Wow!!! Sir i live in london. But im from the philippines 🇵🇭 if i want to order gun is it possible to buy one ?

I shoot uspsa. This is my first season with a 2011 (switch from canik.) I have the staccato xl limited edition with the island barrel. Should i go aluminum or steel to help with balance? Having a hard time getting my scores back to what i could do with the light canik. So far, i am not impressed with the 2011 thing, but want to give it a fair shake. The wife got it for me as a gift, so i am really trying to make it work.

The Cobra is astonishingly good. My most favorite shooter. I pick it up and it screams confidence and accuracy. The pistol is something special.

Absolutely incredible craftsmanship. That rose gold/damascus is too damn sexy. Will definitely be going with a black/rose gold island ported barrel build next year at some point.

Thank you so much for making this. I've been struggling to make mechanical sense of why 1911s are so touchy compared to other guns for dry fire. It makes much more sense that the humans with super strong opinions on this topic are the touchy ones.

Can I change my tac-ultra slide to a pro-match slide?

Absolutely beautiful! Top of the totem pole!

This man really just runs a clinic on how much he charges for his services to these kind of firearms and the slams the door on over half of the business he would receive for fixing it. As if two grand wasn`t enough for the trouble. Better off getting a full-blown custom 1911 or something else altogether.

According to your site u don't do this anymore

Forgot to mention, the young folk might not know it’s all about the lockup. Thanks again

I talked to you on the phone, you might remember I complimented you on your front slide and frame beveling and was hoping you would build me a 4.6 with Atlas parts ( still hoping for that by the way ), going to sell my Atlas and go Hayes, venom looks interesting though, but a bit to much and don’t really want a spyder on my firearm, I used all those jigs back in the colt days, I going to call you again and see if you will build me a 4.6 island. Impeccable work, thanks Pete

Another video with something learned, thank you!

I was looking at a used Clark custom oh well no just kidding that's a great story like hearing those kind of stories !

I really wana just come hangout eventually u are awesome

Can we get a cobra build tour of the shop sometime? Picking up my first 2011, a cobra from TAG!

Glad to see You carry on the Family Tradition. I can say I was shooting 1911's before Glock was a thing! Clark to me, is noted as a Fine custom gun and sought after! Thank You Mr.Hayes

I would absolutely love to do something like this as I have a little ocd problem that works to my advantage most of the time. Great job.

Oooo how I hate imperial. Why don’t you go metric like the whole world

I dont see the competition upgrade for the Rock Island on your website. What is the price of this upgrade? Does include the Copper looking parts including the barrel?

cheap way to make them drop-proof. cheaper than a titanium firing pin.... or a series 80 block.

How many beans 🫘 would a Damascus slide 1911/2011 build be? I'm sure that's probably $10,000-$15,000? I'm just now getting into the custom builds and watching all these videos, I will have one some day. I just bought a Staccato P a week ago and I'm as happy as can be with this but I know this is probably about like a taurus compared to the custom stuff 😆🤦‍♂️. That is one beautiful peice for sure and someone is a very lucky guy or gal to have that in their collection. Good job on that one 👏 👍 👌

These videos are so cool. Thanks for sharing Ben!

I think videos like this are awesome. I’d love to come do some work for afew days you can pay me in rangetime lol 😂

Great info from the old days.

Very nice job!!! 😎

Thanks for the knowledge drop, these are interesting to see. Continued success sir. 👍🏻

I have a Clark mark I ruger with the best trigger he offered the best .22 he also built a 38 super for my dad Dad was injured in WWII and his hands where a little weak later in life that 38 super was on his night stand the day he past

Hey maybe since you worked there maybe you can answer a hotly debated subject about hood width can you share what clark did with hood length and especially width. Thanks !!

Too bad about Clark wish they were still around as far as builds go.

Man Iv'e been looking for a set of those shims !

Power custom is still making the slide spreader, and PTG is making the slide bars....all sold at midway.😢

Is the erratic ejection pattern a concern?

Own a 1970s clark longslide heavy .....its a masterpiece.....also very rare two tone built by jim clark sr

I would love to trick my Ria 38 hi upgraded, would you guys be able to work on the 38 super?

My dream gun, RIA TAC ultra Hayes customs.. How i wish i could have those upgrades, unfortunately, no chance here in the Philippines.. 😩

Was this a steel or aluminum grip?

The 6in slide pre dates the 1911 with browning's orginal 1898 prtotype gun as well as colts 1900 production gun of said prtotype.

Dose Hayes custom do gunsmithing work guns that are not from Hayes custom? I have a infinity with a sight tracker I’d like to get ported, like the one in this video.

Great info, CRAZY flat shooter!

Hayes: i dont recommend spending more then 2000 Also Hayes: Base price for upgraded gun 1000 for the gun 1100 for upgrades.

Is there really considerable chances of cracks in aluminum grips on 40S&W Major Factor?

Been looking for my one high end pistol. This video really tilts me your way. Skips Guns introduced me to your shop on a recent video. I was looking at Atlas, Vudoo and this really has me curios as to what can be done for my 'one gun'. Thanks for making this video! P.S. I just saw that Skips reply to this thread 3 months ago.

FYI, can confirm that Atlas triggers do not drop into a polymer STI grip. A little judicious filing of the shoe and it fits fine now. I wanted the shortest shoe possible as this gun is for my son and his hands are smallish. Atlas has a very short flat faced shoe as an option. Have not had any issues with the length/width of the bow. There is adequate take up. FWIW I agree on "drop in" not being a thing with 1911. Building an AR-15 is like Legos, building a 1911 is like fine scale modeling.

Will the gen 2 mag catch you sell work on a prodigy?

Are there any recommendations to make the .40's and 10's better? Anyone you can suggest for having work or selling parts?

Can’t wait for mine!

He just reminds me of Chevy chase and I love it lol

Thank you. Just ordered & received a 12 shell caddy and wasn't sure I made the correct hand choice. I did! 😁

This one is the dream for me... Steal frame tank only would like a thread barrel for it for comp only as range toy... Im a Glock guy but i imagine this would be a one of the softest 9mm out there.... I always liked the para p18 as a kid when I would look through gun magazines... so this is definitely me...

"no longer friends" LOL
