Conversations you never think you will have.
Upon hearing "Mama, help! It's stuck." From the other room, I had to go to investigate.

Now, while we are not opposed to staging around your home in case of emergencies, I do have to leave you with the same advice that I just imparted upon our 3-year-old.
"You shouldn't store your gun in the microwave."
Happy Monday!

Technique beats gear… but good gear sure makes training more fun.

If you’re working on your skills this week, pick ONE thing to tighten up and run it for 10 minutes a day. Small reps add up fast.

And if you want to rep BCAC while you’re putting in the work, our TeePublic shop is an easy way to support the family business!

No matter your era, we got your six.

Tools of the trade. Not everything has to be fancy, just functional! Sometimes even a block of wood with a hole in it is exactly what you need to finish a job.

What's your most-used tool? Drop it in the comments – we'd love to know!

Definitely some good information. The detailed pictures are cute for the family photo albums, but when it comes to social media its best to be vague.

Our Service Area is coming together! A dedicated space just inside the shop door for customer greeting, and efficiency of incoming and outgoing work.

Our space is slowly coming together bit by bit. Everything having its place. Organization isn't just about looking good. It's about respecting the craft and setting yourself up for success.

Continuing to build something we're proud of.

Starting your own gunsmithing journey? Here's the truth—you don't need everything at once. Start with the essentials: quality hand tools, proper lubricants, and a good workspace. Build from there.

Invest in quality. Invest in tools that last. And remember, sometimes the best tool is the one you make yourself.
