I started shooting matches in 1979 with S&W revolvers. Don't do autos. Got tired of paying someone to work on them, then get it back and poorly done. I'm a tool & die maker by trade, so I started doing my own. There has been a learning curve over the years, but I could always end up with what I wanted, with quality workmanship.

You always pay for your education one way or another, in money, time, ruined parts, buying tools, etc. It has been a fun and rewarding journey though. I can now make a S&W revo into anything I want it to be and have a stable of premium, one of a kind, tack driving ones. For me, the real Performance Center is my shop. Been tuning and building all out custom ones for a long time. Just my personal ones though.
