Hey, guys. I am going to harness your creative energy. For multiple reasons my Dad and brothers are starting gunsmithing classes to become Gunsmiths. We are looking for a name to call the gunsmithing shop and register stuff under.

We are talking about doing gun smithing, custom knife work, knife sharpening and repairs, ammo and reloading, conceal and carry training, hunters education certification, personal defense courses, retail shop and accessories.

So those are some things to think about. We would like a unique name, as opposed to just a plain name.

One name in the running is Lock, Stock, and Barrel Gun Repairs.

Gun Works, Gunsmithing, Weapons Works, and other various endings may be applied.

Make me proud, guys. :D

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Works in progress:

Bullets (or Barrels), Blades, & Bucks (hunting ;)).

I know, it's lame. But I should be the first person to post here, being I probably know more about all this stuff than anyone else on the forum...:P

Anyhoo, there's a suggestion for now. :P
God bless,

Bear Arms (Dad's suggestion, as in "The right to bare arms..."), for the hunting section, your motto could be "get the best bang for your buck"! Cold steel Gunsmith and knives, I don't know what else.

Awesome, guys, keep 'em coming. I'll hand these off to the guys and let them turn these over and see if they want one or if they help turn the creative juices over.

Two accuracy-related names:
Bullseye
On Target

Plus there's always your last name. E_____ Gunsmithing. It's conventional, but you have a last name that flows well.

'Enter At Your Peril.' ;)

Or 'Death Awaits'.

*Chuckles* I'm not into guns, Airi. My brother is so when I see him at weekend I'll see if has any more sensible ones like mine. *Innocent Face Here*

That is awesome!
Something to do with the direction it runs, like "East and West Gunsmithing."
Second Amendment allusions would be good, but the actual phrase doesn't have much punch. I liked Daniel's idea though; very original.
"I Claim Shotgun"
"Tripped Trigger"

Title chosen for many reasons.
