Paul Liebenberg of Pistol Dynamics is widely considered to be one of the finest pistol-smiths on the planet. When you ask other well-known handgun smiths whom they would rank among the very best, Liebenberg is a consensus pick. And Paul’s work is in high demand. There is a multi-year-long waiting list for his custom pistols, mostly built on 1911-platforms.

Some years back, Liebenberg shared his pistol building/tuning knowledge in a professional DVD from Panteao Productions. In that DVD, Liebenberg demonstrated the procedures he employs when crafting a custom 1911 pistol. The DVD’s topics covered included: fitting barrel and barrel bushing, installing grip safety and thumb safety, installing and tuning the trigger, installing and tuning extractor and ejector, relieving the mag well, undercutting the trigger guard, lowering the ejection port, and much more. Below are two YouTube videos that cover highlights from the DVD.
