Guns require on-going maintenance and servicing, like any mechanism, they are prone to wear and tear and from time to time need to undergo repairs and servicing. Our fully qualified gunsmith provides an extensive repair and maintenance service at our workshop in Sussex.
We undertake repairs on guns and restoration projects all receiving the same attention to detail from our master craftsman.
We can collect within central London (see Delivery/Collection page for costs), you can bring the gun in to store yourself or request a repair during your gun’s time in storage.
Every gun is different, we’ll discuss your requirements and provide you with no obligation quotes for our repair, servicing and restoration service.
We tailor repairs to your gun and provide highly competitive pricing for service, mechanism, wood and barrel work.
