About Radian Weapons

Radian Weapons was originally founded as AXTS Weapon Systems in 2009 by Joshua Underwood and rebranded in 2016.

The company began as a machine shop in Salem, Oregon in 2001, evolving into firearms component manufacturing during the 2008-2009 surge in AR-15 demand.

In 2017, Radian relocated to an 18,000 square foot facility in Redmond, Oregon, seeking a more gun-friendly political climate in Central Oregon.

The company has established itself as setting the "gold standard" for ambidextrous charging handles and pioneered fully ambidextrous AR-15 controls with their patented A-DAC system.

Today, Radian Weapons remains committed to manufacturing premium, American-made firearms components that users can "stake their life on."
