Austin Behlert fingerhooks on frontstrap

JJEH · 11-11-2013, 04:50 PM

Guys,

I have a customer that likes those fingerhooks on the front strap. We know that Austin Behlert led the way when it comes to that.

Well, my customer doesn't want a Behlert gun, he rather would like to upgrade his existing 3 inch 1911.

Is there a good gunsmith out there who specializes in that kind of custom work?

I appreciate any help.

Don't know anyone who does that now, but you should check with Olympic Arms. they bought the old MS Safari Arms and did have the hooks for awhile. Don't know if they still so. Also he can look for used Safari Arms stuff
