We’re not in that number. Here’s why that matters.

American Market Presence™ counts ammunition sitting in wholesale warehouses, waiting to reach a store. We sell direct, so the measurement was never going to see us — and the same is true of every American-owned brand built the way we are. The number isn't wrong. It just isn't built to see companies like ours.

We’re not in these numbers. That’s the point.

Firehole Arms, our ammunition brand, is American-owned and American-made, and we sell it direct, so it never sits in a distributor's warehouse. Every box you buy from us is American-owned ammunition these numbers will never count.
