Customizing your pistol

[Snake Eyez]

I am from Ontario does anyone know if there are companies or gunsmiths who will customize your pistol as in painting them? I am not sure if you have ever seen the movie Romeo and Juillet feat that wash up Leonardo DiCrapio. If so then you will know what I am talking about. Custom pistol grips, custom butt plates for your mag etc. If you have not seen it go rent it, it is not that great of a movie unless you are a fan of him. But the pistols are amazing. For example one of the pistols has a picture of the virgin marie on the pistol grips and all of the pistols have a Montigue or Capulet coat of arms on the butt plate of the mag. Any ideas?

What type of pistol are you trying to customize?

 

[Snake Eyez]

Any pistol in general. I would love to get a colt 1911 A1 and customize the crap out of it.

Nobody has suggestions?

Well if you are thinking of customising a 1911 alumagrips is probably the company to talk to. They make and engrave custom grips.

I think he's asking something along the lines of how do you strip, repaint, or refinish a gun. Like put some artwork on it, or camoflauge it....... maybe clear coat of somekind after??
If that's not what he's asking, i'd sure like to know!!

I am not 100% sure but they might be berretas and 1911's. I am starting to come to an end on this thing, the internet is not much help either. It might just be me typing in wrong Key words.
