One of the newest adventures I have had recently has been to work on starting a company that will go hand in hand with MCC. Mossy Creek Arms has been developed to offer something a little different in the AR-15 market. Saturday we were able to put the first gun together, and it is awesome. I want to remind you these are not your standard run of the mill guns. These guns are come from our shop in Nashville with loads of features you won’t see standard anywhere else.
For instance we are only using the Magpul line of stocks and pistol grips on our guns. Magpul magazines come factory standard. Our guns come standard with Backup sights.
Want it to be different than factory, all you have to do is call. We are in the business of making the gun fit the shooter, not the other way around.
By the way for those of you who want to “Do it Yourself, Not By Yourself,” why not come and build your own rifle from one in our shop. This allows you to customize before it ever leaves the shop and gives you complete control over design.
Be looking for the Model 1542 to debut at a cookout soon. Those who come to the cookout will be able to run one of the guns and receive a discount at the time of purchase.
Mossy Creek Custom has been a work in progress for many years. It started with my first job dealing with guns. I was fortunate enough to work for a great guy who was willing to take a chance on me. From that point until now I have been blessed to work with some incredible individuals, all of whom have contributed to make Mossy Creek Custom what it is today.
What separates MCC from other shops is that we are interested in your success as a shooter, competitor, hunter or COP. It’s not just about a sale. Many times we will talk a customer out of sale because we know it won’t be good for him/her in the long run. We want our clients to be well informed and comfortable with all of their purchases and completely satisfied with our gunsmithing.
Some of our services include, L/E contracts for web gear, guns and knives. We have a certified Glock armorer, an AR armorer, and a 1911 armorer ready to customize or repair your weapon. We also do general gun repair, and because we believe in good relationships, if you have a problem we can’t fix, we know someone who can.
Good relationships make all the difference in the world. We know most of our customers on a first name basis, and this helps tremendously when they have a problem. They know they are going to get solid service from someone who cares about their hobby or profession, not someone who is interested in making a sale. If you have any questions, shoot us an email; info@mossycreekcustom.com. We would love to get to know you.
If you haven’t paid much attention to the tactical market lately you may have missed some new names that are manufacturing AR’s. One of the most famous is Remington.
They now own Cobb, DPMS, and Olympic Arms. This makes them the largest manufacturing group of the AR platform, and this is their new R-15. Last year Dave Sams told me that anyone not doing something with AR’s was going to be left behind. I didn’t know what he meant at the time, but seeing the latest add by Remington for their new R-15 rifle may prove his point.
There may be several reasons that everyone from Remington to Charles Daly is now offering AR’s, but certainly one of them is that they are probably the hottest item in long guns right now. Our customers love them for their ability to be customized. It can be a fun process to get a rifle they way you want it, much like a 1911. I have never met two guys at the range the same AR. They all put their own unique style into their rifles.
It will be interesting to see if the latest entries into the AR market by these manufacturers offers anything new, or if they are simply copies. It is possible that this will be push the AR platform to new innovations. The next push before innovation may actually be a price break. It will be interesting to see who takes that route.
