I have a Ranger 103 16ga that I picked up at an auction. It is in very good condition other than a dent in the top barrel. I have checked all of the local gunsmiths but they only have tools for 12 gauge barrels. Can anyone recommend a shop?

Thanks,
Ken

Would it be worth sending to Briley. A friend of mine had some work done by them and I was impressed.

I live in North Central Ohio.
I was hoping to have this done on the cheap. The local shops quoted $20-$25 if it were a 12ga. I know that shipping alone will now cost that much but still would like to keep the total under $100.

Thanks,
Ken

Then Mike Orlen is your best bet. I know he does 16ga, as he did a sxs for me. he also polished the forcing cones while it was there. Fast turn around, very fair prices.
