About Jim
After eleven years in a machine shop business where I was doing more and more gun machine work, I opened my own gunsmith business in 1985. Being a lifelong gun and hunting enthusiast it was an easy decision to make. The gun shop provides local gun owners and hunters not only gunsmithing services but I also sell guns, gun accessories, ammunition, and reloading supplies.
I do all of the repairs and modifications myself, including the machine work, to ensure the work is done accurately. I am a detail-oriented and a expert machinist and that has earned me a solid reputation as a gunsmith.
Although my shop is in Watauga Tennessee, my customers come from not only Watauga but Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol, Piney Flats, Bluff City as well as Virginia, North Carolina, and Kentucky.
I count it a privilege to work on your guns, and especially enjoy building special pieces, including modern ignition black powder rifles and other special needs that you have.
