Passion Behind Our Firearm Craft
A lot has happened since Gary Reeder started building guns in the early 80s. Beginning in Tennessee and continuing into Florida, Gary knew that Florida would not be the state where he hung his hat. In 1994, he relocated to Flagstaff, Arizona. Gary originally started Reeder Custom Guns (doing business as The Pistol Parlor), utilizing a small section in the back of the gun shop. However, in no time, he outgrew the space. Gary and an expert crew now have 3,000 square feet to call home. The fully equipped machine shop is located next door to The Pistol Parlor. The Pistol Parlor, operated by Gary's wife Colleen, displays many of the Reeder Custom Guns.
Initially building full custom Remington XP-100s and full custom Contenders, now there are over five dozen custom revolver series, including cowboy guns and larger caliber hunting handguns, full custom Thompson Center Contenders, G-2s and Encores, complete custom large caliber hunting rifles, full custom 1911s, and many one-of-a-kind specialty guns.
