Anyone know a gunsmith who can mount a scope on my rifle?The only two l know of are King is in Glendale, and Jim Hoag in Canoga Park.l was less than pleased with King is the last time l went there, and Jim does not answer his phone in the Yellow Pages.
Well apparently you are not THAT close to him.l went to his website and:

Thanks for all of your inquiry.

Due to the large work load l won’t be taking any other work, complete builds, or true jobs until further notice. l had originally anticipated taking new work after January 2008 but that did not occur due to on going medical issues and special projects.

l think Jim Hoag is no longer working, and l know what you mean about King's. You might try Dean Wilkerson, in North Hills (818 area code).

You may find your answer here.

Try R&D Precision in Glendora- it is just a 25-30 minute drive from L.A. in light traffic.

Randy is a personal friend of mine, and does excellent work on Remington 700s. He can probably scope the rifle while you wait.
