Verney Carron Arms
Verney Carron is among Europe’s oldest gunmakers, founded in 1820 in Saint Étienne, France. The company is known for sporting shotguns and hunting rifles, as well as the Flash Ball line of less lethal launchers used by French police. After entering insolvency proceedings in early 2025, Verney Carron was acquired in June 2025 by the Rivolier group, which retained most of the workforce and signaled continued production in Saint Étienne.
