Meet The Team

Picture
Gibbs Custom Gunsmithing, LLC is dedicated to offering the highest quality craftsmanship and most innovative design with personal service.  You'll receive knowledgeable guidance, personal attention and expert craftsmanship. Every detail is attended, in everything we do.  

Founded in 2015, we're already trailblazing in our field. We're the first to develop a process to use heat-cured H Series Cerakote on scopes and optics. Wildly popular, we fill orders from all over the country and are at over 850 scopes and counting. Next innovation:in collaboration with Master Engraver Howard Simon, we've found a way to engrave Glocks. Yep, no more aftermarket slides if you want your Glock engraved!

From simple but thorough 23 point cleanings to custom solutions for unique needs, Gibbs Custom Gunsmithing gives each gun owner our full attention--whether you are across the street or across the country. Experience the difference!

Since our space is limited, we carefully choose what we keep in stock to only offer the best values—Drago Gear, Sticky Holsters, and Hoppes cleaning products for example. We carry a full range of pistol, rifle & shotgun ammunition—most calibers/gauges are in stock, and we keep target, personal defense and hunting rounds on hand. As gunsmiths, we're a little fussy about our ammo and we'll never sell anything that won't perform well or will damage your gun. You'll also find magazines, slings, AR accessories & more.
Extras

Our goal is to serve the whole shooter.  Other things you'll find here:

  • ​Cash buyer for broken guns
  • Antique guns  & curios (sometimes!)
  • Free FOID application assistance
  • Fresh cup o' joe and a friendly face 
  • FFL Transfers--In and Out

Jeffrey Gibbs
Gunsmith Jeffrey Gibbs, a lifelong craftsman and sportsman, is certified by the American Gunsmithing Institute in Pistolsmithing, .22 Rimfire Rifles, Rifles, and Basic Gunsmithing. He began his 'smithing career in 1985 at The Gunnery in Justice, IL, later moving to Targetmasters in Orland Park, IL.  Joining the Local 434 Carpenters in 1994, for many years his 'smithing activities were only for personal use. Responding to increasing requests from friends and fellow sportsmen, he refreshed his skills with formal training and Gibbs Custom Gunsmithing was born.

An avid hunter and trapshooter, Jeffrey also served as the ATA Director for Downers Grove Sportsman's Club for three years and is a current member of the Wilmington Masonic Lodge, the American Gunsmithing Association and of course, the NRA, ISRA, NSSF and NAGR.  A resident of Manhattan, IL since 2004, he is delighted to join the local business community, and to serve his friends and neighbors responsibly.
