I need a gunsmith to take a look at my son's Benelli M2. Just got it for Christmas and after about 8 boxes in the dove fields, the bolt became stuck when we were cleaning it. I have had a SBE II for years and never had an issue with it.

Any recommendation for a gunsmith?

Briley is probably one of the best shotgun smiths in the US and right here in Houston.

Briley is certainly one of the foremost shotgun gunsmiths anywhere, inthe opinions of some. But they charge like it too.
I use Clint Brown at Cypress Gunworks and he has a shop on his place in Cypress. He's a mom-n-pop shop but he does good and, more importantly to me, honest work. In fact, the first thing he did for me was remove a broke screw in my 700 and re-threaded the hole just in case. Once again, first time customer and he didn't charge. He said he'd prefer i bring him "real work" before he charges me. smile Been going to him since.

On top of all that, he has a jack arse you can go hang out with. Literally, he has a donkey on his property.
PM me if you'd like his contact info.


I'm a dude who likes long barrels!
