Our Story
Born To Serve. Passion For Sport.
Our team of American military veterans was never built for the board room. We belong on the range. In the hunt. Where the action is.
The Power of Precision
We know what’s at stake. As accomplished long-range precision rifle shooters ourselves, we know there are no substitutes for accuracy, consistency, and durability. Which is why we have made it our collective calling to manufacture, sell and hunt with only the highest-quality rifles, components and ammunition available in the market today.
Our Committment To You
Our mission is to provide hunters and shooters with the best the industry can offer — even if it means carrying our competitors’ products. In fact, we invest heavily in stocking unmatched inventory in-house, so that we can warehouse, ship and provide everything you need…when you need it…at a price point you can afford.
Meet The Founders
I guess you could say we never fit “the industry standard.” Which is why founders John Hakes and Chad Drayer set out to set a new standard. It’s not corporate. It’s not typical. It might not even be pretty. But it’s who we are. Authentically and unapologetically.
Passion Meets Precision
Hakes and Drayer had practically impossible standards to meet. So they created the only company that could live up to them…and exceed them.
Every day at The Battalion is another in the pursuit of perfection. A better way. Innovative approaches. The next big thing.
We are the target market. The customer demanding more.
So when you go looking for a premier provider of precision rifles and components, one maintaining the highest level of customer experience, just know that we are too. And that’s why we’re here.
