College Station, Texas – Horizon Firearms is pleased to announce a partnership with Sports, Inc. as their newest vendor. Sports, Inc. members are open to order Truly Custom Horizon Firearms rifles effective immediately.
Horizon Firearms is redefining what “custom rifle” means. All Horizon rifles are guaranteed to shoot .5 MOA or better, with the factory-loaded ammo dealers are already selling in their stores. However, a custom rifle doesn’t have to be about long-range accuracy alone. From chambering the rifles in hot new cartridges – including 6.5 PRC, 300 PRC, and 22 Creedmoor – to unique barrel fluting patterns, custom branding, and paint schemes, Horizon Firearms rifles are individually designed and built to not only be long-range accurate but to be one-of-a-kind, truly custom rifles.
“Sports, Inc. offers a fantastic platform for its members in today’s ultra-competitive market,” stated Derrick Ratliff, founder and president of Horizon Firearms. “We are grateful for the opportunity to be a vendor for Sports, Inc. and look forward to working with its members to create a successful and longstanding program.”
The partnership allows Sports, Inc. members to tap into the growing custom rifle segment of the shooting sports industry with minimal risk. Members can create a rifle series exclusive to their store, order from Horizon’s ready-to-ship rifle inventory, or work directly with a customer as a consultant to build the truly custom rifle of their dreams.
“We’re very excited to bring our new partnership with Horizon Firearms to our independent dealer network. Shooters’ needs today are evolving. We’re seeing higher demand for rifles that not only perform but are truly custom to that individual’s desires and needs. This is exactly what Horizon Firearms provides. Whatever the customer can dream up … Horizon can build it,” commented Sports, Inc. president, Andy Eames.
Eames continued, “Just like Horizon builds custom rifles, our dealers across the country are also ‘custom’ in regard to their storefronts and models for success. They have the expertise and trust their customers rely on in their markets. And, they have the ability to connect their customer with Horizon to provide a truly custom rifle that their customer will own and pass on through the generations. It’s a great fit.”
The program negotiated with Sports, Inc. includes no minimum buy-ins and automatic best-price. Members will have a chance to see an assortment of Horizon Firearms rifles in person at the Sports, Inc. show in Indianapolis this August. Sports, Inc. members interested in becoming a Horizon Firearms dealer can take advantage of the early bird offer to lock-in extra margin points for the first year.
