Foor Gunsmithing

Tim Foor is a professional gunsmith operating out of Edinboro, Pennsylvania with a Type 01, Class 3 SOT Federal Firearms License and full insurance. Before turning his lifetime passion for firearms into a business, he served 33 years in the U.S. Army as a decorated veteran with two combat deployments. That military background combined with formal training in gunsmithing, mechanical design, machine shop work, and woodworking makes him uniquely equipped to handle complex firearm projects.

"My experience with weapons and craftsmanship go hand-in-hand over the past 40 years."

He's VA-verified as a Service Disabled, Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and can execute VA contracts as an approved vendor.
