Chose this place cause they have great reviews, but that was a mistake. Took a handgun in to get sights installed and they took almost a week longer than I was told. Fine... but I go to pick it up and there are several scratches on both sides of the slide from their work. I left 2 voice messages and sent pictures of what happened and finally they called back and told me to bring it in to look at it. I only sought a professional to install the sights to avoid scratches. I have seen people change out sights with a mallet and punch without scratching the slide. I could and would have done it myself if I knew scratching would be a result. They put some true blue on which did nothing and when I asked if it would hold up, they said not like the original finish (that they scratched). I asked what could be done to return the gun to the state it was in when I brought it to them for professional gunsmithing, they said the only way to really get rid of the scratches was re-doing the finish which is about $200 worth of work. They offered a $40 cleaning for $200 worth of damages they that caused. Spoke to a few employees about it and they blamed faulty equipment and said it was normal for sight installation to scratch guns even though I have seen sight installations done without scratching the finish. They told me they understood and would be upset too… but that their only remedy is the free cleaning. They did not back up their work and did not do right by there mistake.

Ricky is the sweetest and friendliest guy and he absolutely knows what hes doing. I feel so fortunate that I found a place where I can trust someone with my firearms, helping maintain or fix them, and someone who also has helped offer suggestions. Even when I dont need anything taken care of, if Im in the area Im happy to stop by and say hi to Rickys friendly face.

Probably the absolute best place to get your guns cleaned. The ultrasonic cleaning they offer is excellent for the price and quality. Saves me a ton of time cleaning my guns by hand and their ultrasonic cleaner does way a better job than I can anyways. Cant beat it.

Did not know what to expect since I havent needed a gunsmith for over 15 years. Ricky was recommended to me by C-2 Tactical. I had an excellent experience at a fair price. I highly recommend him.

I am an AVID 1911 Enthusiast, because as we all know .45 is Gods Caliber. However, one of my HIGH END 1911s (Rock Island) was having some serious issues and I finally caved in and decided to bring it to a Gun Smith.I wrapped that bad boy up in a few plush Microfiber towels that I bought from Auto Zone and brought it in to Valley Forge. Ricky greeted me with a kind smile and and assured me that my gun would be extremely well taken care of.I got the gun back in better condition than I gave it yo him due to his keen eye for detail. Thanks for taking care of my baby. #1911 #GodsCaliber

Ricky at Valley Forge inside C2 helped me with switching out my stock sights with my new suppressor sights. He was fast and did for me while I waited and I got to shoot it right after so that I could zero it in with red dot. Thanks!!! Love the staff at Valley Forge and C2.

I went and saw Ricky the gunsmith at C2 Tactical to swap out some sights on my Walther PPQ Sub comapact. I dropped the gun off and w/in 2 hrs Ricky called me and said it was ready to pick up and he did a really nice install with no scratches on my frame at all. Ricky is also a very polite and well demeanored person unlike some other gunsmiths that are surly. I highly recommend Ricky if you are looking for a reliable gunsmith.

Ricky is an expert in all things firearm related. He convinced me that 40 S&W was an awful caliber and that friends do not let friends by any Springfield XDs. Ricky is a great man with the most beautiful beard in all the land.

I left my Fn-509 with Ricky for about two weeks. I initially wanted the apex trigger installed, which he had done in less than 24 hours and he wanted to test the trigger pull before I left with the gun and paid for it. I had the upper at home and came to find out after initial takedown my striker tip snapped off after just 750 rounds. I seemed to have lost the very small spring stop pin in the process, or when the striker failed. I contacted FN after Ricky said I should and they sent everything over and he had it done quickly and efficiently. Much obliged, I’ll be back!

Ricky was able to restore my 1911 to working condition and is now more reliable than any Tupperware gun on the market.

I was a hardcore Hi Point enthusiast but Ricky was able to show me the error of my ways and now I am a Glockaholic. He hast installed red dots, triggers, and iron sights to truly make my Glock gucci and worthy of the perfection slogan.

Had sights replaced on 2 handguns. Rear sights are crooked and not properly seated. Put a bore sight on both and one shoots 10-12 low at 25 yds and the other is aiming somewhere near 11 oclock. Very disappointed. Sending both back to manufacturer for OEM replacements.

These guys not only know their way around guns, they are exceptionally helpful. They have worked on a number of my guns and I have always been happy with their work and the reasonableness of their prices. Very nice people, too.

Was using the range at C2 Scottsdale and had an issue with my Glock 17 Gen 5. Talked to the gunsmith at Valley Forge and he took a look at the gun, and had some suggestions. Was polite, respectful, and knowledgeable. Excellent service and I was impressed. I will use them going forward for any gun work I need including periodic deep cleaning beyond what I can do. Very happy that they have a shop at C2. Vet owned which is a big plus, too.

The guys here at Valley Forge Weaponry were super friendly and helpful. They explained everything that might need to be done to my father’s firearm that was passed down to me. Would recommend to any fellow little lady shooter.

Been there a few times now and have worked with both the guys at different times. I have had nothing but good experiences so far. They have a nice setup and are very friendly and knowledgeable. Certainly recommend checking them out while you are in C2 tactical, or even going there just to see them if you need some gunsmithing done.

When asked what a professional looks like it is easy to use Stephen as an example. Throughout talks and opinions on what would be best and look best for my p320(what he suggested I buy and is now my edc) he was very thorough and knowledgeable. He even told me hed buy the cerakote paint I wanted if he didnt have it in stock. He is worth the 3+ hour drive to purchase firearms and services from and has found a customer for life.
