I have a 1911 I'd like to have beadblasted and reblued and have the scallop added to the ejection port. I called GanderMtn (they're close to where I live) $150.00 for the blueing alone and the killer is a 3 month turn around time.

I really have no experience with local smiths other than Ikey Starks who I've been told is retired. if anyone could recommend someone that you trust I'd appreciate it much.
