Thompson/Center

Performance driven hunting rifles

History of Thompson/Center

In the 1960s, while working in his basement, Warren Center developed an unusual break-action, single-shot pistol. During this same time, the K.W. Thompson Tool Company was on the search for a product they could manufacture year round. In 1965, Warren Center and the K.W. Thompson Tool Company teamed up to launch the Warren Center’s Contender pistol. Though it was more expensive than comparable hunting revolvers, the Contender lived up to its name. This revolver featured the flexibility of shooting multiple calibers through the simple act of changing out the barrel and sights. It quickly became a favorite amongst handgun hunters. While marketing the Contender, K.W. Thompson Tool changed their name to the Thompson/Center Arms Company. In 1970, they were credited with a resurgence of muzzle-loading firearms when they introduced the Warren Center’s Hawken-styled black powder muzzleloader rifle.

Thompson/Center was purchased by Smith & Wesson in 2007 and their manufacturing facilities were moved from the original Rochester, New Hampshire location to Springfield, Massachusetts. Today, Thompson/Center manufactures some of the most reliable and trusted rifles in the industry. They strive to continue innovating the best, most unique firearms that you will not only want but need in your collection.
