on

Advancing Next-Generation Composite Solutions for Firearm Components

BERKELEY, Calif., Jan. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ARRIS® Composites, an advanced manufacturer with a breakthrough technology enabling the highest-performing fiber-reinforced composites at scale, today announced a strategic technology partnership with Henry Repeating Arms, one of the country’s leading firearms manufacturers and a world leader in the lever action category.

The collaboration will leverage ARRIS’ composite technology to launch innovative solutions for lightweight and high-strength firearm components. The first part is expected to launch as soon as Q2 of 2025.

The partnership brings together ARRIS’ cutting-edge material science and manufacturing technologies with Henry Repeating Arms’ dedication to innovation, both companies guided by a shared commitment to performance and value.

Pioneering a New Era: Advancing Firearm Performance by Way of Advanced Materials & Precision Craftsmanship

With ARRIS’ composite technology, the partnership enables the development of next-generation firearm components in an innovative way. By integrating advanced composites into firearm design, Henry Repeating Arms aims to provide its customers enhanced performance and lighter-weight firearms and accessories to meet the evolving needs of hunters and hobbyists.

“At Henry Repeating Arms, we are always in search of cutting-edge ways to improve the form and function of our products,” said Andrew Wickstrom, President of Henry Repeating Arms. “Partnering with ARRIS Composites allows us to look beyond what’s been done before and push the boundaries of what’s possible with innovative materials, ensuring we continue delivering best-in-class firearms made in America.”

Founded in 2017, the ARRIS team created a new manufacturing category called Additive Molding by pioneering the development of patented software, materials, and high-volume production methods that prioritize specific stiffness and strength. New levels of product performance are now possible with this first-of-its-kind advanced manufacturing platform, enabling continuous, multi-scale, and cross-scale fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite structures that are lighter and more sustainable.

ARRIS ranked as one of Fast Company’s “10 Most Innovative Manufacturers” and has earned the BIG Innovation Award four years straight from the Business Intelligence Group—the most recent award announced in 2024 recognizes ARRIS MTO Spokes (Made To Outperform®). In late 2024, ARRIS revealed its first direct-to-consumer brand, AURORRA by ARRIS (AXA), featuring exclusive, tech-driven carbon fiber insoles and other premium products designed for everyday performance, available at aurorra.com and through surprise pop-up events.
