When someone thinks about custom 1911's they instantly think about John Yanek and the incredible work he does with these pistols. John states:
"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."

Although CAMP FREEDOM makes reasonable efforts to list all extra and ancillary expenses not included in hunt, travel, service and other items, lists of expenses in auction item descriptions should not be considered exhaustive or definitive and CAMP FREEDOM will not be held responsible for their completeness or accuracy. The amounts of additional expenses listed in auction item descriptions are approximations and are subject to change without notice. Bidders should contact relevant donors before bidding for additional and updated information about expenses one can expect to incur in taking a hunt or trip or in using a service or item.
