    To anyone curious,
    Jere Irwin has decided to close Ljutic. Pressure due to Washington state’s new FFL requirements going into effect.

    Al and Nadine plus the incredibly famous Ljutic smoothbores create terrific memories!

    wonder if any smiths will continue serving them afterwards?
    maybe a buyout like winchesters custom shop was bought out?

    Problem with aftermarket, specialty made parts are often much higher price than the factory with all the jigs and specks the factory has. Can keep them going, but will cost you more.
