The Grenadier Story:

I suppose you may want to know a little about Grenadier Arms, as it started out as a dream. As a young boy, my Dad bought me a nickel-plated reproduction of a single action army with stag grips. Well, that began a long love affair with the single action army and it's variants. As I grew up, I found that I had a love for arms that was hard to indulge in basically gun free Japan, a nation that does not encourage arms ownership. I eagerly waited the day I could buy my own " Peacemaker."

In the meanwhile, my love of arms parlayed into a love of history. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in history from Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi in 1995. While earning my degree, I began my collection of WWI infantry rifles (they were cheap), and began a respectable collection of various weapons. All the while, I kept saving up my pennies to buy that single action army handgun.

It became obvious that this wasn't going to be as easy as I thought. The Colt was discontinued in 1982, so I was not likely to find one used in a pawnshop that did not have a premium price. The only option was to buy a reproduction.

I loved single actions but the target sighted Rugers and Interarms Dragoons did not catch my fancy. So I bought an Italian copy with a brass trigger guard and back strap. Well, that was one of my most hated guns I have had the displeasure to own. Blasted if nearly every part on the thing broke. I asked for assistance from the company I bought it from, but they didn't offer any. I thought I was ripped off!! And, I was.

Unfortunately, I had purchased my gun from a person that was interested in customers, not clients. What separates us from other companies is the fact that we are absolutely devoted to our clients. I don't want you to just buy one gun from us. I want to us to have such a relationship that when you think gun, you think "Grenadier".
Our Warranty is explained elsewhere, and we stand by our products we sell.

Selling guns for a living is not a job to me, but it's my passion. I love arms, and I love talking about them. Heck, there are not many guns that I don't like. But, I still have a special place in my heart for the military rifle. I have a complete collection of WWI infantry rifles, and most of the carbines. I'm here because I want to help You, the Client, share the fun of buying and owning the finest replicas in the world.

Well, that's a brief summary of how Grenadier Enterprises got started. Hope to be hearing from you soon!

Best Wishes Always!
