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.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

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. 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!
