Ferrum Arms

Ferrum — Latin for iron. An American company building a federally licensed firearms manufacturing operation from the ground up. Precision hardware, disciplined compliance, and a right worth building for.

Our Mission

Forged For A Free People

The right to keep and bear arms was never a hobby or a market segment — it was a check the founding generation placed directly in the hands of citizens, and a responsibility they expected those citizens to carry. That responsibility fell to us. It still does.

We the People wrote that right into the first ten amendments because a free country asked its own citizens to help guard it. Ferrum Arms is being built to make hardware worthy of that trust. Once our federal license is issued, every firearm we make will be manufactured under it, serialized and tracked from the first cut, and sold only through the dealers and distributors the law already trusts to do it right.

What Begins When The License Is Issued

Manufacturing, contract runs, and compliance recordkeeping — all of it planned, none of it offered yet. Our FFL application is still in process, and we’d rather tell you what’s coming than pretend it’s already here.

01
Begins At Licensing
Precision Manufacturing
Small-arms manufacturing built around consistent tolerances, proper marking and serialization (0.003" deep, 1/16" print), and quality control at every station. Production begins when our license is issued — not before.
02
Begins At Licensing
Compliance & Recordkeeping
Electronic A&D bound-book records, AFMER reporting, and audit-ready documentation, stood up before day one rather than bolted on after an inspection. We are building the records system now so it is running the day the license arrives.
03
Begins At Licensing
Contract & OEM Manufacturing
Private-label and contract runs for other FFLs and brands — your spec and your tolerances, built with the same discipline as everything else that will leave the shop. Available once our federal manufacturing license is issued.
