| I'm looking to get some night sights installed on my m&p9c. I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with Paul the gunsmith at bluegrass range in Louisville. He said he could do it for 30 bucks and since I don't have a sight pusher, and I've never done it before this sounds OK to me. I also thought of Danny's gun repair which actually isn't that fair from bluegrass but haven't heard much about him either. So any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. |

I've never used him for actual gunsmithing, but I did ask him a technical question when he came to the concealed-weapons class to answer people's gunsmithing questions. I'd be happy to elaborate further if anyone is interested, but to sum it up his answer was not consistent with first-hand physical evidence I have observed. His answer seemed like rote (sp) memory / old-school wives tales. When I shared my observations that seemed oposite what he was telling me, he dismissed them outright rather than probing further to find the cause of the inconsistency. I'm a mechanical engineer, so I am somewhat competent with machinery.
I can't attest to his competence as a gunsmith, but he is not the inquisitive type. Very nice guy though; very eager to help. |

If you are going to make a statment like that then you will need to elaborate. I knew Paul well before he was the "gunsmith" at bluegrass and to say he Isnt mechanical is laughfable at best. Ps I work along side mechanical, electrical, structural, etc. Engineers on a daily basis. And belive me the guys who read the prints and specs that these guys produce, yeah, we are not impressed. |
