Armalite is a privately owned firearm manufacturer that has one of the most extensive product lines in the firearm industry and manufacturers both semiautomatic rifles and bolt action rifles in a variety of calibers. Built with the goal of designing and manufacturing innovative and high quality firearms that their customers could depend on, Armalite firearms are used by civilians, law enforcement officials and Federal Agencies and are trusted for their accuracy and reliability at long ranges.
The first successful firearm to make its way into Armalite’s production line was the AR-5. Chambered in the .22 Hornet cartridge, the AR-5 survival rifle was adopted for use by the U.S Air Force as the MA-1 Survival rifle. Another early Armalite rifle was the AR-7, a .22 LR civilian survival rifle. What made the AR-7 so unique was that it could easily be disassembled and its parts could be stored in the buttstock. Another aspect that set the AR-7 apart from other guns was that the buttstock was filled with plastic foam, allowing the rifle to float when needed.
Today, Armalite is most known for the AR-10 and AR-15 rifles. AR-10 assault rifles, such as the AR-10 A2 are famous for their hard hitting power, deadly accuracy, incredible reliability and capability to withstand even the most extreme situations. Like the AR-10, Armalite AR-15 rifles are also able to withstand the test of time. The M-15 A2 is one of the most popular AR-15 rifles from Armalite and is a semiautomatic version of the widely-known M16A2 Service rifle. The AR-15 A2 was created in an attempt to make a rifle that was durable, accurate, reliable and weather resistant. Both the AR-10 A2 and AR-15 A2 rifles are trusted by law enforcement agencies for entry level service training and by hunters from around the world.
While Armalite is most known for specializing in the production of AR-10 and AR-15 rifles, they also produce a wide range of other quality firearms, such as the AR-30M and AR-50.
