Proven Arms & Outfitters is Now Open for Business

Monday, October 29th, 2018

Join us for our Grand Opening November 3rd 2018

ABERDEEN, N.C. – (November 2018)- Proven Arms & Outfitters is proud to announce their Grand Opening celebration on Saturday, November 3rd, 2018 at their locations in Tacoma, Washington, and Woodbridge, Virginia. The event falls on a weekend long Grand Opening sale, 2nd-4th of November, where customers can save 20% off storewide and up to 50% or more off of closeout items.

Proven Arms & Outfitters and ProvenOutfitters.com come after 14 years of operating as the commercial retail division of Quantico Tactical. A name that has long served the surrounding communities with the latest in firearms, gear, and apparel to military personnel, federal agencies, law enforcement, and tactical enthusiasts. After much reflection, it was decided that to serve its customers better it would be best to split the company into two separate entities, one focused on retail sales and the other on government sales.

Message from Retired Marine, Founder & CEO David Hensley

“Since my retirement, Quantico Tactical has operated its retail storefront, web sales, and government operations as one company – Quantico Tactical. Retail Stores & Web Sales are now Proven Arms & Outfitters. Proven Arms & Outfitters has the same excellent selection of weapons and gear offered by Quantico Tactical and will expand into new categories over time to better serve our customers.

Quantico Tactical will now focus solely on sales and logistics to the military, federal agencies, state/local law enforcement agencies and private security. We will maintain our same team and continue to provide exceptional customer service, value, and on-time delivery.

To all of our customers, I want to take this time to thank you for your business through the years. Whether a retail or government customer, you can Count On More™”

Proven Arms and Outfitters encourages the public to come to this great event! There will be door prizes for the first 100 customers, chances to win a rifle from Lewis Machine and Tool, a Mossberg shotgun, Surefire lights, and much more! Customers will also get free gifts, stickers, hats, patches and more from their favorite brands just for attending! Plus, they’ll have the opportunity to purchase products at closeout and clearance prices that are so low they can’t be advertised.

Stay tuned and look forward to more exciting announcements coming from Proven Arms & Outfitters very soon!
