Our Story

From humble beginnings to trusted firearms authority

Founded in 2005, STEEL CREST GUNS began as a small family-operated business with a passion for firearms and a commitment to serving the shooting community. What started as a modest operation has grown into a respected firearms dealer with locations in both the United States and Canada.

Our journey began when our founder, John McCullough, recognized a need for a firearms retailer that prioritized education, safety, and customer service above all else. With over 20 years of experience in the firearms industry and as a certified instructor, John established STEEL CREST GUNS on the principles of integrity, expertise, and community responsibility.

Today, we serve thousands of customers across North America and ship worldwide, but we’ve never lost sight of our core values. Every team member at STEEL CREST GUNS is committed to providing the same level of personalized service that we offered on day one.
