mere.dev / firearms components
Precision machined weapons components designed and manufactured in the USA. Tight tolerances, field-tested materials, and no shortcuts on quality. Self-reliance starts with equipment that works when it has to.

The firearms market is full of parts designed to hit a price point. Mine aren't. Every component I produce is specified for the application, machined to print, and tested before it ships.
8.6 BLK Components
Parts designed specifically for 8.6 Blackout — a cartridge with genuine external ballistics advantages that most of the market hasn't caught up to yet. Designed around the round's actual pressure curve and projectile geometry.
Precision Machined Parts
CNC machined from bar stock, not MIM cast. Tolerances that matter for function, not just aesthetics. I machine to specification and measure to verify — not to SAAMI minimums that leave performance on the table.
Custom Work
If you have a design that needs to go from print to part, I can help. Small-batch custom components for builders, gunsmiths, and manufacturers who need a reliable machining partner.
Ballistics Tools
I also build purpose-built ballistics software. The 8.6 BLK Ballistics Calculator includes spin energy modeling — the rotational kinetic energy contribution to terminal performance that standard solvers ignore entirely. Built in Rust. Runs in the browser.
Because the difference between good data and guessing matters at distance.
