staking shotgun shell latches

[WCDUB]

If anyone in the austin texas area has had a shotgun shell latch staked,please tell me:
1.Where you had it done.
2.What it cost.
3.How long it took.

I just want a general idea about this process.

Buy the tool and do it yourself. After tearing my hair trying to find a southern engineered solution to shell latch staking, I bought the correct tool and never looked back.

WCDUB Roger and I both gave you same answer. I suppose you want info on a gunsmith doing it for you? I guess you could call McBrides, Hank Fleming, Central Texas gunworks etc and ask them the cost and how long. It would all depend on their work load. Or you could drop about 35 bucks and buy the tool from Midway and do it yourself..

contact those sources, or get the tool and do it myself.
