Does anyone out there have any experience with them? Specifically with 1911 builds and mods. Thanks for your replys.

I know some guys who have & they were happy.

Given the usual turn-over of employees at any given shop, YMMV.

What work were you wanting done, if I may ask?

I'm curious as well. I'd like to get their extended/beveled magazine well installed while my gun is in for repair. Maybe some front strap and mainspring housing checkering too, while I'm at it.

I just sent my GI micro in for the TRP package. Might be overkill, but it will be neat.

Thanks for the replys. I was just curious myself. I had recently read an article giving the shop good marks and wanted to know if anyone here had first-hand knowledge. divkat9-Be sure to post pic's and a range report when your G.I./TRP gets back.

Deb at the custom shop tells me it will take 8-10 weeks for the work. I'll be sure to post some pictures.
I guess it is a pretty extensive upgrade so I'm happy to wait.
