Welcome to Founders Armory

Serious hardware for serious collectors

Who We Are

Founders Armory works the corner of the market most shops don't reach: exotic and Class III firearms, high-end night vision and thermal, and the gear that goes with them. Our clients are private collectors, law enforcement, and people who already know what they want and just need someone who can actually get it, right here in Scottsdale, Arizona.

We run it by appointment for a reason: one client at a time, straight answers, and the NFA paperwork handled right. Tell us what you're after and we'll take it from there.
