Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Barrett Fieldcraft

Whats the latest on the possibility of Barrett producing Fieldcraft again? Lost cause or a possible comeback.

they build sniper rifles and have a huge contract

this was a side project. the interview the son did with Q guy hinted it's not anytime soon they'll be back to market.

Last I heard they were selling the design/intellectual property to someone else, but I haven't heard anything else since.


Edit:

Fieldcraft Rifles

Well, it looks like the Barrett version of the Fieldcraft is gone. I guess it remains to be seen what the new Corp does with it. I’d love to see some prototypes at this year’s SHOT show, but I have no idea if or when anything is going to happen…

Maybe they just created the entity so they could sell it. We’ve all seen what happens when some “enthusiast” or money guy, or even another gun company buys a firearms company and tries to run it. Usually doesn’t end well.

The name and address of the company agent for Fieldcraft LLC is the owner of a paint & powder coating company in Tennessee.

The Field Craft civilian rifle was a stop-gap to help pay bills, keep staff employed, and keep machines running, in between multi-year, multi-million dollar, government contracts. Barrett is a government contractor. The civilian market is what they do to fill production capacity in between government contracts. "Filling capacity" will not be an issue for Barrett for the next 4-5 years.

Live Q or Die Podcast. Ep. 37.

I listen to it on Overcast. Free IOS app.

If Barrett ever does bring it back, can guarantee it will be well over $2k list. Have no idea had they made any money at previous list price.

Another thread here said they sold the design package to a separate entity, the thread even had a company name.

Doubt the will ever come back as they were, at least quality wise. Barrett had military contracts so their great QC carried over to their sporting guns.

Never handled one but all have said their sxs shotguns were also very well done.

Like all of us morons here, I wish I had pulled the trigger when SAS was blowing some out.

Colt tried, Forbes tried, Barrett succeeded with a fine rifle. I would like to see the Barrett offered again.

So what do you suppose the government will do with all their new sniper rifles? Target and cull the non vaccinated or all us vicious trump supporters or just give them to our foreign enemies? Wtf that's the real question.

The govt. is killing off all the deer, so they could be used for that.

Damned shame..

The "original " Fieldcraft design is still available? It's called NULA !

I saw that one. The Q podcast can be hit or miss IMO. That was the best one to date.

I liked the Fieldcraft better. It was less expensive and better looking with a stainless action something that NULA does not offer.

I fell in love with Fieldcrafts after purchasing my first which was a 270 on clearance somewhere.
