Nighthawk Custom is a firearms manufacturer where each pistol is built from start to finish by a single gunsmith, following the "ONE GUN, ONE GUNSMITH" philosophy. The builder test fires each pistol to ensure it exceeds both the Nighthawk Standard and his own, then stamps his initials under the grip panel, showing the highest level of ownership, pride, and commitment. Visitors can arrange a first-class tour of the complete manufacturing facility. The tour showcases the operation from raw steel to the completed, custom-finished, test-fired product ready to ship. The emphasis on quality is evident in every area and is ingrained in every craftsman. The facility is described as a place where pieces of art are made, with a great history and a wonderful story of faith, pride in work, and a quality product. Employees are consistently noted as very nice, welcoming, friendly, professional, and awesome, happily answering questions. The tour experience is fabulous and exceeds expectations, detailing the building process and company history. The quality of their firearms, including Cooper rifles, is highlighted as exquisite and amazing, with exquisite wood to metal fit and accuracy, meeting a very high standard.
Great experience and our guide was excellent. I enjoyed learning how each gun was made. Bible verses throughout the shop. We will be back.
