Individual mastery is still alive in the gun business, but pretty much solely in trades such as custom stock makers, engravers, and gunsmiths whose success and continued existence depends upon their personal competence.
One such master craftsman is Nelson Ford, dba “The Gunsmith, Inc.” in Phoenix, Arizona. Nelson is a graduate of the Colorado School of Trades and has been a full-time self-employed gunsmith since his graduation in 1980.
Nelson Ford has developed a reputation as one of the nation’s foremost pistol smiths and a leading expert
on the nuances of Smith and Wesson revolvers.
