Mike's background isn't just gunsmithing school. Thirty years of mechanical experience and parts department management means he understands both function and sourcing. He publishes prices upfront (no guessing games), keeps estimates valid for 30 days, and doesn't hide behind corporate speak. The work speaks for itself: trigger work, action jobs, complete rifle assembly, and custom finishes like GunSkins.
