Apart from Roger at Rimfire Magic does anyone know any gun plumbers who can service & slick a Marlin under lever?

We have a club 1894 that needs some tlc.

Rude Fat Dog in Devon can do them. My local plumber can do them too, PJS Precision. Stick to one that the competition shooters trust!

I've fixed up both the club Marlins.
One was so bad it took two hands to open the lever!

You can read up online on what stages to do for a tuning.

Have also slicked up my own Winchester 94.

Thanks guys, I've slicked up my own 1894 & it's as slick as a slick thing, club politics needs it to be done by a gun plumber. ;)

Had my Marlin done with A&A, excellent work and quick turn round.
Had a day at the seaside whilst it was done.
