Re: louisiana precision rifles

Re: louisiana precision rifles

William will take good care of you. Send your parts without concern.

Re: louisiana precision rifles

I had him true an action and chamber a barrel for me a few months back. The whole experience was very good, he did what I asked him to do and met the completion date he gave me. Customer service and work is top notch!


PS: Its a shooter!! He is the first one I will call for my next build.

Here is mine it was just finished and shipped back this week. William is a total pro and I would not hesitate to send him your project. He took all ten billion of my calls and 10 times as many questions and never once gave me a funky feeling. check out my sps tactical done thread for more information and range reports.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

judging only by his posts here, if i were to let someone besides myself work on my rifles, he is one of the few people i would trust to do so.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

I've been waiting "forever" for him to build my 260.....okay, not really, but it feels that way

William has great references and his rifles shoot from all accounts I've seen. He's got my parts right now for 1 rifle and parts on the way for a second one too, I have no doubt they'll both be done right.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Everything I have seen and heard of Mr. Roscoe has been of the highest order. As such I have been talking to him for several months since before I even started ordering parts for my current build.

The parts are with him right now and will be done very soon judging by the updates he has been giving me. The fact that he is reaching out to me to let me know how my build is progressing is almost amazing in itself compared to other gunsmiths.

I have no reservations regarding his skill as a gunsmith and his CS has been outstanding.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

I'm waiting on #4 from him. They all shoot to his guarantee. Don't hesitate on sending your stuff to him. It will be right when you get it.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

I have one rifle that William built.

It's a .223AI built on a Stiller Tac30 previously owned by DesertMonkey.

And my action for a new build is with him now (it's gonna be another 7RM).

His workmanship is excellent.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Allow me to put my two cents in here if you don’t mind? Roscoe has a serious case of OCD, that moves me cause I am sick like that to. I know how his mind set is no doubt, we have had many conversations about building platforms. Many Smiths talk the talk but can’t walk the walk, Roscoe can period. I have said it before and I will say it again…

Re: louisiana precision rifles

I have friends and family that have used Mr. Roscoe and their stuff is incredible; and they shoot as good as they look.
I am going to check into whether he would work on the humble project I would like done by someone really good; he is my first choice from what I have seen, though I will never complain about the gap rifle I used to have but sold. I live in La. so I would choose him first; I can drive my gun over there. My opinion is not worth what others here pack with theirs, but thought I would chime in cause when I showed off my GAP to those folks that had his work, I was duly impressed and they know more than I do - into precision shooting much longer at that time than I was. They felt I had made a mistake not going to him. We will find out, soon I hope. Customer service that is great, is super to have, cause I get antsy.

I think this one comment speaks volumes for Mr. Roscoe's work
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

The cat's definitely out of the bag.

Local guys can't get a gun built while you wait anymore.

But I guess when you do quality work, word gets around.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

I'll be sending parts Roscoe's way for my 300wm whenever I can make up my mind on actions. Deciding on him to build the rifle was the easy part. Components, on the other hand, have kicked my behind.

PS. If you guys missed it there is a Roscoe pic thread. Post your build pics for us if you don't mind.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

William builds a hammer for sure

Plus like others have said he is a shooter and a great guy

He took the time to call me after he chambered the barrel and then again before shipping

He really cares about his customers and the guns he ships out

You will be happy

now that is a hell of an endorsement!
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

William came very highly recommended to me by JasonK (thanks again bro!!) and after talking to him on the phone, I knew he was going to build every rifle of mine in the future.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Not that anything more needs to be added, but...

He did some work on an FN SPR for me last year and did a great job. Good communication, fair price, and pretty quick turnaround. "scottishtornado" on here (who I shoot with quite a bit) had a .308 built by Roscoe also. That rifle SHOOTS!

I shipped my LTR off to him last week for a workover, and am still waiting on a few more parts for my 338 Edge build which he's doing. I wish he was local 'cause shipping rifles sucks, but to have them worked by Roscoe it's well worth it!
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

William is very very detailed . His work ethic drives him to put out some great rifles. He also is one heck of a electrician. He does great work and is agreat friend. Thanks Dave Kiff
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

thanks everyone for your responses i have made my decision to have Mr Roscoe build my rifle.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Hucks you will love your rifle when roscoe is done with it. William is so fricking anal about his work its scarey and his customer service is awesome. I shot a 5 shot group at 200 and it measured 1/2 inch. His rifles are more than capable of shooting below 1/4 moa but the big question is, do we have that same capability?.

Re: louisiana precision rifles

William Roscoe is as good as they come...He did a great job on a "project gun" of mine recently, especially considering how much work it needed. Everything on my rifle is now top notch, and the machining is so good its almost impossible to tell where the barrel ends and the muzzle brake begins. Good communication throughout the whole process and he's more than happy to talk about various options and give good advice. Seriously, you can't go wrong with Louisiana Precision.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Don't own a rig by Wn, but I will say that onced upon a time, he willingly lent me a couple hours of ear time which proved to be some of the best advise I have ever received concerning hand reaming chambers.

Re: louisiana precision rifles

I hope you have already sent it by now. William's a hell of a guy and I know you will be more than happy with the work he does!
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

He worked by Jim Clark my pistol smith to KG Gun-Koted my 1911 perfectly.
He chambered my Krieger that shoots em touching at 200yds then kept my phone hot during the first range session making sure the gun was shooting well.
He considers his work product a very serious, personal reflection.

How many more customers do you need to ask?
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

This thread is about what I would expect WMRoscoe has demonstrated his great character and skills. Without a doubt a great guy and a great builder.
 
Re: louisiana precision rifles

Call him. That simple. He did however post that he is currently on hold for new orders in an attempt to catch up. Great guy in every way. Give him a call to be sure.
