Hi all, I'm looking to see if anyone knows of or could recommend someone for this job. Basically a friend of mine has a shotgun, very old but still licenced. He knows that his great grandfather used it, possibly even his great great grandfather. So its quite old. It hasn't been fired for many years, the last he remembers…

Hi all,
I'm looking to see if anyone knows of or could recommend someone for this job.
Basically a friend of mine has a shotgun, very old but still licenced. He knows that his great grandfather used it, possibly even his great great grandfather. So its quite old.
It hasn't been fired for many years, the last he remembers is his father definitely used it a few times around the farm.
I'm told its a double trigger sxs, theres some rust around the barrel and the stock would need replacing.
he would like to have it restored to working condition rather than get rid of it. He's living in south meath, but I can't see anywhere in leinster being too far for him.
Any recommendations?
