Anybody know a good gunsmith?

[fretwise]

I have a 1911 that has an integrated front sight and a itty bitty rear sight (which seems proprietary to the gun). I am looking to get a dovetail milled in the front and possible the back milled to fit a standard sight. Anybody know of a gun smith who can do a professional job in a timely manner? I would prefer to keep it semi local (at least in the state or north Texas). Any help is appreciated!

Try Durning Custom in Tuttle. He does fine work and is also an OSA member. He has another one of mine right now

While they are not local, I sent a Combat Commander slide to Novak for front dovetail and low mount rear cuts with sight installation. Was very pleased with quality and turn time. Sure is good to support local guys, though.
