THE GUNMAKER
As a lifelong hunter with a passion for the outdoors and a love of rifles, I count myself very fortunate to have made a career out of building top quality hunting rifles.
After receiving formal gunsmithing training at Yavapai College in Prescott, Arizona in 2012, my wife, son, and I moved back to our hometown of Weathersfield, Vermont and set up shop, officially starting MNR Custom, LLC.
By the grace of God, and with the support of many loyal customers, we’ve slowly grown the business over the last ten years into a premium name in the custom rifle industry.
​
A passion for hunting is what drew me into gunmaking and I certainly haven’t forgotten that first love. The time spent afield with my sons and wife is some of my most cherished. I also thoroughly enjoy hearing back from customers who’ve just returned from a great hunting adventure.
As a firm believer in sustainable use conservation and youth hunter outreach, I’ve volunteered as an instructor for the State of Vermont’s youth hunter education program, and currently serve on the board of directors for Dallas Safari Club Northeast.
I’m honored to be recognized as a professional stockmaker in the American Custom Gunmakers Guild.

BEHIND THE SCENES
Originally from suburban Colorado, hunting and guns were something I married into, learning about them both in the backwoods of Alaska after we were married and now at home in beautiful Vermont.
With a background in event planning, interior design, graphic design, and almost every other creative outlet, I work behind the scenes of MNR Custom, from the website and promotional details, to the bookwork and working the booth at DSC.
Besides raising two strong boys, I volunteer on the board of DSC Northeast and work for the American Custom Gunmakers Guild.
