Detroit Armament

Detroit Armament operates as a federally licensed dealer handling firearms sales, transfers, and NFA items. But the real value is James—the owner who actually knows what he's talking about and treats customers like people, not transactions.

• •Transfers & NFA Work: Standard FFL transfers and specialized NFA transfers with attention to detail. Digital fingerprint service (encrypted, personal access) makes Form 4 filing easier.
• •Training: USCCA partner offering NRA courses plus one-on-one instruction. Concealed carry classes adapted for individual needs—arthritis concerns, balance issues, real-world scenarios.
• •Gunsmith & Armorer: FFL transfers, NFA transfers, armorer work, and other technical services.
• •Custom Lowers: Detroit Armament manufactures its own line—historically significant builds including the MK18 Crane lower and T91 lower. Custom markings available.
• •Consignment Sales: Verified on GunBroker; can sell firearms on commission.

"For the last four years, James has been an excellent resource for me. Not only that, but he's a Midwesterner at heart and will work with you to get a deal on a firearm that you want or an NFA item." — Long-term customer

James doesn't just process paperwork. He'll walk you through price points on models you're considering, help you find gear packages that actually save money, and even meet you at the range to test-fit your suppressor while waiting for ATF approval. Training classes are small enough for real questions and cover material—21-foot rule, shooting from awkward positions, off-hand techniques—that standard CPL classes skip.

Detroit Armament positions itself as an educational center and mental health advocacy supporter. The store stocks firearms, accessories, and handles fingerprinting services. Customers mention competitive pricing and a cat-friendly atmosphere during the 4473 process.
