I've been working with these guys for years. This is my go-to spot for firearm cleaning, maintenance, and FFL transfers. read more

I have used them for years on several different issues. They are solid gold! A.J. took the front sight off and installed a Choate Flash Suppressor. If you nick the crown, you're done. Somebody accused them of being racist. That's absurd. The owner is from Colombia originally, so... read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing - Ruger Mini14 with Choate Flash Suppressor. - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Very professional spot if you need some help with a firearm. I had issues with an old collectible that they were able to almost look brand new. Thank you guys for what you do and the craft! read more

Terrible customer service. Blatantly ignored us. We walked in and two others walked in behind us. They decided to serve the people who came in after us instead. Won't be back. Might be racist read more

I needed to torque in my barrel and flash hider but since this is a custom built AR, I needed to make sure I built everything else correctly. They offered to assemble the rest of my components and test fire it. It took about 3 weeks and I finally got it back and it looks awesome! They included the 3 bullet casings to show that they test fired it and I'm very happy with the results. They are very professional and courteous and I think the gunsmithing rates are fair. It would be nice if they would give me a receipt detailing everything that was done tough. Make sure you bring cash here as their fees for credit AND debit card is pretty high. At the time of my purchase, they did not accept Venmo or Zelle. read more

Awesome shop. So much variety. They have a lot of the one-off stuff you're looking for but only find randomly on visits gun shops you haven't visited before. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing helped our family during a difficult time following the death of a family member who was a firearm enthusiast. A.J. was able to assist us with many items, including ammo and accessories by checking and inspecting them, storing everything for several months, listing things on consignment and eventually selling them. The efforts and services of this business helped us tremendously while managing other aspects of the estate and we are extremely grateful for their kindness and helpful nature. Thank you again A.J. and team. Best, Susan and family. read more

Great work, went in for engraving service was quick and easy. Will be back for future needs!

Best gunsmith i have ever used. I have many weapons and they have always been there when I needed assistance. The only time they said no was to work on a Tavor. :) read more

You can start by improving your customer service and turnaround rate for gunsmithing. The guy at the counter was extremely rude and condescending. I can only imagine for first time gun owners how intimidating that must be for something as simple as a quick fix. It's three weeks that's unacceptable read more

Everything went well. Says were very fair. The location however, is a little difficult to get into and to get out of, but it is well worth the effort. read more

I gave them a tough job. I wanted to have them remove some screws that I thoroughly stripped. They did do the work well, but I think they sent it off to the manufacturer. At any rate it was a good job. The only problem I had was that they were supposed to send me a text when it was finished. I texted them and asked if it was finished, and they said that it was finished come get it. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence, but I'm not sure it was finished the same day I called. They did fix me up for a fair price though. And I was a good job. Trust me, I had fubared the screws for sure. read more

They were able to install 2 different sets of CZ sights that it seemed like CZ nor God himself wanted removed...ever. On top of that amazing staff and the lowest FFL transfer cost I have found in Austin, it's just a great old school feel where they really take care of their customers. Big shout out to Chris!!! read more

Blackjack is kinda tucked away off of Pond Springs Road but don't let that fool you. The store has an extensive selection of new and used firearms and a very good gunsmith to take care of your technical needs. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Recommended. read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing (BG) is a godsend. Recently a fellow gun enthusiast friend of mine passed, leaving a significant number of guns and countless rounds of ammunition to his family. The family called me looking for help. We called BG and within hours AJ (the owner) met us at my friend's residence to discuss the possibility of BG controlling the gun estate sale. By mid-afternoon AJ had taken inventory of all the guns and ammo and transported them to his shop. BG established a vary reasonably priced storage arrangement with the family, along with various sales and consignment options. AJ quickly went to work to determine a market-representative sales price for each gun and develop enticing package deals to include (in many cases) the firearm, optics, holsters, carrying cases and a box or two of ammo. BG's professionalism, experience and quick work took all the stress out of handling this large gun collection and sales are progressing nicely. read more

Good first impression! I needed a repair and saw they had good reviews so I stopped in. They have good staff members, good customer service, and turn around time was quicker than expected. read more

I came in to get my smith and Wesson looked at for a simple repair, and these guys were very helpful and fixed it on the spot. They also have a great selection of guns to buy, so I will definitely be back for my purchase here. Thanks guys! read more

Service is quick and reasonable and he is very knowledgeable. He feels me tuned my hunting rifle and retooled the barrel for my suppressor, excellent job. read more

