Arsenal Firearms USA To Become Archon Firearms

Thursday, December 21st, 2017

Las Vegas, Nevada – Arsenal Firearms U.S.A.–the Nevada-based manufacturer of innovative products such as the STRYK handgun–announced today that it is rebranding the organization to ARCHON FIREARMS (arK ahn) due to a potential trademark dispute. The company’s soon to be released pistol, the Stryk B, has been re-designated as the Archon Firearms Type B.

According to Archon Firearms CEO, Adrian Chavez, “Although we are confident in our legal right to the previous name, we’ve chosen to rebrand to avoid a potentially lengthy delay in the launch of our Type B pistol. Unfortunately, the rename does require manufacturing new slides with updated markings, as well as the reissue of an ATF-required marking variance, so some delay is inevitable and we now expect to launch in late Spring.

“We apologize for the frustration this may cause some of the tens of thousands of customers who have placed preorders through their dealers,” Chavez added. “We wouldn’t exist without their patronage and we are doing everything we can to expedite the process. Type B samples have been in final field validation for a month now with a select group of firearms trainers and competitors, and based on their unanimously positive feedback, we are confident the wait will be worth the inconvenience.”

About the Archon Firearms Type B Pistol
Developed in Italy, manufactured in the European Union, and designed specifically to fulfill the preferences and highest expectations of the U.S. market, the Type B represents a new class of compact, polymer grip, striker-fired handgun, and features an extremely low bore axis and unique recoil-reducing mechanical design boasting improved accuracy over conventional pistols. A number of features preferred by American shooters–which would typically require expensive customization–have been integrated into the Type B’s design.

About Archon Firearms
Archon Firearms is an innovation-driven firearms company based in Las Vegas, Nevada that is committed to providing apex shooting enthusiasts and U.S. warfighters and peacekeepers with high-performance products.

Patriot Ordnance Factory has come a long way from its humble beginnings. In 2002, an aerospace engineer by the name of Frank Desomma started POF-USA in his garage, and has been making a name for themselves ever since. Their latest move was completed in late 2017 into a custom built 27,000 square foot, two story, freestanding building, nearly triple is size of their old headquarters. Plus, an array of solar panels has been installed to take advantage of the 299 days of sunshine Phoenix, AZ has to offer to help lower overall operating cost.

Patriot Ordnance Factory’s new manufacturing facility is complete with multiple test-firing ranges, training rooms, increased manufacturing capabilities, full-service pro shop, and more. The larger facility will allow POF-USA to expand its offerings, such as their new offerings of Glock® slides and .300 Blackout rifles, pistols, and upper receivers.

Regarding this move, Patriot Ordnance Factory CEO Frank Desomma said, “For us, a move into a facility of this size is just as much about our faith in our country’s citizens as it is in increasing our ability to deliver better product, more efficiently. A company’s facility doesn’t always mean much to its customers. However, our customers are different. They are red-blooded, fire-breathing patriots. They care about your country’s success, appreciate American made goods, and reap the benefits that freedom provides. To us, freedom provides the ability to innovate. To think freely, and differently, and to deliver the best product we can, without restrictions. In a time where hard work and self-reliance is laughed at instead of lauded, we’re proud that our customers trust their lives to our rifles. This new facility is dedicated to them, and all freedom loving Americans. We promise to use it to its full potential by delivering the only thing we know how… The Ultimate Fighting Machines.”

Their new address is 1492 West Victory Lane, Phoenix, AZ 85027
