A message from the Founder of Founding Fathers Armory, Paul Atwood

To my Dear Customers, Friends, and Fellow Patriots:

When I began Founding Fathers Armory six years ago, I dedicated myself to designing and manufacturing some of the most unique and functional firearm receivers and accessories in the firearms industry, and offering them to my customers with the highest possible attention to customer service. I have developed countless friendships and met many great people who have become loyal customers and dealers. These men and women are first and foremost great patriots of our country, and firearm enthusiasts who recognize the personal effort and dedication that went into the manufacturing of every Founding Fathers Armory product. It has truly been a great privilege to associate with all of you. I have especially enjoyed having the opportunity to include a pocket-size constitution with every product sold and to have been blessed with the opportunity to have many open conversations with customers and detractors alike about this awesome and defining document of the Great American Dream.

As most of you probably know, I have always operated founding fathers Armory as a one-man operation. Unfortunately, beginning in the fall of 2016 I apparently began getting older! And with that age has come a series of health problems which severely complicated and limited my ability to deliver on my commitment of providing exceptional customer service. It became increasingly difficult to maintain regular hours and to be able to communicate effectively with customers on a timely basis. I struggled immensely with the desire to continue forward with my little piece of the American Dream and my decreasing abilities to honor my commitments to you. Last year I finally made the extremely difficult decision to shutter Founding Fathers Armory so that I could concentrate on getting better. Fortunately, a good friend convinced me to consider a different path, one that meant my dream could live on through someone else.

In this industry, it takes people with unique sets of skills, determination and tenacity to survive, let alone thrive and grow. We had many interested parties and interviewed dozens of people before we found who we think would be the best fit to carry on the legacy of Founding Fathers Armory. THE MOST IMPORTANT thing on my mind through it all was to find someone who had the understanding and passion for the ideals, values and views of the Founding Fathers and their intentions in establishing our great republic and a solid concern and dedication for its continued success. I had my doubts at times that it would happen, but I am proud to say we finally found them. Before introducing them, I would like to take one final opportunity to thank you so much for your friendship, support, patience and loyalty as I continued through this great adventure. I fervently maintain now, as I did in the beginning that America is the greatest country in the world and that it is the only place where a person such as I could embark on such an adventure and find joy and success in doing so.

It is my pleasure to introduce you to the new owners of Founding Fathers Armory, Alex and Anna Crane.

Sincerely,

Paul Atwood
Founder, Founding Fathers Armory
