What a great find! After all of the stories and I reviews I've heard about other gunsmiths in town, I was hoping to have a good experience here trying a new place. Well, Blackjack Gunsmithing did not disappoint. In fact, they exceeded expectations with their friendly and honest service and very quick turnaround. Will definitely be using them again! read more

Was calling around looking for someone to clean a couple shotguns. Left a message and got a call back pretty quick. AJ did great work, and fast turnaround.Then they texted and after some time went by called me when it was done. Made me feel like I was an important customer! read more

Working on having my version of a 1903 Griffin and Howe Sporter built. Just picked up the stock and action. Bolt modification is perfect and could not be happier with the new ebony tip on the stock. Added a new butt pad and grip cap. All work is spot-on and price was very fair. Highly recommended shop! read more

I had 2 barrels threaded and one rifle glass bedded by this shop and couldn't be happier with the service, price and turnaround time on them. I will keep comming back to blackjack. read more

Brought in a TO35 pistol, for a friend, to have it put back together since it was dismantled and may even have some parts missing. They assembled it and even showed us how it operated. It was really neat to learn that this is the pistol that is used in Olympic competition. Very friendly people and reasonable prices. We will use them again if needed. read more

AJ does awesome work. He has worked on two guns for me now and they both work fantastic. He does some killer trigger work. Thanks AJ I'll be back! read more

As I expected from other reviews. AJ did my work promptly and for a fair price. Well worth the 25 mile drive. I won't go anywhere else from now on. read more

AJ really knows his stuff! I have brought many things to him and have always been super happy.. They turn stuff around very quickly and the prices are more than fair.. I'm an amateur gunsmith and have messed up a few projects that AJ was able to fix. They can do almost anything with a firearm. I recommend them highly! read more

Helpful,knowledgeable,polite and great prices what else do you need in a good gunsmith or any business. Thanks A.J read more

Blackjack Gunsmithing - what can i say. The name says it all - Blackjack! I ran into them at the Cedar Park Gun Show this summer; visited them at their business and haven't looked back. Excellent work. Excellent staff. Affordable. Deliver when they say. Aj is a professional; knows guns. Period. So far - 5 pistols deep-cleaned, repaired where needed, and test fired. AR-15 - hand-guard change, cleaned, adjusted, and test fired. Just awesome work. Period. Highly recommended. Won't go anywhere else now. read more

I walk in and was immediately greeted with a smile. I had an issue with my new sling adapter and not being able pull my bolt to the rear on my AR 15. One of the gentlemen in the back literally stopped what he was doing to take a look at it. I was in and out in less than 7 mins and on top of that she told me she wasn't charging me. Now that's service! I will definitely recommend this place to others and bring my guns back here if I have any other problems. read more

I have only done transfers with them so far, but while I was in there I noted some of the weapons they had for sale to price check when I got home and found they were quite reasonable. Combine that with their excellent customer service, and I think I'll be coming back for anything else I need. Cash only, but that's a minor inconvenience. read more

Brought my Remington 700P to AJ to have the trigger polished, the barrel cut and threaded. Also had him glass bed it, lap the bolt and change the bolt handle. Was promised it in 2 weeks. No problem, I was getting ready to travel to the east coast during that time. 3 days later get a text from AJ, the gun was ready. Finally got back from vacation and picked the gun up just as the hurricane hit Texas. Had to wait a few days to get out and shoot it. AJ took a gun that was at best a 1.5 MOA gun and turned it into one that shoots 0.5 MOA. Saw AJ and crew at the gun show in Round Rock and told him how pleased I was with the gun. I recommend him to everyone I talk to that mentions needing some work done on a gun. I will be back next time I have a project. read more

Great customer service! The staff is so nice and they are very knowledgeable about firearms. Would highly recommend this place to anyone needing a firearm repair or wanting purchase one. They have a nice selection of all types! read more

This is hands down the best gunsmith in Texas. I tried 5 other gunsmiths in the Houston and Austin area and no one was able to fix my rifle for a reasonable price. I took it to AJ, and they fixed it in a week for $75. I will never go anywhere else. Blackjack Gunsmithing is where it is at. Great service, friendly, and affordable. Thank you! read more

After having tried all of the usual gunsmiths in Austin, I found AJ and have used him exclusively for the last number of year. He has done flawless work on a variety of both collectible guns from the 60s/70s and modern ones. I can't recommend him high enough. read more

Been going to AJ for a couple of years now and he has always done outstanding work... and I am picky to say the least.

