Good gunsmith in New Orleans, Baton Rouge or Shreveport

My dad died in 1975 and my mom gave me his Marlin lever action .22. It needs some blueing work as well as some stains removed from stock. I would really like to get it refurbished and use it to squirrel hunt. Any recommendations would be great!

Red River Range in Shreveport should be able to take care of you.

James Willis in Oak Grove about 10 miles south of Shreveport has done excellent work for me

James Willis in Oak Grove
He's done some good work for me in the past, as well. Prices are reasonable and turn around quick. I'd advise that you call ahead of time to be sure he's open that day, despite the hours listed on his website. 3-4 mos ago I drove there on hour to drop off an XP-100 to have the muzzle threaded for a suppressor. Unfortunately, he was closed. I then drove 20 min to Clark's in Haughton and they took care of the job. Clark's is good, but pricey. In addition, their machinist is there only on Tuesdays so I had to leave the gun there for him to do the work a few days later. If you go to Clark's and like Ruger 10/22's you might to bring a few extra $$$$'s w/ you. They had >20 custom 10/22's on display. The most expensive one was $2500.
