Meriden Gun Shop — Local services in Topeka

I don’t know how to tell everyone how good Blake is. I commissioned him to restore my grandfather’s Browning A5. This is one of the guns that I learned how to shot with as a child with my grandfather, and it broke my heart to see it’s condition dwindle over the last 30 years. So when he decided to take on the job I was very excited. I was hoping it would just come back as a shoot able quality gun. I wish I could add pictures of what he had to deal with but went he started to disassemble this gun and realized that every single piece was original down to each numbered screw he decided this had to be done to the highest possible quality. This must be what he strives for because the gun I got back from him is basically a museum piece. Definitely a 1 of 1. There probably isn’t one of these guns of this age left in this world in this quality. I am so happy with his work, and I would recommend him from coast to coast to do the highest quality restoration of a gun. So folks please show him what you have and give him the proper time and you will receive a piece you won’t be...

ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT WEAPONS TRAINER! Took a two hour pistol course, incredibly individualized, tailored to my needs. This guy can do basic fundamental training for newer shooters. He can also dial the intensity up to 11 and challenge you in ways that simply cannot be done on a flat range. Did I say individualized, the weapons training classes are a size of 1, you! And will move at whatever speed you need, slower, fast, in-between, no problem. Great investment, and local. Take a class from him!

He taught my concealed carry class, very educational, balancing information for a wide range of experienced shooters, never dull or redundant.

Does excellent custom gun work. Put together two ARs for me and both performed flawlessly. Barrel threading on at least 3 rifles and a 22 pistol as well, 100% quality.

Lastly, he's an outstanding, kind hearted, Jesus-loving man! He tells you straight, doesn't waste time, yet makes each person feel welcomed and...

I came across Blake and Meriden Gun Shop while searching for gunsmiths in Northeast Kansas. I initially visited the shop to inquire about an NFA transfer. Blake was very knowledgeable, was excellent at explaining the process, and overall made the the experience smooth and painless.

After further conversations with Blake, and viewing the work he has performed on various firearms in his shop, I determined that I would go to Blake for any gunsmithing work I require. All the work I have had Blake do has been exemplary and he has been able to professionally explain all the work he has done. I will be recommending Meriden Gun Shop to everyone who is looking for a professional gunsmith and will continue to...
