Can anyone recommend a good smith in San Diego area? Clothy and Sons?

Tagged for interest...as I'm not really sure there is one.

Might help to know what type of gun and what you need done.

It would help if we knew what part of town you live in, what kind of firearm you have, and what you want done.

There are a number of smiths. What do you need done and to what?

Front sight came off my Fed Ordnance 1911 when shooting it. I live by SDSU....a few people have told me to go Duncan's in San Marcos...

If all you need is to put the sight back on you could go see Chase at GunFighterTactical on Miramar Road.

Much closer and I'd be will to bet less expensive with a faster turn around over Duncans.

Close too.

Went to Gunfighter Tact today and they couldn't help nor could Big Shots down the road....

I found a sight online and probably will try to do it myself.....

That's really surprising. Did they not have the tools to install the front sight or was there something else?

Gusslers is a fine little garage shop and I'd bet they could help you.

By the 52 and Mast.

Anyone know someone in SD that can cut down my s12 barrel and pin weld my break at just over the legal SBS limit?

I'm not familiar with Fed Ordnance 1911's but if the front is dovetailed, that's a super easy fix..

If it requires staking, for the money any smith would charge you (except free), I'd buy the staking tool from Brownells and research on google/youtube how to do it on my own..

Good luck!

I'd give Parallax Tactical a call. They have access to the right tools. Seems like you would just need it cut, threaded and then pin/welded..

I've had good results from Parallax Tactical and from North County Firearms.
