FIREARMS MANUFACTURING & MACHINING
FIREARM INDUSTRY SERVICES
Firearms range from small handguns to large weapons used by the military and other specialists. As such, they require many different parts and pieces.
We work with businesses in the firearms industry to produce the parts they require, however, we do not do assembly. The industry also requires a number of other special products, including tooling, triggers, safety equipment, fixtures and lower/upper receivers. Our trained experts can assist clients with many of these needs.
TYPICAL FIELDS OF APPLICATION
Here are a few of the typical applications of parts we create for the firearms industry.
Small, Vital Parts
The small parts of the safety and the trigger are vital to firearms and safe use. Without these parts working as they should, the firearm could injure the user or others nearby.
Precise & Durable Casings
The casings of every firearm must be made from strong materials, however must be exact to blueprint specifications.
Rapid Prototyping
In order to create new products, firearm manufacturers often need to design and create a series of prototypes. We can rapidly create the base prototype and subsequent versions until the final product is ready for mass production.
BENEFITS FOR FIREARMS INDUSTRY
Our specialized services provide the firearms industry with several benefits.
Clean, Crisp Lines
The parts we cut have very clean, crisp lines without any damage or hanging pieces of material. This means they smoothly fit into the firearm, its clip, and any other accessories used.
Runs of Various Sizes
Firearm Manufacturing often needs both very small and very large production runs. Our machines run 24 hours, so we can meet any of these needs.
Damage-Free Machining
We use Wire EDM to create triggers, fixtures and lower/upper receivers that have no burrs or other damage on the machined part.

Wire EDM is Not Just for Tooling
You can think of wire EDM as the non-contact, 21st Century version of the fretsaw. A fretsaw is used to cut complex shapes from blocks of wood. The key to its versatility is the blade, which is essentially just an abrasive wire. Being thin and able to cut on all sides, the woodworker can turn it easily to follow…
