Bullet Keychains, Etc. |
About Us My name is Tim Ford , the primary business operator and bullet smith for our small family business in Jackson, Mississippi. My first priority is to my craft- bullet making, bullet keychains and my imagination. My second priority is to my customers and their satisfaction. Now…It may seem strange that my work would be listed above customer satisfaction. But, without my dedication to the product and their design, my customers would not be satisfied. I try to design pieces, many that are one of a kind, exact replicas of existing name brand bullets, military period pieces, historically significant pieces, or bullets that are of a fantasy nature. By fantasy, I mean that they are real bullets only in that they are products of my imagination. They were never produced, and probably never could be. Each piece is hand built to exacting manufacture’s and SAMMI specifications. Each piece is wheel polished before shipping. Each piece is built to last, hopefully for a lifetime. Each piece is built with American- made products whenever possible. We use name brand components…Winchester, Remington, Speer, Hornady, etc. Wherever possible, I use new cases. Sometimes it is unavoidable to use once-fired cases, as major companies don’t offer all the cases I need for specific bullets. Where I do use once-fired cases, they are meticulously examined and separated before and after cleaning and polishing. Poor examples are discarded. However, sometimes slight ejector marks and very small imperfections may remain. I try to note this possibility for bullets that might be included in this condition. These are used where it is necessary to recreate specific bullet recreation or specialty pieces, where no new cases are available. In any event, the finished product will be a piece of exceptional quality. As to my next priority---My Customers. Without you I can’t do what I love, bullet making. Your satisfaction is a must! I want to know that you are happy with the product you receive. I want your suggestions and comments. I would like to know what items you would like to be made. You are welcome to email me at any time. JUST A FEW PERSONAL NOTES: I have a wonderful family who is very supportive of my work. I spent six years in the Army during the Vietnam era. I am an avid shooter. My preference is a pistol or revolver. I belong to a local shooting range where I shoot once a week. I wish I could do it more. My carry weapon is a highly modified 1911. It is a Caspian frame and slide finished in hard chrome and chambered in .45 ACP, It is an Officer’s Model. |
