Mike Hines has been around guns all his life and enjoyed repairing his own firearms for many years. After 20 years as a locksmith, he was having some physical challenges and began looking for a new career. A friend told him, "Mike, the leap from locksmith to gunsmith is not a big one - you should look into it!" And he did.

After years of schooling and apprenticeship, Mike became a Certified Master Gunsmith. He and his wife, Ginger, opened their own gunsmith business in Peru, Indiana in 2015.

Mike prides himself on accuracy and precision in his craft - which is why customers come back to him time and time again.

Mike's intends to offer firearm safety courses in the future.
