Gunsmithing and Firearm Machine Services
At Reed’s Precision Machine, located at 844 W 400 N, Logan, we have a long-standing tradition of providing top-tier machining services. As a trusted partner in the firearm and gunsmithing industry, we offer unparalleled expertise in firearm fabrication and customization for both military and civilian applications. Our dedication to quality and precision ensures that every project meets the stringent standards of our diverse clientele.
Firearm Fabrication and Customization
Our certified welding services include MIG, TIG, GAS, and ARC welding. These techniques are essential for constructing and repairing various firearm components. Whether it’s assembling intricate firearm frames or customizing parts, our skilled welders use state-of-the-art equipment to ensure strength and durability. For instance, TIG welding is often used for its precision and clean finish, ideal for creating aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound firearm parts.
Our CNC turning capabilities are second to none, employing an array of high-precision lathes, including the MORISEIKI NLX-2500/700 Twin Spindle with live tooling, and several MAZAK Quick Turn models. These machines allow us to create detailed and precise cylindrical parts such as barrels, suppressors, and receivers. The twin spindle configuration of the MORISEIKI NLX-2500/700, for example, enables us to work on multiple operations simultaneously, significantly reducing production time while maintaining high accuracy.
Firearm customization is a critical service we offer, utilizing our advanced CNC milling equipment. Our MAZAK VARIAXIS 500-5XII 5-axis pallet machine and other vertical machining centers, like the HAAS VF-8, enable us to produce complex, multi-dimensional parts. These machines are perfect for creating custom grips, scopes mounts, and intricate receiver modifications. The 5-axis capability allows for machining parts with complex geometries in a single setup, ensuring consistency and precision.
Using the TYMA ZETALASE™, our laser etching services provide a high-quality finish for marking serial numbers, logos, and other identifiers on firearm components. This process is crucial for both compliance and personalization. The precision of laser etching ensures clear, permanent markings on materials such as steel, aluminum, and plastic, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics of the firearm.
Our tumbling services provide the necessary finishing touches to firearm parts, ensuring smooth edges and surfaces. This process is essential for preparing components for assembly and enhancing their overall durability and performance.
We utilize equipment such as the Bundle Saw AMADA Automatic Feed and Horizontal/Vertical KALAMAZOO Saws for cutting and preparing raw materials. These saws are indispensable for creating blanks that are then further machined into precise firearm components. For example, cut-off saws are used to prepare stock materials into manageable sizes for further processing, ensuring efficiency and precision in subsequent machining operations.
Reed’s Precision Machine excels in fabricating both metal and plastic parts with high precision. We cater to the specific needs of the firearm industry, from creating high-performance parts to specialty, precision, and customized components. Our CNC lathe and mill capabilities allow us to produce intricate parts with superb accuracy, essential for the reliability and performance of firearms.
We understand the critical importance of material traceability in the firearm industry. Our material traceability system tracks every piece of material from its source to the finished product. This ensures that all components meet the required specifications and standards, providing our customers with confidence in the quality and origin of the materials used in their firearms.
