About Us

THE CRAFTING OF A SUPERIOR GUNSMITH DEPARTMENT

America’s Gunsmith Shop was founded in 1979 in Wilmot, WI. During the early years, it was a one-man operation housed in a 200-square-foot shop. By the late 80’s, the shop expanded and staff size grew, along with a host of professional services and accessories. America’s Gunsmith Shop has become known for its quality work and reasonable prices. Today, the Shop employs over a dozen of craftsmen that repair thousands of firearms every year. Each firearm is treated as custom work as the team utilizes their skills and knowledge using only modern machines and the finest materials to complete each project. The Gunsmiths have even adopted their own slogan, quality, integrity & expertise. "We will treat your firearm as if it was ours, and we will guarantee it."

ROY CHRISTENSEN

Roy attributes his Midwest values and work ethic to being raised as a Wisconsin farm kid. Growing up on a farm meant hard work, but with hard work came rewards. More rewards than a young man could realize at the time. After high school he took a job working in the maintenance department at Gander Mtn. That grew into an apprenticeship in the Gunsmith Department. Now, some thirty plus years later he owns his own retail gun store and full-service Gunsmith Shop.

Roy enjoys spending time outdoors with his family and friends. The Wisconsin whitetail season, ice fishing, kayaking, soft water fishing and turkey hunting are just a few of the annual highlights. A lawn chair and a warm fire are among the favorites.As a business owner, he draws on his life experiences to deliver the best possible service to our customers.

“Our mission is simple: We’re here to help people,” Christensen said. “If us helping people means they are able to better enjoy the outdoors or are able to better protect their families, than we’ve done our job.”
