    I had Clarks do some work a while back (years). It took forever (months and months to clean up a Ruger revolver trigger and chamfer the cylinder), but the work was great. Too much internal politics around that place for me, though, and I stopped frequenting their shop or store (it shut down?).

    Willis Arms is also someone I would check out, he can either do it and will tell you, or he can't and will tell you. I've had great luck dealing with him and he has a very nice little shop.

    +1 for James Willis. He is very knowledgeable and there isn't a project I wouldn't trust him with. He is also very reasonable price wise.

    +100 for James Willis, he is a very knowledgable gunsmith... he knows his stuff and does the job right. Just give him and call and pick his brain, he will no disappoint!

    Peace,
    Evan

    Thanks for the suggestions guys but Clark's and Willis both said they will not do the work. Clark's said they don't work on M&P's and Willis won't do trigger work on handguns unless it is a 1911 due to liability reasons. If you guys know of anyone else, please let me know. I think I will call Apex Monday and see if they will do it for me.

    Thanks
