New Gun Business Project 51 Launches in Marshalltown | Local News, Sports, Employment

Reading Time: < 1 minute

A new firearms business, Project 51, has recently opened its doors in Marshalltown, offering sales, transfers, and repairs of firearms. Owner Jake Kessler, a law enforcement officer and military veteran, has a deep-rooted passion for firearms that he wanted to share with the community.

With a background in shooting sports from a young age, Kessler’s experience with firearms has only grown over the years through his military and law enforcement careers. As a firearms instructor for the police department and a technical sergeant in the Iowa Air Guard, Kessler brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to Project 51.

The business name, Project 51, holds personal significance for Kessler, as it was his badge number after becoming a sergeant. He aims to tie in his law enforcement background with the services offered at Project 51.

Since opening, Kessler has seen a positive response from the community, with customers appreciating a local business that goes beyond just selling firearms. Project 51 also offers transfers and repairs for handguns, revolvers, shotguns, and rifles.

Looking ahead, Kessler anticipates a surge in business, especially with the upcoming election year, which typically sees an increase in gun sales. While he can order almost any firearm for customers, there are limitations on certain items that require special permits.

In the future, Kessler hopes to expand Project 51 into a brick-and-mortar store with inventory on hand, including ammunition. He envisions incorporating a gun range and offering firearms instruction once the business grows.

For those interested in learning more about Project 51 or utilizing their services, Kessler can be reached via phone, Facebook, or email. With his dedication to providing quality service and expertise in firearms, Project 51 is poised to become a valuable resource for gun enthusiasts in the Marshalltown area.
