Guns have always been a passion of mine. I grew up hunting with my
father and he instilled in me an appreciation for fine shoulder arms
at a young age. I thrive on the intricate details that flow gracefully
together into a functional piece of art.
I was very fortunate to discover the trade of gunsmithing
at a young age. I studied at the Piedmont Gunsmithing Association in
Roxboro, NC. After graduation, I went to work for C. Sharp Armory in
Big Timber, MT. Though a high-end gun manufacturer, the production mindset
was not for me.
When I heard that Albright’s was looking for a
new gunsmith, I leapt at the opportunity. I feel privileged to be working
with two master gunsmiths and look forward to my future at Albright’s
Gun Shop.

Steve
Engle, Master Gunsmith, a formally trained gunsmith came to Albright's
Gun Shop to work with Greg Wolfe years ago. He has over 15
years of experience, and grew up working
on guns. Many customers consider guns just a tool but to others they
are family heirlooms with sentimental value. This is one reason Steve
enjoys working with wood and metal using his skills to clean
or restore a customer's gun.
