If you asked me about the most under-the-radar smith that builds one hell of a gun (and I love bull barrel builds), I'd say Rob.

That price is just silly good when looking at what the competition charges

For years Rob refused to build on a Colt base gun because they are notoriously crooked and the front straps are frequently too thin to checker on. Well, he recently built me a Colt. If it were not for that, I would never concede selling this masterpiece. Given Rob’s reputation this gun is worth its weight in gold.

I always liked his business model. Build it and offer it for sale what you see is what you get. No expectations to worry about.
