Freedom Arms


Yesterday we had the privilege of visiting Freedom Arms which is a Freedom, Wyoming-based firearm manufacturing company, known for producing powerful single-action revolvers.  It is just down the road from where we are staying and we felt so fortunate to be able to visit.

The door was locked for security purposes when we arrived so we rang the buzzer and were admitted by Linda who was very welcoming and also, as it turned out, very knowledgeable about firearms.

First thing that I noticed were all the trophies covering the walls.  I felt like I was in the wilds!
The lobby was a small room with a TV where we watched a video (click here to go to the You Tube video) about the company and the production of their firearms.  Each firearm that they manufacture is done completely by hand and takes seven months to complete.  When they are finished they are not only beautiful but unbelievably accurate!

Then it was “hands on”!  Kirby was in heaven as he checked out the .500 caliber, the .260 Single Shot and the large .454 magnum.  Me?  Well, I held a couple but I prefer my camera!
