Stafford, TX, USA — January 10, 2016
Radical Firearms is proud to announce it will be building the 225TH Anniversary Commemorative Edition Rifle for the United States Marshals Service. The new rifle will be built in limited numbers and will be available to serving or retired United States Marshals and Deputy Marshals only.
If you are in Las Vegas for the 2016 NSSF SHOT Show, come find us at Media Day at the Range or join us at Booth #20130 in the law enforcement section. If you’re available Tuesday representatives of the US Marshals Association (USMSA) will be on hand.
The United States Marshals Service is the oldest serving law enforcement in the country. It was established in September of 1789 by President George Washington. He commissioned the first 13 Marshals on September 26TH, choosing the first 13 Marshals. Many of them he knew personally. The Marshals and Deputy Marshals of today proudly carry on their legacy of service.
This honor comes at one of our busiest times yet. Demand has surged (likely due to recent POTUS/Administration posturing) to an all time high. Last week we received over 10,000 orders. This has necessitated a change to our operations. All lower receivers and stripped upper receivers have been removed as individual purchase items and have been dedicated to the production of full rifle and pistol builds. All orders will be shipped in the order received. On-site visits and local retail sales will temporarily be restricted to appointment only. We love welcoming visitors but things are currently at an incredibly hectic pace. We have added phone lines to increase our ability to respond more quickly and are working to answer e-mails more expeditiously as well. Unfortunately (or, fortunately, depending on your perspective!) we receive 1,000 or more e-mails every day. Production has been increased to 24/7 and staff adjusted to accommodate that.
2016 promises to be one hell of a year.
