S&W gunsmith recommendations?

[kaltesherz]

Took my new to me M19 out and it appears the crane is bent- any recommendations of who I should send it to?

contact Frank Glenn in Arizona.

+1 for Frank Glenn. He has worked on several S&Ws and a Python for me.

Thanks for the replies, has anyone sent theirs to Smith and Wesson directly for repairs lately?

Denny Reichard in Indiana. He did an excellent job on my 686

Denny passed away earlier this month.

Denny passed away earlier this month.

Wow. He was a real character, and a hell of a gunsmith. Sad news.

The loss of Mr Reichard at Sand Burr Gun Ranch was a blow to all us wheelgun lovers.

A very big thumbs up regarding Frank Glenn. I have two custom revolvers from him. A friend who is a very serious nationally-known S&W collector recommends him without reservation.

And by very serious - I mean being able to fill up the bed of a full-sized pickup with pistol boxes. I know, I helped upload it.

I would call S&W and if they have the parts to replace it I would let them do it.

Thanks for all the help, I'm sending it to Frank as I might as well get an action job while I'm at it.
