Les Baer - History

History

Les Baer Custom Inc. was previously located in Hillsdale, Illinois, but moved to LeClaire, Iowa when Illinois started implementing restrictive gun laws.

This company, along with Smith & Wesson is currently the only pistol manufacturer who has authorization to use and display Clint Smith's Thunder Ranch logo, and currently offers a line of pistols and rifles that use the name. When asked for the reason that Les Baer would be given the authorization to use the Thunder Ranch logo, Clint Smith cited the outstanding accuracy and reliability of Baer's guns.

All Les Baer pistols come with a guarantee of at least 3" accuracy at 50 yards with an optional extra cost guarantee of 1.5" at the same distance. All rifles are guaranteed to shoot .5 MOA groups, except for the recently introduced Patrolman's Carbine, which is guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA.
