For the entirety of this nation’s existence, Americans have depended upon firearms to ensure our survival.

When it comes to big guns, American exceptionalism and divine intervention, nothing beats the story of how Ronnie Barrett and company became the world’s foremost supplier of long-range, military-grade small arms.

A new long-distance shooting record of 4.4 miles was set September 13 in western Wyoming by a shooter who requested anonymity. Scott Austin and Shepard Humphries, managers at Nomad Rifleman, near Jackson Hole, Wyo., coordinated the massive undertaking that included a support team at the firing line and multiple spotters downrange to call impacts and document/verify the shot.

Despite its enduring popularity today, the M1911 was an adjustment for U.S. servicemen when it was first introduced.  

From its first shoulder-fired .50 BMG-chambered rifle to switch-barrel Precision Sniper rifle systems, Barrett Firearms continues to make history, this year with its 40th year of business.

Developed at the request of U.S. Special Forces, the new M468 6.8x43 mm Special Purpose Cartridge and Barrett’s Special Purpose Carbine address many of the perceived shortcomings of the 5.56x45 mm cartridge.

Digital Arms has entered into a long-term agreement with Barrett Firearms Manufacturing to develop and market Barrett-branded, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Barrel Firearms has completed its first shipment of MRAD MK22 MOD 0 rifles for the United States Army Precision Sniper Rifle program.

Factory ammunition is better than it has ever been, but it still doesn't beat handloads. See what this Barrett MRAD in .300 Norma Mag. is capable of with custom-crafted handloads made from once-fired brass.
