Welcome to the HEYM workshop.

Aside from a few modern machines, the vast majority of work on HEYM rifles is still performed by hand; in much the same way it has been for over 140-years at HEYM.

Sons still apprentice under their father's tutelage and each faction of the building process is performed by an expert in their respective field of expertise.

Contact Us today to disucss the available options for making a HEYM uniquely yours.
