Welcome to Blueprinted Firearms! I founded this company with a simple goal in mind: to help shooters get the most out of their equipment and budget. After more than 15 years of hunting, reloading, and competing in multiple shooting disciplines, I know firsthand how easy it is to overspend on equipment in the hopes of gaining an edge. My mission is to apply the lessons I've learned to help you build the rifle you want and equip you with what you truly need. Every rifle we build is crafted with care and precision, with the goal of bringing you joy, X's, and Impacts.

Thank you for considering Blueprinted Firearms for your shooting needs. We look forward to working with you and helping you hit what you aim for.

Best regards,
Drew

A little about me:

I didn't grow up around hunting, firearms, or gunsmithing. My family was in the auto parts business, but I was exposed to machining at an early age when I used to watch engines being built in our machine shop. The precision and machinery always intrigued me. Fast forward several years, I bought my first rifle, a .308 Win Remington 700, and started tinkering with it. I became obsessed with making it shoot one-hole groups. Despite having limited resources at the time I got to work on my Hornady Classic reloading press and ultimately was able to achieve my goal. This experience marked the beginning of my journey.

In the following years, I shot in my first F-Class match but focused on USPSA and 3-Gun competitions. In 2011, I joined the Marine Corps, and in 2014, I was fortunate enough to shoot with the Marine Corps Shooting Team in the Australian Army Skills at Arms Meet in Puckapunyal, Australia. After my time in the Marine Corps, I moved back to my home state of North Carolina, got married to my beautiful wife, started a family, and began pursuing my dream of building my own firearms.

By 2020, I started building and competing with my own rifles primarily in the Precision Rifle Series and soon had been asked enough times to build rifles or chamber barrels that I got my FFL and opened my shop. Since that time I have been continuously learning and most recently completed Gordy Gritters “Extreme Accuracy Institute” Precision Rifle Building Class.

I look forward to applying everything I have learned to your next build or fixing that rifle that just wont shoot. If you're interested please give me a call. I take the time to understand what you want and how you intend to use the rifle, whether it's your first build or you already have your cartridge specs or custom reamer in hand.
