WATCHTOWER, a veteran-owned firearm manufacturing company based in Spring, Texas, officially launched as a new American firearms company. Led by CEO Jason Colosky, WATCHTOWER is poised to revolutionize the market with its diverse range of military, civilian, and precision firearms, suppressors, and accessories. The company's name pays homage to the 7000 service members that gave their lives during the invasion of Guadalcanal, turning the tide in the Pacific during World War II - codenamed Operation WATCHTOWER.
WATCHTOWER's foundation is based on the recent acquisition of F-1 Firearms, Inc., a successful firearms manufacturer. This strategic move further strengthens WATCHTOWER's position in the market, combining the expertise, resources, and assets of both organizations to provide unique products and services to the firearms industry.
WATCHTOWER will focus on three primary markets, catering to the existing consumer market that F-1 Firearms excelled in for 10 years, as well as expanding into domestic and foreign military & law enforcement markets. By diversifying its reach, WATCHTOWER aims to provide exceptional firearms to individuals for self-defense, sporting, and hunting while also serving the needs of military and law enforcement personnel worldwide.
"I'm honored to lead WATCHTOWER into this exciting new chapter," said WATCHTOWER CEO Jason Colosky. "The acquisition of F-1 Firearms brings together two exceptional companies, creating a powerhouse in the industry. Our collective expertise and dedication will drive us to become the premier firearms manufacturer, delivering unparalleled quality and innovation. Our goal is to build the next great American firearms company."
WATCHTOWER, headquartered in Spring, Texas, maintains strategic partnerships with vendors, federally licensed firearms dealers, and distributors globally. This enables the company to ensure broad accessibility to its products while maintaining its commitment to superior quality all while staying true to its promise of "Built in America".
