ACFA Armory Charges
 
Many simple repairs are covered by your annual Armory Fee of $30.  These may include taping, replacement of screws, springs or even a new tip; unless you are one of those fencers who destroy tips on a regular basis.  Your fee also helps to insure that an armorer is available to check out your weapons during the practices immediately before a tournament.
 
Please do not rely on the armorer to handle simple things that you can do yourself unless he is not busy.  Take the time to learn how to service your own weapons.  Will Willis is willing to help you learn.  Ask him to teach you.
 
These are estimated charges only.  All prices are subject to change by the Armorer doing the work.
