Christensen Arms was the first to develop the carbon fiber rifle barrel and opened the door to innovation in the firearms industry and continues to do so with their increasing line of high quality products. The growing popularity of lightweight AR15 rifle builds is only continued by Christensen Arms line of carbon fiber barrels and stocks and will continue to be a driving force behind firearms innovation.
