Hämmerli has been a manufacturer of high-end rifle barrels, firearms, and firearm components and dates back to 1863 when Johann Ulrich Hämmerli founded the company to make rifle barrels for the Swiss Army. In 1950, Hämmerli produced Olympic rifles that were used by Olympic shooters to win gold medals at the next four Olympics. In 1966, production began on the famous Hämmerli Standard 208 pistol and over the next 40 years, the Hämmerli brand has become synonymous with high end, quality competition rifles and pistols that are unparalleled in performance.

 

Today, in addition to its competition line, Hämmerli offers a line of high powered, precision pellet air rifles and the 22SA .22 rimfire rifle. Air rifles are popular for year-round target practice and competition shooting. Magnum air rifles are also used for small game hunting.
