I have had both of my 1911's recently "rehabbed" by Dave Lauck of D&L Sports. Both are reliable, and shoot really well for me. The emphasis is on "heavy duty" items such as barrel bushings, thumb safeties, and ignition parts. I have never had a problem with either pistol. Lauck is not cheap, however, one must determine what one's life may be worth, and the lives of family and loved ones.
