Air Gun smith

Since Don Nygord passed, I've been unable to find a good air gun smith in state. Any suggestions?
Air Arms "sells" airguns but they don't service what they have sold. Thanks.

Spring piston airguns? They're pretty straightforward mechanical devices and easy to work on. I've rebuilt about half a dozen of my own including a couple of Air Arms TX200's. If you are looking to replace seals or springs try Air Rifle Headquarters. They supply a large selection of seals and the lubricants necessary to complete the job. I've also sourced seals and springs from Vortek Products.

For spring guns you'll need to buy or cobble together a spring compressor in order to safely disassemble the power plant.

Just had them work on a old air pistol for me. Great service!

The OP didn't mention the make/model of gun. However, I've had good repair work and tunes also done by https://airgunwerks.com/ ...and a tuner that goes by MotorHead in Cali.
