I actually live within driving distance of Scott McDougall, & Co. Montana Hawk (the shooting range next to their place) is where I do a lot of my shooting. Anyway, I have had them work on some of my pistols before (not a Colt Mustang though). SM& Co. does a very good job but IMO their prices (for a lot of their work) are too damn high. I can't help you about the Colt Mustang, but I just wanted to give my overall impression of the place...which is they do very good work, but grossly overcharge. An example is when they use to do DA action/trigger work on Ruger and S&W revolvers. They wanted $200 dollars to smooth up the DA trigger pull. I was able to find several other places that could do the same work for a lot less. FWIW, Scott McDougall & Co mysteriously gave up on doing trigger work on Ruger revolvers about three years ago.
