Meet Bernie — Master Gunsmith & Founder

Bernie isn’t just the owner of the shop—he is the shop’s heartbeat. A lifelong firearms enthusiast, Bernie’s journey began in a small garage with a workbench, a few tools, and a relentless curiosity for how things work. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a respected trade, driven by his obsession with precision, quality, and craftsmanship.

With over 30 years of experience, Bernie brings not only technical skill but an old-school work ethic that values integrity, honesty, and doing things the right way—even when it takes longer. He’s known by customers not just for flawless builds and restorations, but for his patience, storytelling, and willingness to share what he knows. Whether he’s blueprinting a custom rifle, breathing new life into a family heirloom, or just offering a bit of advice, Bernie treats every project like it matters—because to him, it does.

Outside the shop, Bernie is a proud father, avid outdoorsman, and lover of craft beer. His hands may be calloused from years at the bench, but his approach is always thoughtful, personal, and precise. Around here, he's more than a gunsmith—he's a legacy in the making.
