I've come to the conclusion recently, that if I'm going to pay someone to do half *ss repairs or alterations on my things - then I might as well screw them up myself for a lot less money. At least this way I will learn something and maybe get a few new tools. That being said, which manuals/ books/videos would you all recommend for someone who wants to do BASIC pistol smithing on the 1911 and HP? Thanks.
