Prepared for the Worst, Providing the Best

| I'd try to tackle it yourself. As others have said, it's not that hard. I like to use a wooden toothpick to fish through the hole and line everything up, then kind of act as a slave pin for the actual sear pin. As others have said, it's easier on the double stack guns (which all of yours are) because there's more room for your fingers in the magwell. By the time you get to your fourth one you'll be a pro! If you really don't want to do it yourself, any halfway competent smith or armorer should be able to help you out. Sorry I'm not familiar with your area so I can't make any recommendations. If we weren't halfway across the country apart I'd be happy to help you myself.

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished
| I also recommend doing it yourself. If you are not against watching YouTube, there are some good videos that show the whole process. Unhook the leg of the sear spring before doing anything else. A couple of the videos I fast forwarded through don't show that step and doing that first makes it a lot easier. It's difficult at first to get everything lined up but, as noted, a slave pin or punch of some sort will help. |

Learn it, know it, live it

| Another vote for doing it yourself. There are numerous videos available that can provide assistance. Years ago I performed many DAK-to-DA/SA and DA/SA-to-DAK conversions with very little gunsmithing knowledge.. All I had was a Lenny Magill disassembly and reassembly DVD..  It was very interesting to see how the parts of the pistol worked together. |
