Commission

Commission a Tinus Tredoux creation

Private commissions begin at USD 3,995 and are quoted individually once the firearm, style and accessories are known.

One

A private conversation

Tell Tinus about the firearm and the creation you have in mind. Nothing is committed at this stage.

Two

The firearm is studied

He measures it himself where he can. Where he cannot, he sends you his measuring procedure and drawings so that you or your gunsmith can return exact figures.

Three

Agreement and deposit

He sends a written order and agreement setting out the case, the accessories and the price. A deposit of one third begins the work.

Four

One case. Four to five months.

The creation leaves Tinus's hands when it is right. Handover is agreed with you; shipping, where required, is for the client's account.

For clients only

The Tinus Tredoux measuring method

Over many years Tinus worked out his own way of measuring a firearm, so that a case can be built around a gun on the other side of the world and still close on it exactly. It is written down, drawn by his own hand, and it is his. It is not published here.

Once your commission is under way and your deposit is received, Tinus sends you a private copy in your own name, with his guidance alongside it.

Laid in

Accessories to be laid into the case are supplied by the client, so that each bed is cut to the piece itself.
