Cobalt Kinetics

About Cobalt Kinetics

Cobalt Kinetics was founded in 2014 in Washington, Utah, as a response to the status quo of black rifles in the marketplace.

The company's founders were tired of run-of-the-mill AR-15s and sought to create truly innovative firearms that would revolutionize the industry.

In July 2020, BAQ Defense acquired Cobalt Kinetics, launching "Cobalt Kinetics 2.0" under the leadership of President Aaron Quinn and VP Jason Parker.

The company has earned recognition as bringing genuine innovation to the AR-15 platform, with industry experts calling their designs "unprecedented" and dubbing them "The Ferrari of the AR-15 World."

Today, Cobalt Kinetics continues to push the boundaries of firearms engineering from their St. George, Utah facility, focusing on practical, professional-grade firearms for competition shooters and law enforcement professionals.
