Description
We are an integrated manufacturer of high-quality ammunition and ammunition components, serving commercial, law enforcement, and military markets. With in-house production capabilities, we are able to maintain tight control over our supply chain and quality assurance from raw material processing to final product assembly. We operate in a state-of-the-art facility that includes an on-site lead smelting operation, allowing us to ensure the consistency, purity, and availability of one of the most critical raw materials in ammunition manufacturing, and brass cup and casing manufacturing from raw materials. We maintain relationships with multiple raw materials suppliers worldwide, including but not limited to ABCO Metals, Gemciler Guven Metal, and Mittal Metals, to ensure a consistent inflow in the materials needed to manufacture product and avoid potential global supply issues. Our in-house wearable tooling department further enhances production efficiency and quality by designing and fabricating precision tools tailored to our manufacturing processes. Through stringent quality control, high-tech machinery, and deep industry expertise, we have established a strong reputation among shooting sports enthusiasts, tactical professionals, and OEM clients. We distribute our products primarily through distributor channels, but we also sell smaller quantities of product directly to consumers and small businesses. We take pride in our customer relationships and do not limit ourselves to only a few customers, but we strive to distribute as many of our products as practical to as many customers as possible. In doing so, we have developed a strong customer base with over 140 potential sales channels. Our vision is to establish ourselves as a leading participant in the United States and international ammunition markets. Through the production of high-quality, competitively priced products, we seek to achieve significant expansion of our market share and operational scale. As one of the few fully vertically integrated manufacturers capable of producing both components and finished cartridges, we maintain and continuously seek to strengthen a distinct competitive advantage supported by ongoing capital investments, strategic acquisitions, and partnerships. The global ammunition industry continues to experience robust demand driven by sustained civilian consumption for personal safety and recreational use, as well as increased defense and law enforcement expenditures amid geopolitical uncertainty. We are well-positioned to capture this growth through continuous process improvements, product line diversification, and the expansion of our distribution network. Concurrently, we intend to enhance our direct-to-consumer channels and brand visibility through targeted marketing, industry events, and strategic media collaborations. In addition to our core operations, on September 23, 2025, we entered into a strategic joint venture with ideaForge Technology Inc., the world’s #3 ranked dual-category drone manufacturer and a recognized innovator in unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”). The joint venture—First Forge Technologies Inc.—will be a U.S.-based enterprise focused on the localized production and sale of advanced drone platforms for defense, homeland security, and commercial applications. Leveraging ideaForge’s proprietary avionics and autonomous technologies alongside our precision manufacturing infrastructure and domestic supply chain capabilities, the venture will deliver fully U.S.-compliant, “Made in the USA” aerial systems designed to meet federal and state procurement standards. We anticipate initial production and pilot deployments beginning in early 2026, with the goal of securing government and enterprise contracts simultaneously. This initiative aligns with U.S. policy directives aimed at strengthening domestic manufacturing, enhancing national security, and fostering technological independence, positioning us for meaningful long-term growth across both ammunition and aerospace sectors. In furtherance of our drone and defense technology strategy, on May 1, 2026, we entered into a Master Services Agreement with Hellbender, Inc. for the design, engineering, prototyping and demonstration of volume manufacturing capability for two Class 1 attritable first-person-view drone platforms targeted for deployment consistent with U.S. National Defense Authorization Act requirements and the Department of Defense Drone Dominance Program parameters. --- We were originally formed as a limited liability company named First Breach, LLC under the laws of the State of Maryland on April 9, 2018 and subsequently converted to a corporation named First Breach Inc. incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 22, 2021.