In at 10AM on A Saturday and 2nd in line. There were 5 or 6 people behind me. Popular place and there are reasons why that is so. Brought my pistol and red dot sight in for installation and zero in. Took all of 15 minutes and the guy working on it came out to me to let me know how it was doing. Price: $60. Time in the store. No longer than 20 minutes. Great work and customer service. ANY work to be done on my firearms will be done at Blackjack! read more

I have been going to Blackjack for decade or more. AJ (owner) and his crew do fast, high quality work. From barrel threading, gun refinishing, to technical gunsmithing work, you can count on Blackjack Gunsmithing. 5 Stars! FRW read more

I saw this gun store off to the side inside to stop by. And you're making a great deal and couldn't be more happier. The sales rep Ethan was fantastic and I am totally happy with the purchase. I recommend you check these folks out if you're in the neighborhood or if you're just visiting that area. They have great service and a pretty cool collection that's just worth checking out at the very least. read more

I used Blackjack gunsmith for an FFL transfer because they have great prices and an awesome staff. They helped me with all my questions over email and phone (I talked to a nice dude over the phone named Nicholas). Additionally, they were able to hold onto my gun for me for a month while I figured out some paperwork so that was very much appreciated. read more

good on supplies. very, very poor on service. not interested in long term relationships with its repeat customers. focused almost soley on sales. i purchased a optics-ready glock for about $ 600-$700 from them. at the time i asked about a laser/light combo they said cost about $100, but was not it stock. said they were ordered. i called back at least a half-dozen times, and got a different story each time: ordered but came in for rifes only; not order for pistols but will order. ordered, and only 4 came in a were sold. supplier now out of stock. i asked them to review amazon and suggest a make and model i would order and they could install. they agreed, but never called back. their website says they will respond to texts. i texted them about whether i could add a surpressor ready barre to my glock which already had a green dot sight on it. no answer.......none. for supplies like ammunition, i may go back because they're close. anything else, i'll be going elsewhere. read more

Brought my Springfield XDM in to have new night sights installed. Discovered this is a great little shop. I got great advice, saved money and got the job done very quickly. This is now my "go to" Gunsmithing shop!! read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing - My new night sights are awesome on my Springfield XDM!! - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Based everything i knew about blackjack and AJ from these yelp reviews and i was not disappointed at all. Took my firearm in during this pandemic, was greeted, told AJ what i wanted to do and that's it. I was shown some of stippling work on a firearm he owns to show what it would look like. Was told 3-4 week wait time and the firearm was finished right in that time window I was told. I am more then satisfied with this stipple job and cannot wait time take this firearm back for a RMR cut, cerakote job and now trigger work once i was shown a gun being worked on. The take up was beautiful and the wall just a crisp feel I've never felt on a firearm before 6/2/2020 Update Decided to leave my wife's Glock for AJ and company to do a girly cerakote job on and boy they did not disappoint her expectations at all. read more

They know what they're doing. Very knowledgeable staff. Best gunsmith in the Austin area.

Awesome FFL/Gunsmith in Austin area! My go to for transfers, consignments, and of course gunsmithing (recent pin and weld job on my 14.5", very clean job!) Staff is very nice and AJ is very knowledgeable, answered all my questions and concerns. Highly recommended! Thank you! read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing - Pin and Weld - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

I had a pistol that was giving me trouble & I didn't know whom to bring it to. Based on Yelp reviews I decided to bring it to Blackjack Gunsmithing for repair. I'm glad I did! Both problems were fixed at an extremely fair price & remarkably within 1 week. The staff was very competent in contacting me & describing to me how the repairs were done. I you've got an issue with one of your firearms take it with confidence to Blackjack. I'm sure you'll be more than satisfied with the results! read more

Took two firearms to Blackjack. Works was done within the quoted timeframe. Very pleased with the work done on the firearms. Reasonably priced. AJ and staff were friendly, competent and timely. Would not hesitate to use again. They also have a nice selection of used firearms. Great experience for sure. read more

Their staff is completely knowledgeable, the owner AJ, I personally think that he can be the best gunsmith in Austin if not Texas. They take the time to explain the process and answered all the questions I had. Totally recommend this place! read more

AJ, the owner, is a legendary gunsmith. Finding a real gunsmith nowadays is difficult. Especially with the talents my friend AJ has. Y'all better come see him and the huge selection of firearms and accessories too!!! read more

