Defense for the regular dude, man.

We're a no-BS, no-pressure shop for straight-shooting folks who want honest answers, top-notch craftsmanship and real-world expertise, with zero attitude included. Whether you need the right spring for a DIY build or want an apocalypse-grade custom AR, we've got you covered.

Every visit is by appointment, 8 AM to 4:30 PM, seven days a week. That's on purpose: it means full attention, no missed details, and time to actually talk through what you need.

As a Type 07 Federal Firearms Licensee with Class 2 Special Occupational Tax status, we can sell, transfer and manufacture firearms and NFA items like suppressors. Our founders and staff hold formal gunsmithing degrees and factory certifications, with over 100 years of combined, hands-on experience, and we're a recognized service-disabled veteran-owned small business.
