GAMO USA Airguns and Air Rifles
About GAMO USA
GAMO traces its roots back to the late 1880s when the company was known as Antonio Casas, S.A., manufacturing various lead products in Barcelona, Spain.
In 1950, the company began specializing in high-quality airgun pellets for the European market, and by 1959 formed as "Industrias El Gamo" to transition into airgun manufacturing.
The company introduced its first GAMO airguns to the Spanish market in 1961 and began exporting internationally by 1963, quickly gaining popularity across Europe.
GAMO USA was established in 1995 to better serve the growing North American market, bringing European quality and innovation to American shooters.
Today, GAMO is the largest airgun manufacturer in Europe and the world's largest pellet manufacturer, operating in over 90 countries with trusted performance for hunting, pest control, and recreational shooting.