I will start at the end. My 30-30 came back stunningly perfect. The movement is smoother and better. The bluing was incredibly smooth and the rifle feels completely solid...even more so than right before I broke it down to its component parts and then delivered it to Blackjack. My review is NOT for the quality of the workmanship. I could put it under glass at a museum it is so beautiful. The purpose for my review is simple. In my opinion, this place is unorganized, sloppy and the customer service is mediocre at best. Now, I am not a serial complainer. I revel in great customer service and I bend over backwards to make sure you know how awesome someone's business is run. That is not the case here. I dropped my gun off to have some rust removed. My lovely bride inadvertently let some water drip onto the leather case in which it was stored. I guess the zipper wasn't completely closed for some water did get in and as there was some obvious surface rust, I suspected some internal components had become rusted as well. So, as the gun was new to me, and I had yet practiced tearing it down and putting it back together, I opted to pay 3 hundo to renovate a gun that is only worth a little over $200.. MY choice. I dropped it off in the last days of October '19 (the 29th to be exact) and was told they were pretty backed up, but that they would have it ready before I leave Austin on December 4th. I called a few days before my departure and told him I'd be by the next day to pick it up. After listening to him apologize profusely (ad nauseum is more like it...), I was told it would be ready in two weeks - on or about the 19th of December. When I called in two weeks (I was going to have them ship it to Arizona), it still wasn't ready, and that it FOR SURE would be ready by the end of the first week in January '20. They 'almost' hit that date, and it was finally ready to pick up one week later on the 10th of January 2020. A 5-week job turned into a 10-week job. They needed approximately 70 days to de-rust and blue a gun. Really... Obviously, it was determined that other jobs were considered more important and I was continually bumped down the fix list. Well, so be it. The inherent cost for doing so is a detailed and prolific review stating the exact dates in an effort to inform my fellow consumers --- that should you utilize this company services, you would be wise to nag Blackjack as often as you can to ensure they be held to their promised timeline. As the saying goes, 'caveat emptor'... read more

Awesome. Very knowledgeable. They came highly recommended from multiple places. They did great service and communicated perfectly

What tremendous service! Outstanding firearms knowledge. They have a great selection of firearms too. Handguns revolvers pistols sporting rifles hunting rifles shotguns, military curios and antiques, relics, assessories such as scopes, red dot, mounts, everything. They have a huge selection of any/every caliber known. And gunsmith services? I've had perfect experiences there. They are superior I do ALL my business here because of my 5+ years of experiences with them. read more

They seem to really know their craft. They hit their price and schedule targets (lead time was longer than expected, but likely due to many returning, satisfied customers). I will definitely go back should the need arise. read more

AJ can do anything from a professional cleaning to brighten your sights to you name it. I would highly recommend this local shop to anyone. They are first rate without the high price! read more

The Good: Blackjack and AJ were highly recommended by a longtime friend who had a great experience here. Though across town for me, I am happy to make the drive for the exceptional service-with-a-smile attitude the staff presents and for the value of work they perform for the price. I'm happy to recommend them and consider them my gunsmith for any work I need on my pistols, ARs, shotguns, and rifles. And if I were buying a gun, I'd start here too. Room for improvement: The man-trap door system at the entrance is a bit quirky, especially if you have your hands full. So enter the store with a free hand. Hopefully these guys will outgrow this space and move somewhere that allows for a regular store entrance that is also secure. Certainly not a negative, just good to know for first time customers. read more

First let me say, this place is totally legit. It is a small shop, but very knowledgeable people. Their selection of used firearms was excellent, and the staff were very professional and friendly! I would highly recommend this Gunsmithing and Firearms Store! read more

So I have had Aj work on most of my guns. Great work. But i recently got a gen 4 glock 22 from him with a conversion barrel and a 9mm mag. The box should have had 3 .40 mags inside of it abd one 9mm mag i got 2 .40 mags and a 9mm mag .he even charged me 20 bucks for the 3rd mag. It even says on the box 3 mags. Called aj on the phone and he said some glocks come with only 2 mags and I said the box says 3 so did it get misplaced?. No this glock 22 only had 2 inside it. So i called glock and debra said for me to get the serial numbers of the gun and the ffl of the seller and they would be happy to replace a missing mag. She also told me that if the box happened to have 2 in it their distributor could have fixed it. She said some dealers sell the 3rd mag. Im not happy he didnt do everything he could to fix it. I would have loved having a quality gunsmith so close to home. read more
