Gunsmith business for sale
I have an old friend who is going to retire from the gunsmithing business. He made a great living specializing in high end shotgun repairs and has done business for shooters from around the world. At the moment he has over $80k in shotgun parts in stock (at cost- over $150k retail!), a vertical mill, a horizontal mill, a lathe, a barrel boring system, choke tube thread cutters, screw machine, jigs and fixtures and tons of other equipment that you would expect a guy in his line of work to have acquired over the years. He also has everything to make and finish stocks as well as a very slick system/jig to do recoil pads. He can literally build guns from scratch with the equipment he has. The parts are sorted and inventoried; he has most everything for Remington, Browning, Lujdic, Krieghoff, SKB and several other makes. He also has release trigger parts and designs of his own make and he will give the parts, plans and tricks to whoever buys the shop. If you have the mechanical ability to do this type of work, you can drop right in to an existing business and start making money right away! Drop me a line at [email protected] if you think you’d be interested. I’ll be glad to get any of your ?’s answered for you. He hasn’t arrived at a final price for everything, but I imagine the parts, equipment and company will run around $125k and he might work out a deal with someone to help them get started. Thanks! -chad
