I have a Norinco AKM that needs some furniture work. O ordered a nice set from Boyds however what was sent simply needs some milling/drilling to make it work. Rather then butcher it and make things worse I am looking for any suggestions. Any smith youd trust with stock/wood work? I live in Olympia but would travel for the right guy. Thanks all!

Black Hammer Arms right there in Tacoma

He did a great job fitting up some wood to a craptastical AK build I had done for my dad. Not sure if he does the wood all the time or just took pity on my lack of talent but he can also Cerakote anything to make it look like a bazillion dollars.

Black Hammer doesn't have time. Which is good for them but bad for me. Anyone else know of any decent gunsmiths in the Tacoma/South Sound area?

Maybe look for a woodworker buddy. This is not difficult work
