About Springfield Armory

The Springfield Armory has a rich history rooted in the American Revolution. Originally built in 1777 by George Washington, its purpose was to store munitions for the Continental Army. In 1794, it transitioned into a renowned firearms manufacturer. When the Reese family took over in 1974, they revitalized the armory and made it into the company it is today. The Springfield Armory is known for producing top-quality handguns and rifles, including the Springfield XD pistol, Springfield Hellcat, Springfield SAINT, and the new Springfield Echelon pistol. It is a popular brand due to its exceptional quality and cutting-edge engineering. If you want to learn more, check out our Springfield Armory page at GrabAGun!
