The history of Montana Custom Guns, LLC began with Bob James over 55 years ago.  On May
1st, 2009, Bob James sold the company with great faith and admiration to Mr. Kelly Clairmont.  
Kelly and his wife, Carla are natives of Polson, Montana.  He has worked side by side with Bob
for the past 6 years and continues to learn from Bob's extensive years of knowledge.  Kelly has
been attending shooting events with Bob for the past two years and has enjoyed meeting our
valued clients and everyone attending.  Kelly is very artistic and very maticulous about each and
every gun stock that he touches.  He has a natural knack for gun stock building, and enjoys every
minute of it.  He enjoys creating with his hands and allowing his artistic talent to radiate through
his finished product.
Kelly is performing all of the services that Montana Custom Guns offers right now as the
economy has slowed down but Bob will be back on with us as soon as the economy picks back up!
Kelly Clairmont
Kelly was born and raised here in the Big Sky country.  He is married and he and his wife have 5
children.  They are very active in their childrens' activities whether it be in or out of school.  He
and his wife enjoy camping, spending the day on Flathead Lake and spending time with their
children, family and friends.  Kelly is an avid hunter including hunting for Elk, Moose, and
Buffalo.  He is a very talented sketch artist and allows clients and staff to enjoy his art which
hangs in the main office. He has been raised around firearms and is now thrilled with the fact that
he is the owner of a gun shop that produces such beautiful products!  Kelly began working for
Montana Long Guns, Inc in 2004 and has never thought of changing his career path and so he will
continue his dream by owning and managing Montana Custom Guns!  He looks forward to seeing
all of you and visiting with you!
Ownership has been changed for over 1 year now, and although the economy has slowed, the
craftsmanship that is involved in the custom stock making, checkering, finishing, recoil systems,
restorations, precision gunsmithing, and point of impact gunfittings, has not been deterred.
The products of Montana Custom Guns will continue to be the best in the Nation!
