// Second of Ten Custom Shop
Built to order. Built to standard.
The Custom Shop does two kinds of work. It builds custom rifles and pistols — our Samurai Series, the Quattro-15 Series and custom LMT® rifles and pistols among them. And it takes on gunsmithing for the parts you already own, from pinning and welding muzzle devices to LMT® MRP™ and MWS barrel conversions.
Every job, a complete rifle or a single barrel, is handled to the same documented standard as the rifles we build — inspected, and recorded before it ships.
// Custom builds
Rifles and pistols you can’t buy off the shelf
We build from OE components — receivers, barrels, triggers and gas systems from the makers we trust — combined into variants that aren’t available in any standard configuration. Each build answers a specific requirement, and in many cases it improves on the overall performance of the OEM version of the firearm it starts from.
// Custom build
Samurai Series
Limited-edition rifles built in small numbers, each named for its edition — the Yasuke Edition among them — and each with its own documented inspection record.
// Custom build
Quattro-15 Series
Built on the Desert Tech Quattro-15 lower, with configurations the factory rifle doesn’t offer — an HM Defense Monobloc® direct-impingement upper, or our QUATTRO-816 short-stroke piston upper.
// Custom build
Custom LMT® rifles and pistols
LMT® MRP™ and MWS rifles and pistols built around barrels and gas systems LMT® doesn’t catalog — a 6mm Max® with a SOLGW barrel and RIFLESPEED Gas Control, or an HM Defense Monobloc® converted for the MRP™.
Who warrants what. The complete firearm is backed by the Second of Ten warranty; each component maker warrants its own part. Warranty information.

Your configuration. A barrel under 16″ on a rifle-configured firearm makes a short-barreled rifle. Since October 9, 2026, ATF no longer enforces NFA approval or registration for short-barreled rifles. That is an enforcement policy following the Jensen and Silencer Shop Foundation v. ATF rulings, not a change to the statute, and it could change. Taking an SBR across state lines still needs ATF approval on Form 5320.20, and state and local laws on short-barreled rifles still apply. The firearm’s configuration is the owner’s responsibility.
