Crusader Tactical

Danny Jones built his first custom rifle because he hated the cheap quad rail on his store-bought gun. That led to another build. Then another. What started as a hobby became an obsession with firearms customization—the same way his father taught him to approach business: seriously, and with integrity.

When a competitor offered to buy Danny's construction company, he and Andy Shidell decided to do something different. Andy had spent 20+ years in law enforcement and 15+ years as a federal firearms instructor. Danny had the business chops. Together, they opened Crusader Tactical with one goal: fix what's wrong with most gun stores.

"Walking into a gun store should be just like a kid walking into a toy store. We treat our customers the way we want to be treated, and help each person make an informed decision so they feel confident when they leave." — Danny Jones

Danny's background in large-scale construction means he actually understands how to build and modify things. Andy's federal firearms instructor credentials and Glock armorer certification mean the advice you get is informed by real training experience, not just retail.
