I'm a self taught gun maker from the mountains of North Carolina at the Tennessee and Virginia borders. I grew up seeing and handling family and friends surviving squirrel rifles , muskets and a few larger caliber rifles . My family has been in these mountains sense the early mid -1700 my 10th generation grandfather was William"ol Man Bill" Blevins along with him at least 16 grandfathers and uncles are recorded longhunters As I grew older anywhere I heard of a survivor or an old rifle on display or owned by family I'd go see if I could handle her and take pictures and measurements. I build what I've learned by laying my hands on.
I try to build a good quality gun with great parts and I'd like to see everyone be able to own a good rifle or smoothie to enjoy if they really want one.
Thank you for taking a little time to get to know me and taking interest in my work.
