Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska Looking for a good gunsmith in Anchorage

Thank you!!! Ill give him a ring either tomorrow or early next week. Probably still be a few weeks before I can even get it dropped off.

Having first hand info of some of his stunts which were clearly way outside the law, my opinion is based on more than his work...

Oh, forgot to mention we have had this conversation before and you know what he did... if you do not care how he holds information private, even when absolutely required by law, or doesn't... that is your call.

Not to get into the furball, but I have to give a thumbs down for Alaska Custom Firearms. I left a 1911 to have the slide fitted, trigger, and sights installed and fitted, as well as a nitride coating- my instructions were "Cost is not my concern, I just want it done right" He had the pistol for 18 months, and the front sight (dovetail) has a gap that you can fit a dime under. The ejector at the rear is all mangled up, and leaves ugly uneven gaps at the rear of the slide. Since the parts have now been nitrided, they cannot be worked or refitted. I'm stuck with a $2500 1911 that looks like bubba put together in his basement using a ball peen hammer.

You are a broke dick, because googling a name would be a quicker answer then asking the other broke dicks on this site.

You are confused (no one is surprised) I’m conversing with a bunch of dicks.

Great post. Thanks for sharing.

may i suggest "Precision Arms" they are in the book....really good guy, skilled gunsmith, works out of his home near UAA and is moderately priced.

And has Stan Jackson do anything that involves machining... he is a good guy for very simple stuff.

Thanks for all the advice guys, I’m looking forward to getting this project done, it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, should make a perfect gun for when I’m out on my raft.

I actuallly dropped a timney trigger in it today and shot it a few times but that barre needs to get cut back, the Talley quick release rings are sweet too.
