About Us

Northwest Arkansas is home to Nighthawk Custom™. Our shop hosts some of the finest 1911 master craftsmen in the industry today. We are fortunate to have over 50 years of combined experience building the very finest custom 1911s. Our work is proudly carried and used by professionals all over the world today. We continually strive to raise the bar on what our customers can expect in quality and workmanship. We never settle for second best.

We would like to start off by showing you the people that make it all happen and the process used to build your gun. We believe that no company is any better than its employees, and we know we have the best. They are what make the difference in our firearms. Each one of our employees takes a level of pride in his craft that is seldom seen in a fast paced world where craftsmanship is set aside in order to speed up processes to make more profit. Although we would like to make more money, it is not the central focus for our business. We will never sacrifice quality and send out second rate products in order to meet production goals and profit forecasts. We value our sense of pride in craftsmanship much more than that. That is our promise to our customers. You will always get the best of our efforts on anything you purchase from us.

As you can see below, we still know how to work with steel and transform it into a thing of beauty. We start out with our own forged frames, and the very best components, and fit each one to the individual gun we are building. Just take a look and see for yourself. We’ll show you a small glimpse of what you can expect when you buy one of the finest firearms you will ever own.
