| I tried to get some answers to my questions at the St. Charles Gun Show but you guys were busy. I wanted to know what makes your product better than the other top AR-15 makers and how did your company get its start? Thanks. Im asking this becuase I am very interested in purchasing a 14.5 M4 carbine. Thanks |

We started it as a hobby; my dad was taking me to shows when I was 12 or 13 years old. After we started carrying other brands, we saw a shortage of features in the market. We had the means and the know how and started coming up with builds and configurations that stood out from other vendors. We also set out this form at gun shows for people to look at: Questions to ask when purchasing an AR15 What type of warranty does the weapon have? CMMG weapons feature a lifetime warranty.
