Springfield Armory Announces New Distributors

GENESEO, ILL. – Springfield Armory is proud to announce its partnership with two new wholesale distributors, Camfour, Inc. and Hill Country Wholesale, Inc.

“We have an incredibly low number of distributors for our industry, and that is because we are extremely selective about whom we choose to go into business with,” explains Springfield Armory CEO Dennis Reese. “We view our relationships with our distributors as partnerships.”

Based out of Westfield, Massachusetts, Camfour, Inc. has been selling wholesale products on behalf of the firearms industry since 1961. No stranger to innovation, Camfour was the first of its kind to offer online ordering capabilities in 1984 with its software, PCGun, and is further modernizing its ordering and account management approach with an all-new software introduced this year called, EZGun.

Hill Country Wholesale, Inc., headquartered in Pflugerville, Texas, is also linked into Camfour’s EZGun software and carries a rich tradition of customer service excellence and industry acumen.

“We are pleased to add to our family of distributors,” says Springfield Armory VP of Distribution Peggy Hickenbottom. “The sales staff is top notch and eager to bring our line to their retailers. They will be a good fit and an enjoyable group of people to work with.”

Camfour and Hill Country host an annual trade show at Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut.

About Springfield Armory®

In 1794, the original Springfield Armory was designated as our national armory by General George Washington, and began manufacturing muskets for the defense of our young, free Republic. This monumental institution went on to serve as a think tank for developing innovative firearms concepts and producing some of the most storied rifle platforms in our country’s history. The Armory functioned as a firearms supplier for every major American conflict until 1968 when the government sadly closed its doors. In 1974, two centuries after its inception, Springfield Armory Inc. in Geneseo, IL revived the iconic heritage of the Armory to carry on its legacy and restore the Springfield Armory name.

Springfield Armory Inc. engineers, manufactures and assembles their legendary M1A™, 1911 and SAINT® AR-15 lines of firearms in Geneseo, Illinois. Since 2001, Springfield Armory has enjoyed a strategic, collaborative partnership with the state-of-the-art factory in Croatia working hand-in-hand to develop and engineer the multiple award-winning line of XD® polymer pistols that have become staples in the US marketplace. We strive to honor this responsibility as guardians of the original Springfield Armory legacy by manufacturing the highest quality firearms to enable responsible citizens to preserve their right to keep and bear arms in the defense of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

With an unmatched emphasis on craftsmanship, performance and exceptional customer service, our mission is to forge superior firearms and provide the tools necessary to defend individual freedoms and equality for those who embrace the rights and principles secured by our Founding Fathers.
