Wilson Arms Company

Wilson Arms Company started in 1954 and shifted to large-volume barrel production in the early 1960s. They've been a steady supplier to the firearms industry ever since—supporting military contracts, law enforcement agencies, and commercial manufacturers worldwide.

The company produces barrels in calibers ranging from .17 to .50, offering customers options across the full spectrum of completion stages:

• •Blank barrels (unfinished)
• •Semi-finished barrels
• •Fully finished and ready-to-install barrels

Wilson Arms operates across four separate buildings with approximately 18,000 square feet of dedicated manufacturing space in Branford, Connecticut. Recent expansions added another 26,000 square feet to handle growing production demands.

The operation runs on modern machine technology combined with a skilled labor force, maintaining a reputation for on-time delivery and quality control that's kept major manufacturers coming back for decades.

Under President Steven Pawl (with 30+ years at the company), Wilson Arms continues focusing on organic growth, acquisitions, and new product development. Pawl is also recognized as an expert in ballistics and holds NRA instructor certifications across multiple disciplines.
