1911 smith

[nairbg]

I have just purchased a presentation grade, gold inlaid Colt (1911) Ace as a gift for my son, at his graduation from RMC this spring. It was made in 1981 and is truely a gorgeous piece......... but the trigger pull is awful!! My son shoots on their pistol team, and runs their "shooting club", so he is intimately familiar with a "good trigger". While this piece is a very pretty one, I would hate to present him with this pistol with it's current 15#, long creep trigger pull.

My question is..... Who, in Canada, is "the right man" to send this pistol to for the trigger work. Graduation is May-long, 2007.

I would suggest Armco in Prince George .
He's on this site and has a link to his web site .

.... Also, DLASK in Delta, and "Bits and Pieces" also in Delta. .... These are just the ones in Western Canada that I'm familiar with. ..... David K.

+1 for Gunnar (ARMco)

All of my dealings with him have been excellent. You may want to get him the gun soon, as he tends to be pretty busy.

Excellent gift for your son.

He's done a few trigger jobs on my 1911's and they've been great. He's in Edmonton AB.
