Building The Bespoke 1911: Jason Burton

Jason Burton is the owner of Heirloom Precision and one of the most sought-after pistolsmiths in the trade. His passion for shooting the 1911 led him to dedicating his career to elevating John Browning’s masterpiece to its functional and esthetic peak. He operates a one-man shop where he creates bespoke pistols one at a time until the job is complete. An active competitive shooter, Burton won the Arizona IDPA Championship in 2002. Burton is a professional member of the American Custom Gunmakers Guild and is the Co-Author of the Vicker’s Guide to the 1911 Volumes 1 & 2.
