Injection Molding Solutions for Firearms & Gunsmithing Industry

Elevate Firearms Manufacturing with Compact, High-Precision Injection Molding

APSX’s small-footprint injection molding machines allow firearms designers, manufacturers, and gunsmiths to produce plastic and, with specialized PIM/MIM processes, certain metal components in-house. Whether you’re prototyping new firearm parts or running short production batches, APSX-PIM delivers accuracy, repeatability, and cost efficiency tailored to your operations.

Advantages of APSX Machines for Firearms Applications

• Rapid Prototyping & Iteration
  Test new trigger designs, grips, or accessory components quickly—reducing R&D cycles.
• Consistent Precision & Quality
  Critical firearm components demand tight tolerances; APSX machines deliver repeatable shot-to-shot accuracy.
• In-House Cost Control
  Shorten lead times and reduce outsourcing by keeping production under your roof—particularly valuable for smaller runs.
• Compact & User-Friendly
  Ideal for gunsmith shops and smaller facilities with limited floor space or staffing.
• Option to Explore PIM & MIM
  With specialized equipment and sintering steps, advanced powder and metal injection molding can be integrated for higher-strength, near-net-shape metal parts.

Potential Applications & Specific Parts

• Plastic Components & Grips
  Mold ergonomic hand grips, magazine bases, or protective accessories with durable thermoplastics.
• Internal Mechanisms & Small Metal Parts (PIM-MIM)
  Triggers, hammers, and sears that benefit from near-net-shape metal injection molding processes.
• Custom Accessories & Prototypes
  Airsoft accessories, or rail covers for niche demands or limited-edition releases. Niche or custom firearm components—like grips or accessory mounts—can be prototyped and tested quickly. Although metal parts often require MIM or machining, certain plastic accessories can be validated using 3D-printed molds before moving to more permanent tooling.
• Jigs & Fixtures
  Specialty plastic tooling for assembly or modification tasks in gunsmithing operations.

(For MIM/PIM parts, remember that a secondary sintering process is typically required after the injection step.)
