    They did a great job on your 1902. It looks like you found a good place that knows what they're doing. Thanks for sharing with us, especially the before and after pictures.

    I know, bumping an old thread here. I'm trying to find someone to (possibly) restore my 1913 Colt 1911. Scott Gahimer couldn't really recommend anyone since Bill passed. The gun is in OK shape, but the slide has been heavily sanded - to the point where the "Colt" has completely disappeared and the hard edges are wavy. I'm really not sure there's enough metal to straighten it up, and not sure if the Colt logo can be replaced. Any help appreciated!
