Professional Gunsmith in Kansas City for Bbl Replacement?

blsexton · 11-19-2005, 12:16 AM

Have a Post WW1 DWM (parts rebuild after the Great War?) Luger in .30 cal, nice piece and a definite shooter grade pistol. Got into it fairly reasonably priced so I'd like to find a decent 9mm Bbl to install and have a professional put the Bbl on- I don't have the tools or inclination to do this, and I would like to get my original Bbl back UNSCATHED......Is there a gunsmith in the Kansas City Area who any of you would fully recommend?

I also need a few springs, etc any links on where to get parts would be helpful too- I don't follow the forum all the time so I know these links/places have been talked about previously but I can't seem to find them all.

Also, any ideas on where to get a good Bbl- it would be nice to have one with a front sight I could file down along with being drift adjustable

Thanks everyone!

Barrett, I can't answer your question about one in Kansas City, but the best I know is Hugh Clark near Houston, TX. He is a member of this forum with a screen name "Hugh".

Good Luck!!
