Weatherby

Established in 1945, the smell of rich leather and gun oil greeted every customer stepping into Weatherby’s Sporting Goods in California, where the legend began. It wasn’t a big store, just 25′ x 70′, but it promised the beginning of something huge.

Weatherby’s outgrew its space, and in 1951 relocated to Firestone Boulevard just around the corner from the old store. It housed the store, gun shops, offices and even a 100-yard underground rifle range. Sportsmen and women came from far and near to visit Weatherby’s.

In 1983, Roy passed the Weatherby torch to his son Ed. In the decades to follow under Ed’s leadership, Weatherby grew in both Mark V and Vanguard offerings, including the newest Vanguard rifles with guaranteed SUB-MOA accuracy. In addition to rifles, Weatherby’s ammunition, semi-auto and pump shotguns, accessories and apparel continue to delight sporting enthusiasts worldwide.
