Full description and what we offer

Rock River Tactical is run by Andrew Ready, a Service-Disabled Veteran who spent two decades in the U.S. Army—including nine years as a security contractor in the Middle East. He's a GLOCK Certified Armorer and Summa Cum Laude graduate of Sonoran Desert Institute with an Associate of Science in Firearms Technology. That background shapes everything: precision, reliability, and accountability.

"Reliability is non-negotiable, especially for tactical and defense platforms."

ARs and AKs are their specialty. Services include:

  • Optic Installation & Bore Sighting — Scope and red dot mounting with proper lapping, eye relief, manufacturer-specified torque, and preliminary zero. Brands installed: Trijicon, EOTech, Aimpoint, Vortex, Leupold.
  • Trigger Upgrades — Drop-in and two-stage triggers (Geissele, Timney, Rise Armament) with fit and function verification.
  • Ergonomic Improvements — Stocks, adjustable braces, grips, charging handles, free-float handguards.

Dirt and carbon cause malfunctions. Rock River Tactical addresses this with two tiers:
