 Oly Arms Plans New (Additional) Expansion.

With demand for Oly product growing faster than our ability to keep up with production, Bob Schuetz, President and CEO of Olympic Arms, is planning yet another expansion.

The expansion will mean at least one more new CNC station like the one you see here to the right. This machine will be used to manufacture the barrels and barrel shrouds for the upcoming Whitney Wolverine project, as well as supplement production of barrel extensions and bolts.
Additionally, one building will be enlarged to accommodate the new machine, and another machine shop will see things moved around as well as the removal and relocation of the employee lunch facility.

When it is all said and done, this phase of expansion should allow us to produce the new products we have on-line like the Whitney and the new OA-93PT and PCR-8MAG models, as well as increase our ability to produce our current product line by another 30%.

Olympic Products Reviewed in SWAT.

We have been telling people for years that Olympic Arms barrels will last 40-50-60,000 rounds and more. We have been saying that chrome lining does NOT automatically mean longer barrel life.

Respectable gun-writer and author, and Editor of SWAT magazine attests to what we have always know. His experience shows that 80,000 rounds plus is not unheard of!

03-06-03 The 2003 SHOT Show was a raging success. Although attendance was off quite a bit from previous years, the people that were there were serious buyers, at least for us. Others reported having a poor show. We had a great location, and with more and more distributors catching on to the fact that Olympic Arms produces a better quality product for less money, can deliver on schedule in manageable numbers rather than swamping the market with thousands of guns all at once, we had advertising everywhere! Our product was on display in half a dozen other booths. Sales were up for Olympic Arms almost 20% last year, and we hope to meet to exceed that level of growth again this year.
03-06-03 We introduced 3 new products in our AR-15 style rifle line at this years SHOT Show. Look for more info in the PCR-30, a 30 Carbine caliber model, the OA-93PT, a detachable stock OA-93 carbine, and the new PCR-8Mag rifle chambered in the new Winchester Super Short Magnum cartridges Check out our New Products page for more details!
