The best Sniper Rifle in the world!

Accuracy International was founded in 1978. In 2005 the company was bought out of administration by a small group of investors. This included the two original designers.

The newly formed company started with seven employees. As of April 2015 it has grown to 83 employees. This included nine, based at a facility in Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA.

With Directors Tom Irwin and Dave Walls, Accuracy International designs, develops and manufactures sniper rifles. These products are for military and law enforcement groups as well as civilian shooters in over 60 countries. They are considered the world’s premiere rifles.

The original designs use performance-enhancing features taken from Olympic target shooting. These features were built into a rifle platform built with full military ruggedness.

AI concentrated on tactical rifles which were intended for official use for defense, peacekeeping and internal security throughout the world.

The current models faithfully follow the original design ethics. They are driven by the needs of the users. These include highly trained military and police units in over 60 countries world-wide.

The Ministry of Defence

Designated L96A1 and nicknamed “Green Meanie” AI received the order for 1,212 rifles on 11th March 1985.

British Forces have used AI rifles since 1985. In 2008, the Ministry of Defence re-equipped all Forces with the company’s L115A3 sniper rifle system.

In the 1980’s the British MoD looked to replace the Lee-Enfield sniper rifle (L42A1). At the time the Parker-Hale was the biggest competitor for the Accuracy PM (Precision Marksman). The Accuracy PM was then designated as the L96A1 after beating the competition in trials. The L96A1 entered service in 1982.

Since 1998, Accuracy has continued to develop and manufacture firearms like the AX50 rifle in .50 BMG caliber, AW-series .308, also known as the Type 96 model, AW .338, and AX Series, earning Accuracy International the distinction of offering the most comprehensive range of tactical rifles in the world.
