I picked-up my 742 rem. today from the gunsmith. It had grease or oil, and fingerprints all over the receiver . To top it off he charged $25.00 to install a dust cover on the bolt and $12.00 for the cover!!!

He then told me it needed cleaning. I knew the action was needing a cleaning. He said it would cost AT LEAST $35.00 for the cleaning. I told him it still shot good. Looks like I will be finding a new smithy.
