2005: Roedale Precision Rifles was founded The
company was run as a part time business. Building extreme robust, dependable
Hunting and Match Rifles with garuanteed accuracy was the main focus.
2008: Roedale Precision is turned into a full time business
building bespoke - absolute one of a kind Precision Rifles with exacting
Quality. During 2008 we also built our new workshop.
2009: Roedale Precision introduces own design - own
manufacture component products with the idea to replace hard to
procure parts and introduce accessories that are new and exclusive to
Roedale. Desing innovation makes our products very popular very soon.
2010: Own design product range is increased with further developement and marketing.
For 5 years Roedale Precision Rifles built Bespoke Custom Rifles. Each
and every rifle was an absolute one of a kind. Exacting accuracy and
highest Quality, built to the specifications of each and every customer
individualy. Roedale Precision offered customers
the possibility to have a Bespoke rifle built to thier own specifications
on thier own choice of parts. Unfortunately this was a
mission that proved to be not as simple as it first sounds. Ever
increasingly stringent US Export regulations made the procurement of
USA manufactured parts very difficult. Availability and punctuality
suffered as a result. At one point we had a choice of over 750 stock
options, 5 or 6 Action Manufacturers, 7 Barrel Manufacturers plus the
Accessorie Manufacturers. This meant that a customer had a choice of
over 25.000 different options.
Fantastic choice + Great Idea = Logistical Nightmare. We saw
problems due to certain suppliers making promises of quality and
time that they couldn't deliver. Export issues also played an annoying
role.Retailers and Customers all suffer from the well know general apathy
within the Firearms Industry it took us a while to sort the wheat
from the chaff when it came to reliable partners. We had to do some backside
kicking and a fair amount of shouting into the process, but towards the
end of 2010 a definate direction was apparent.
2011: Further steps taken in independancy from foriegn suppliers,
production of major components concentrated on EU suppliers and foriegn supply
concentrated on a selection of absolutely dependable sources.
