MURFREESBORO, TN<\/strong> \u2013 Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, Inc., is proud to announce that the Colombian National Army has awarded the company its largest international military contract for the acquisition of the MRAD (Multi-Role Adaptive Design) sniper rifle and AM338 suppressors. Deliveries of the systems are scheduled to begin in the summer of 2025.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The contract includes MRAD rifles chambered in 7.62x51mm and .338 Lapua Magnum, paired with the AM338 Suppressor and Leupold Mark 5HD optics. This adoption marks a pivotal step in the Colombian military\u2019s efforts to standardize its precision rifle systems with a modular, multi-caliber, modern solution. Barrett\u2019s MRAD rifles were selected following their proven success in special forces and army deployments worldwide, having earned a reputation for unparalleled performance and adaptability.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply honored to have secured this new contract with our professional customers in Colombia,\u201d said Cooper Thompson, Barrett\u2019s Director of International Sales. \u201cThis collaboration is a monumental moment for us, as this contract sets our record for the largest single acquisition of MRAD systems from any international military end user to date. We look forward to reinforcing our already successful relationship with the Colombian military, and we anticipate overwhelming success and growth together.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This milestone reflects Barrett\u2019s ongoing commitment to supporting international defense forces and expanding its presence internationally. The adoption of the MRAD platform will enhance the Colombian National Army\u2019s capabilities, providing state-of-the-art precision and modularity to meet the demands of modern military operations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
