About
Tom Ryder is SPR Industries.
He is passionate about precision in everything. Whether building your custom firearm from the ground up, making adjustments to your personal rifle to fit your lifestyle, or doing prototype machine work.
In high school, he took a machine shop class, which put him on the path to becoming a machinist. After spending five years doing machine work in the aerospace industry, he joined the Marine Corps doing two tours in Iraq.
After returning home, Tom started back in machine work and began apprenticing for a local gunsmith. His years of machine experience was a natural transition to working on firearms. After several years apprenticing, he began taking on his own work, leading running his own 07 FFL just north of Seattle.
He is not just interested in building, updating, or fixing your firearm. He is interested in getting to know each client and their specific firearm needs. This understanding allows him to make the best suggestions for each individual case. No person is alike, and Tom will always spend his time getting to know you before building or customizing your firearm. When he works, he does it with precision and expertise, creating something you are sure to be happy to own.
