WELCOME TO JOHN YANEK CUSTOM GUN WORKS INC.
I specialize in the customization of the 1911. I have been pistolsmithing since 1979. All work, with the exception of bluing and plating, is performed by me. My passion for the trade is fueled by my love of the outdoors, hunting and the shooting sports.
Before any gun leaves my shop it is tested for 100% reliability and accuracy. While earlier in my career I built many compensated pistols, some for professional shooters, I no longer build comp guns.
Some of my notable clients include:
- The late Col. Charlie Beckwith
- Kinber
- Delta Force operatives
- Border Patrol
- Secret Service, FBI Agents, and Police Officers
