Weatherby Inc. Factory Tour

There are many little pieces that go into the trigger to keep it all together, but once you get the hang of it the assembly takes no time at all. 

Weatherby's high-temperature bluing and blackening system.

Mark V assembler Eric Hansen bead blasts Mark V parts for a matte finish. After getting hand-blasted, the parts will go through another machine operated blaster, then to the high-temperature bluing tanks.

Weatherby guarantees accuracy with its "Range Certified" program.

Here are four experimental revolvers that never made it into production. Roy Weatherby Sr. experimented with these in the early years. These were the only four ever made. 

Upon entering Weatherby headquarters, you are welcomed by a room dedicated to displaying some of the company's greater historical artifacts.
