Whatever happened to Oregon Precision Arms

T22 · Sep 7, 2020

I just discovered Oregon Precision Arms and cant find any more information about them. Anyone know what happened to them? I'm guessing it was just too narrow of a market and probably prices that were a tad too high?

Inquiry: was thst the barrel specialty co. on SW coast? Whatever the similar name there, had serious fire a number of years ago. I lost track of them.

@41mag I believe you are thinking of Pac-Nor. Very sad story and I have not heard any updated news on if they decided to rebuild after the fire.

@T22 as far as I know, Dave and Oregon Precision Arms have gone out of business. A couple years ago I saw a craigslist ad for someone liquidating their CNC machine shop and it sure looked like Dave's operation.

Pac-nor is still around. Just pulled this from their website:

I'd like to know as well. I always wanted one of their uppers for my Ruger 22, but by the time I saved up enough...they were gone, and I'm unable to find any more info on them.
