Testing an early prototype of the A.P.C. sling while at a shooting competition in Okinawa, Japan - 2020

Welcome to my shop!

My name is Steven, I'm a former U.S Marine Corps Armorer, Gunsmith, avid shooter, gear addict, and all-around gun guy. Over the last 10 + years, I have had the ability to use gear of all shapes and sizes in both my personal and military career. Along the way, I always noticed that the gear that I was using was not always being designed as efficiently as it could have been. Maybe a smaller buckle here, a lighter material there, the list goes on and on. This all changed once I got stationed in Okinawa, Japan. Here I ran into the crew of Ordnance Tactical, a small family ran shop that handmakes gear for Military units across all of Okinawa. These guys not only helped me bring some of my ideas to life while I was there, they taught me how to sew gear, and introduced me to the idea that I could bring my designs to life myself. And so, after getting out of the Marine Corps, I started getting to work. Armed with nothing but an industrial sewing machine, a laptop, and the skills I acquired, I take care of you every step of the way. Starting with the design of the gear and choosing the best materials, sewing your order, all the way up to taking it to the courier that delivers it to your doorstep. Some of my products might be radical new designs, and others might be small but powerful improvements to existing ones, but there is one constant in all of my work, and that is the attention to detail and passion that I personally handcraft into every piece of gear that leaves my hands and into yours.
