Precisiongunworks Gunsmith

Precision Gunworks isn't a gun store with a gunsmith counter. They're a gunsmith shop—period. Located in Charlevoix, Michigan, this is a certified operation with an associate degree in Gunsmithing and the equipment to prove it: on-site lathe, milling machine, and hot salt bluing facility.

Custom Load Development No factory load will get the best out of your rifle. PGW develops target, varmint, or big game loads specifically for your gun. This is where accuracy starts.

Custom Built Firearms If you have a vision for your perfect rifle, schedule an appointment. It takes hours of discussion to understand what you actually want versus what you think you want. They'll build it.

Accurizing Services - Blueprint your rifle - Fine-tune the trigger - Stock fitting for proper length and fit - Turn a factory gun into a tack driver

PGW's website includes detailed guidance on firearm preservation. Key takeaways:

• •Short-term storage (seasonal use): Gun safe with dehumidifier rod gets you through to next season.

• •Long-term storage (1+ years): Full disassembly, cleaning, and protective storage using Brownells TRIPLE TOUGH RUST-BLOX kits or vacuum sealing. Inspect every five years.

• •Ed's Red Homemade Solvent: PGW recommends this military-grade bore cleaner formula—equal parts acetone, kerosene, ATF, and mineral spirits. Superior cleaning power for powder residue and corrosive ammunition deposits. Cheaper than commercial solvents and more effective.
