Anyone know of a good 1911 smith around the Detroit area?
Have a Springfield Milspec 1911 that I want to get some Novak sights on and blended bevertail on.

Thanks

Does she work on Springfield 1911's?
Does she do small/smaller jobs?
Thanks, Terry.

I've had some work done by Bruce Warren. Always happy with his results. May be a little far, but worth the drive.

Here's a link.

Another vote for Marianne Carniak. She does fantastic work.

A few years ago she turned this plain-jane blue Colt Commander:

Nice looking gun, did she fit that beavertail or did you add it later?

She fit it. It lines up beautifully when gripped...

Doug Jones used to be over there as well, don't know if he still is or not. He did some work on a Delta Elite for me years ago, it turned out great and he was quick on the turn around.

Another vote for Marianne. She has done one of my Kimbers and currently has a TRP that is getting completely re-worked.

Bruce Warren severely fucked up a brand new Series 70 for me.

I've been a competitive shooter for over 25 years and live within five miles of BCArmory and have never heard of him until now. He must be just starting out.
