After a few years of shooting USPSA I decided to invest in a new Limited gun.  I would just like some suggestions on Gunsmiths in Phoenix to look at.  I am planning on going to 1911 Heaven and Kennedy Kustom.  Are there any others that I should check out.

Oops, sorry, I forgot those guys.  I heard handgun and I tend to think of the Accuracy Speaks guys as more for long guns but you are right they do have a "full service" shop.

And you are right Rio is Mecca (my wife refers to it as Saint Rio of the Bullet since that is where I spend many Sunday mornings!)

FYI, Kennedy Custom is permanently out of business. Check some sources on the other company you mentioned in the initial post and form your own opinions. (hint: no one else mentioned them)

Another note:

Kodiak Precision, does incredible work! Don is the only one that does my trigger jobs.

Take care,
