What Steel is.

Steel is the firearms culture of Oklahoma - gunsmiths, pistolsmiths, Cerakote artists, AR and precision-rifle builders, holster makers, range owners, and the instructors building competence.

The discipline is older than the state and rooted in the same soil. The tools have improved; the temperament has not changed.
