Aces and 8's in Chambersburg?

**alynch** · September 27th, 2016, 11:06 AM

Hey everyone,I was looking into the Cerakote and saw that there is a local place that opened up in June of 2015 that does it and is a gunsmith. I am not finding a lot of reviews online about them except what is on their facebook page.
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with them and can let me know if they are any good. It would he nice not to have to mail it if I don't have to buy I also don't want to get somebody who doesn't know what they are doing.
I am interested in three cerakote and eventually I am looking to replace the sights with the trijicon night sights. It's a Kimber 1911 so they are pretty tight and hard to get out and I have seen horror stories of gunsmiths destroying new night sights. With the price tag I don't want that to happen.
Thanks everyone.

I am not familiar with Aces and 8's but Carlisle Gun Works has completed several jobs for me and I am very satisfied.

Good luck. Give Mike a call and explain what you're looking for. He specializes in 1911s. I'm not sure if he offers cerakoting.

He does get busy at times so don't be surprised if he tells you he won't get to it for a while (we are closing on hunting season so he probably has a few rifle projects). I've left guns with him for as long as 3-4 months but I knew that going in to the repairs. His turn around times and estimates have always been accurate and he communicates well with updates on progress.
