The history of Montana Custom Guns, LLC began with Bob James over 55 years ago.  On May 1st, 2009, Bob James sold the company with great faith and admiration to Mr. Kelly Clairmont.  Kelly is a native of Polson, Montana.  He has worked side by side with Bob for the past 5 years and has, the last year, been attending shoot events  with Bob.  Kelly is very artistic and very maticulous about each and every gun that he touches.  He has a natural knack for gun building, and enjoys every minute of it.  He enjoys creating with his hands and allowing his artistic talent radiate through his finished product.

Kelly can and does in some cases, perform most of the services that Montana Custom Guns offers.  His main position includes carving custom stocks and forearms from a client selected exotic wood block and then fitting it to the custom dimensions provided by the client. 

Kelly ClairmontKelly was born and raised here in Big Sky country.  He is married and he and his wife have 5 children.  They are very active in their childrens activities whether it be in or out of school.  He and his wife enjoy camping, spending the day on Flathead Lake and spending time with their children, family and friends.  Kelly is an avid hunter includiing hunting for Elk, Moose, and Buffalo.  He has been raised around firearms and is now thrilled with the fact that he is the owner of a gun shop that produces such beautiful products!  Kelly began working for Montana Long Guns, Inc in 2004 and has never thought of changing his career path and so he will continue his dream by becoming the owner of what he enjoys so much. 

Although ownership has been changed from Robert to Kelly, the craftsmanship that is involved in the custom stock making, checkering, finishing, recoil systems, restorations, precision gunsmithing, and point of impact gunfittings, will never be deterred.

The products of Montana Custom Guns will continue to be the best in the Nation!  These two talented men will continue to amaze you with their custom gun stock building abilities.
