USFA Premium Grades. The name says it all. Attention to every detail… For those who demand only the finest in their shooting lives. The experienced sportsman and collector appreciate details of construction and the steps necessary to produce the most historic, most authentic revolvers and rifles today.

Every gun is an original piece of work based on a traditional design. The use of high-grade steel together with the most advanced machine tools results in closer tolerances, hence a better fit. All components are produced in the Hartford facility, then hand-assembled and finished.

The integration of technical and human resources results in something more than a mere reproduction or high quality replica. Each gun is an original piece of work based on a traditional design. Equally important, the gun is more reliable and far more accurate than its historical predecessor.

This strange object, at left, is a pallet- part of USFA's automated work holding technique. It weighs in excess of 500 lbs. More than 70 pallets are processed each day. USFA’s Milling, Lathe & EDM Departments are the cornerstone of our 100% American made products.

USFA is known the world over for its quality approach in every aspect of gun building. Handwork is no exception. Although fine machining is critical - the handwork process can “make or break” a product's life. No corners are cut in our effort to deliver quality in each product we make.
