Anyone have any contact details for Ron Hilliard of Thames Valley Arms, please?
They seem to be completely off the grid..............

Ron is moving or has just moved as far as I know.
House and machines, the whole lot.

Landline number sent by pm. Not sure if it still works - something made me think he was keeping his number, but I'm not sure if that's feasible.
He told me he was moving last time he rebarreled for me - circa 2005! Has he finally done it? I'm pretty sure he has done work for GazM very recently.

Thanks for the replies............landline gets an answer machine that hasn't so far.
What I'm looking for is a competent gunsmith within 50 miles of Southampton.
By competent, I mean someone who can thread/chamber/crown a supplied Walther barrel properly.

Ron won't touch Walther Stainless barrels (or he would,nt when I asked him a couple of years ago) Neil McKillop in Reading would be your best bet.

Nothing wrong with Lothar Walther barrels if you know how to machine stainless properly...
