Edit: 3 seconds after I posted this, I remembered where I saw the gun doc listing.....in the sticky right above my post. I'm an idiot.

I could swear that I once stumbled across a section of the forum listing local gun docs, but I can't seem to find it again (probably right in front of me)

Anyway, for all the good things you hear about Systema PTW's, I have easily managed to bust mine up a few times.

The latest:

A couple of days ago, I dropped mine from shoulder height. The force of the drop caused my rear stock to literally jump a thread. It now sits as though I cross threaded it a good 8 or 10 twists into the rear reciever. I wouldn't have even thought that would be possible, but here we are.

This is where I need a gun doc. I would imagine that someone would need a vice (or one of those fancy receiver clamps) and a torch of some type to heat up the reciever as you try to back the stock out. After that you may need a tap and die to fix the threads up......

I have none of those tools.

Anyone that feels like they can tackle this for some extra beer $$$, please shoot me a PM. Shouldn't be too bad a job with the proper equipment.
