Think of Concept Arms as a hospital for guns.
Like a hospital, diagnoses & repair requires that the patient be checked in, endure the tests and then, either a procedure is performed or the doctor concludes that the problem is terminal.
Plan to drop your gun off. Concept Arms is not able to perform work while you wait.
All guns must be checked in, evaluated and serviced in a first come, first served basis.
Concept Arms can't compete with the retail we see in big box stores, but we can offer the knowledge that is missing in those impersonal stores. We can offer services that cannot be found anywhere else in our area, and we can carry things that the buyers for those big boxy places don't even think of. Without Concept Arms, those of us who have firearms would be in trouble.
1. Concept Arms has a limited 1-year warranty on work performed by our technicians.
*We advise you not to wait to SHOOT YOUR GUNS to determine if the work is satisfactory.
2. Equipment purchased either at Concept Arms or elsewhere, is subject to manufacture warrantee. Gunsmith re-working due to manufacture failure, will be billed at standard rates.
3. We are no longer able to handle warrantee work on NFA items (such as suppressors) once the form 4 is approved.
We will hold your gun for 30 days after we have performed the work and notified you that it is ready for pickup. Additional fees will apply after that time.
After 90 days, if the gun has not been paid for/picked up we will consider the gun abandoned/forfeited and will take legal steps to recover our fees.
Custom and/or special orders require payment in advance.
We accept Visa, Master Card & Discover - We no longer accept American Express.
