I live a few miles from the Traditions customer service . They are very accommodating and have several gun smiths on their staff in Old Saybrook CT. As I have mentioned before if you are looking for a Traditions BP give them a call, they usually have a scratch & dent for significant discount. My Pennsylvanian LG was discounted a few $100 for a blemish in the wood that I have a hard time finding when I go to show someone.
