    Sidearms & Scatterguns Life after my Kimber full size 1911?

    That doesn't make them a custom shop, and if the OP wants to search will take about 2 minutes to find and verify this. Colt has a custom shop, Springfield has a custom shop. Kimber has the custom shop dies.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Life after my Kimber full size 1911?

    NOT THROUGH KIMBER!!! They have no actual custom shop. Call SACS, Colt Custom, Alchemy Custom, Combat Precision and there's many others as well. Dan Wesson's are very nice guns for the money!

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Life after my Kimber full size 1911?

    A smith can tighten up and smooth the gun out. A new barrel and bushing will bring that back to life, have them add your choice of ignition components, add the features you want and done. If you liked the Springfield keep an eye out for a SACS gun- Springfield Custom are some of the best in...

    If you like the Kimber why not send it out for a rebuild and some custom work?

    Gunsmithing AR upper and barrel fit

    Mine was the AR15 version, not the 10. But iirc the manual states to lube the outside of barrel/chamber where it slides into the upper. My WOA barrel required some taps to get it fully seated- just means Mega is holding tolerances tighter which was what the intent was going with quality parts...

    Gunsmithing Custom, Matching Sidearm/Long-Gun (1911) Set--Any Interest?

    1) It's been done before by Nighthawk/KAC I think. 2) I don't know how this will go over/if it's allowed.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Help with 1911 commander choice

    I'm a big Springfield fan. If you're patient you should be able to find a used Vbob for a deal- prices on DW's are all over the board sometimes, but they are VERY nice guns.

    Good idea BCM..... Bad timing (am i screwed?)

    The flaw with your theory is you had the choice to wait for a complete upper, or buy one minus BCG and hope to get one later. Good luck on the hunt and just keep checking their site.

    Whats up with RGUNS.net

    To be fair I emailed again and finally heard back- Phone does nothing but go to a full voicemail. From the email I'm going to guess they're in face saving mode and trying to get SOME sort of replies out. These were the 2 replies " yes just backed up. working on it." "Lowers have been shipping...

    Custom .308 F-Class Rifle on Savage Action - Guide and Request for Input

    If going to that extent I'd add a PTG bolt just because. And also highly second (well fifth or tenth now) ditching SSS and going with Rayhill. SSS does good work from all accounts- IF you can be extremely patient and get lucky.

    I owned a Tactical US - the ONLY reason I sold it is I just don't shoot .40. If it had been a 9mm I would still own it.
