Tupelo Custom Weaponry

Not sure where to post this, but, I stopped at Tupelo Custom Weaponry on the way home from BeauBeaux's. I bought a box of .223 from him and he posted a MSGO "business card" on his counter.

Is good shop, he does excellent work.

He was busy, so I assume he does. I talked to him for a minute, but like I said he was busy! I asked him about some AR stuff! Might check into him putting some adjustable sights on a 1911 for me.

The more we get out the better. Will give everyone that wants them some at the NE Eat and Greet in March. MSRedneck sent me some more as I only had 3 left.

Way to go JBPMidas, busy place like that is bound to add to our membership.

Good to know. I have never heard of them. What type of custom work do they do? I love supporting an in-state business.

I know he does Glocks and AR's! He was working on a Glock when I got there and he had a bunch of AR parts and such. His card says he specializes in AR/1911/Glock and he is a DuraCoat certified installer.

My Boss's husband is a trainer for Glock and he's real good buddies with the guy that owns TCW. I've heard NOTHING but great stuff about him.

I priced an undercut and frontstrap checkering there and he said he would do it for a little more than the SA custom shop. his work looked good from what is saw and I have never heard anything bad about the shop.

Has someone had any work from him?

Thanks for dropping off the card!! Your support of this board is appreciated!!

Your MSGO Staff!

That is one thing that I had hope this site was going to bring. Finding gun dealers and products here in Mississippi.

He does charge a bit much for FFL transfers...thats the only negative I can think of

More than $25?

He does good work and stays very busy. Some other work I know that he has done
1. Custom work on 870 Shotguns tacti cool stuff.
2. He put a new reciever on a FAL for me that some Wolf ammo blew up (Wolf paid for it to be repaired)
3. I've seen him tune some bolt guns
4. He dura coated some knives for my son prior to going to Iraq, and did it the Marine digital camo.
5. I'm going to see about him changing a barrel on revolver for me.
6. Some general gun smithing stuff
7. Anything you want done to an AR he can do it.
8. I've seen and shot a High Power he worked on and it was SWEET

He is very meticulis, and an artist at what he does. He stays back logged so be patient with him. He has his opinions on what works and what doesn't. So I listen to what he has to say. I don't always follow his advice, but I do listen. He does a lot of Law Enforcement stuff. He is a very competitive shooter, and quite good too. He likes a good cigar can't remember the brand off hand though. He helped me get some good stuff for my son to take to Iraq. One thing was a lubricant that his whole unit ended up useing to lube all their weapons. Anything else about him just ask, or better yet go see him. Tell him Ken sent you.

Gee I Wonder who this could be!

Mingo, is a great guy. He has done allot of work for me, and all has been flawless. If it is tactical, he does a good job, also like his coatings.. D-451
