Lewman Arms Manufacturing

Lewman Arms Manufacturing is a family-owned shop in Winter Haven, FL that combines retail firearms sales with professional gunsmithing, custom builds, an indoor range, and firearms training. They've built a reputation for serious metalwork and precision builds that go way beyond standard gun shop services.

MG42/M53 Builds are their signature service. They build both semi-auto and full-auto variants starting at $3,250, with a lifetime warranty on every build. All MG42 work is finished in Cerakote—no bluing. They stock welding jigs ($1,200) and 8mm barrels ($450) in-house. Their M53 builds run $9,000.

"We build only on kits that contain all of the original receiver pieces." Semi-auto builds require BRP bolts; full-auto builds follow all NFA regulations.

They handle bore sighting, sight installation, trigger work, headspace checking, and all standard gunsmith labor. Minimum charge is $75 per gun.
