Last week we were up in Bentonville, AR mountain biking and we arranged a tour of the Wilson Combat factory which was about an hour and a half away. I have been a HUGE WC fanboy for over 10 years and own several of them. I don’t think anyone builds better pistols or ARs.
It’s a very impressive facility. One of the first things we encountered when going into the factory was a wall of some of Bill’s mounts. This guy is serious about hunting and he told me once his goal was to spend 50% of the time hunting.. like, every other day. I was fortunate enough to get to go to his place in northeast Texas with my son Sean. What a treat.

It’s great to see an American company thriving by focusing in on a quality product!
I had been wanting to buy a Wilson Combat 1911 and after reading this article, decided to drive down the Berryville, AR and tour the plant. I called and told the the person answering the phone that I was interested in a tour and asked if I could speak with someone about their 1911s. No problem I was told and was given an appointment time. After driving 300 miles, I showed up and was able to speak with a very helpful individual but was informed that Wilson Combat does NOT DO TOURS. Wow.
