1911 smith in Prescott?

Post by Cjhollenshead »

It’s time to give my over used under appreciated 1911 a face lift. Anyone know any good smiths in Prescott that are 1911 masters? Need the slide fit/probably built up some, re-finish, all new springs , possibly a barrel fit as well. TIA

i;d say chuck rodgers at rodgers precision, but expect he'd be busy for the next decades, chuck does some awesome work, might try finks, rumo is they do ok, google it, you'll find quite a view well though of 1911 smiths are in the area.

Doesn't GunSite have the Gunsmithy? Paulden is only about 20mis north of Prescott.
Also, I'd check with Mazy's in Chino Valley. If they don't have their own, perhaps they
can refer you...

Good luck getting ahold of Chuck Rodger's.
Heard Finks does some good work.

Dave Fink works out of the Gunsmithy at Gunsite. He does wonderful work!
