaround time.
