Reccomendation on good 1991 gun smith in SE Texas

#1

Post by DiverDn »

I have an old government Colt that I would like to make into an IDPA gun. It does not have the original slide so it isn't a collector’s piece. Someone over the years has made some modifications to it and not knowing my way around 1911's I need someone to go though it, make it safe and reliable. Hopefully in the process they can make it a good self defense/IDPA gun for me.
Thanks,

DD

I've used Ed Vanden Berg in Webster to build or modify my 1911's for more years than I can remember. His shop is on Hwy. 3 in Webster, across from Ellington Field.

Now after you get your gun back, come shoot our monthly IDPA matches at PSC. Here's a link for more information: http://www.cottonfamily.com/psc-idpa

Chas,

Thanks for the invite and the recommendation. I just might try to make it over next month. Currently I am shooting the Golden Triangle Gun club matches and the Orange matches. They say variety is the spice of life.
