DESIGNED BY THUNDER RANCH, MADE BY AERO:
Clint Smith, Founder of Thunder Ranch was once quoted as saying "It's pretty simple, God and Stoner got it right to start with and this is, in my minds eye, the pinnacle that I've searched for. I could never get anyone to quite go where I wanted to go and this is it. This is not necessarily an improvement on Stoners design, it's an addendum to it to make this gun more shootable for more people. It's about making the gun just a little bit better for a lot more people."
The Thunder Ranch product line is a joint venture between Aero Precision and Thunder Ranch. Aimed to achieve Clint Smith’s ideal purpose built “Ultimate Carbine”, these products include key features requested from Clint Smith himself but with an Aero Precision flare. Like everything surrounding the Thunder Ranch name, you get exactly what you need - nothing more and nothing less.
