About the Gunsmith
As a journeyman machinist for almost 40 years, I've worked in sheet metal fabrication shops, machine manufacturing facilities, and tool & die shops. Finally the idea hit me to put together what I know with what I love, so I enrolled with the Penn Foster Career School and received a Career Diploma as Gunsmith in 2007. Patton Gunsmith Works opened in Sutherland VA in May of 2008. In 2011, I became a certified AGI Law Enforcement Armorer, and in July of 2018 the shop relocated to beautiful Shenandoah VA and is now open full time.

Safety Tips:
Assume that a gun is always loaded.
Never point a gun at anything you don't intend to shoot.
Always keep your weapon clean and functioning properly.
If your firearms have ever been through a catastrophic event (fire, flood or extended time out in the elements) they should be safety checked and fully cleaned.