Overall a *great* little shop with friendly, helpful staff. Dropped off a handgun for a basic sight swap and got it back faster than they quoted when I dropped it off. Downside was the front sight wasn't mechanically zeroed when I initially got my handgun back. Had them take it back to recenter the sight and it came back *still* not centered. Gave it back one more time and **still** wasn't centered. Not like I had a ruler out; it was obvious to the naked eye. (Plus, I shouldn't have to ask for sights to be zeroed in the first place!) Got home and saw the rear sight was off too. Frustrating. To top it all off there's scoring on both sides of my brand new (expensive) sights from the tools they used to install/adjust them. Hard to see going back here, even though it's two minutes from my place, but we'll see. I'm sure my experience was rare. read more

Every other shop I called told me 3 weeks to simply swap out muzzle devices, they did 3 flash hiders for me while I waited (about 15 min). Will be back for other services. read more

AJ is the man! So is his staff, (and one talented young lady), which knows more about firearms than I ever will, at 58. Everything I bring in, AJ always says "I can fix it, just bring it in.) Then in 1-3 days later I get a text from him that reads "Your guns are ready." Amazing! a couple of times they did jobs while I waited, unlike other shops I've had dealings with, but I'm not going to go into the bad experiences (at other shops) here, as much as I want to. AJ gets 10 stars! read more

I had A.J at Blackjack thread three barrels for me for my new suppressors. I had them back in less than one week and the work was of the highest quality. I came back the following week to have him build me a custom AR-10 as I couldn't find on ego match my needs. I picked it up two weeks later and it is a tac driver. great, friendly service at a reasonable price by a very highly skilled gunsmith. read more

Best in town! Other gunsmiths around here will keep your gun for a month at time for simple jobs. I was shocked when my 1911 was ready for pickup a couple of days after I dropped it off with a broken extractor. In a nutshell, AJ does great work, he does it quickly, and at a great price. read more

Huge thumbs up. AJ is professional, knowledgeable, and very fair on pricing. I will only use him going forward. I would trust him with any firearm. Note his hours, though, so you show up when his shop is open. read more

I took in a War Sport upper that needed the muzzle brake pinned and welded. AJ did a killer job and knows not to make it so clean that it couldn't be inspected to verify that it was legal since the barrel was a 14.7. He cleaned it up just enough to make it look nice but to where you could still see the weld. I highly recommend Blackjack for this service and I'll be taking in another upper soon for the same service! read more

I also saw the reviews on Yelp and Google... and somewhat skeptical that he has "all 5's." I have to say my experiences with AJ have been exceptional. He does excellent work, charges reasonable prices with fast turnaround. I've had sight work, trigger and other work performed, sold a gun to him and used his FFL to have 2 guns shipped for me to pick up. Best of all he's got a great attitude, and truly enjoys seeing you, unlike some others in town.... He's my go-to guy now. read more

Best gunsmith experience I've ever had. I've used other local outfits, and I recommend these guys over anyone else in Austin. Professional, courteous, and fast. read more

Read good reviews and went down to have a gun that everyone said there was no part available for, expected to drop it off and pick it up at a later date...it was fixed on the spot! Thank you!!! read more

Great gunsmith! Fast turn around and great price! Nice knowledgable guys here. Recomened

Every weapon that I own as been touched by AJ and his team. Blackjack Gunsmithing is the best in town, great quality, excellent turn around and beyond professional service. When life liberty and integrity matter TRUST AJ and his team! read more

Terrible customer service! I bought my wife a Benelli 20 Gauge for her birthday and took the gun in to have the stock cut down for her. This was on August 31st and I was told it would take 10 days to two weeks. We were leaving for a hunting trip on the 16th so I called Monday and asked when the gun would be ready. I was told by AJ it would be ready Wednesday afternoon and I could pick it up Thursday. I walked in Thursday and they had not even started on the gun. Since they had no sense of urgency, I took my gun and found another shop to do the work. Do not believe the time frame they give you. I live in the neighborhood and will never return to Blackjack Gunsmithing. read more

My Remington 700, needed some trigger work. After reading the reviews on Yelp, I decided to stop by and talk with AJ. We discussed some options, no hard sell on anything. AJ was very informative on the all possibilities. Left my rifle for him to work on the trigger. Got a call the very next day, picked the rifle up that evening, rifle shoots great. Its everything the AJ and myself discussed. Very reasonable pricing. will definitely go to Blackjack Gunsmithing for all future gunsmithing needs. read more

They fixed two of my shotguns and refinished one. I had a trigger reset issue shortly afterwards and took it back in. It was a completely different issue from before and they fix it for free. God people to deal with. read more
