About This Business

Established in 1980 by retired Marine Master Sergeant William Wiseman, Bill Wiseman & Co. has become the global standard for ballistic test barrels and universal receivers. Located in College Station, Texas, our 7000 square foot facility, complete with a 100-meter underground testing range, is dedicated to precision manufacturing. We specialize in producing a comprehensive line of accuracy and pressure test barrels, alongside universal receivers, essential for the design, development, and rigorous testing of firearms, ammunition, and ballistic protection technologies. Our commitment to quality, rooted in Bill Wiseman's extensive military gunsmithing background and obsession with accuracy, ensures that every product meets the highest industry standards. We serve a diverse clientele including leading firearms and ammunition manufacturers, military and law enforcement agencies, body armor producers, independent ballistic testing laboratories, and specialty R&D firms. Our operations are built on three core principles: delivering quality products with exceptional service, fostering personal relationships with our customers, and offering fair pricing. We pride ourselves on our technical consultation and support, assisting clients with new caliber development, innovative testing approaches, and rifle action and barrel R&D. Bill Wiseman & Co. is not a retail store; we are a dedicated manufacturing and R&D partner to the global firearms industry.
