L&R Lock Company

It is our belief that without sacrificing quality you can re-create the rugged durability and yet, still retain the aesthetic beauty of the locks of the 18th and 19th century. Always keeping the "Shooter" foremost, we are especially proud of the many local, national, and world records that have been established with the use of our locks and triggers. We strive to emulate those makers of a bygone era whose names have become synonymous with quality. Manton, Dickert, Egg and Hawken, to mention a few, are names we set our standards by. When you purchase an L & R product, you can be assured that we stand behind our work. All our fine, quality products are made entirely in the U.S.A.
