The story of Tanner Sportwaffen AG began in the mid-1950s, when André Tanner, a passionate sports shooter and mechanical innovator, started crafting precision rifles in his garage. Driven by a desire to provide Swiss shooters with world-class equipment, Tanner’s early creations quickly gained a reputation for exceptional accuracy and reliability. Overcoming the challenges of small-scale production and fierce competition from larger manufacturers, the company remained steadfast in its commitment to quality. After André Tanner’s passing in 2010, the company continued to uphold his legacy, maintaining a tight-knit team of skilled craftsmen. Major milestones include the introduction of several custom rifle models tailored for Olympic and international competition, and the adoption of advanced machining techniques while preserving traditional hand-finishing. Today, Tanner Sportwaffen AG stands as a symbol of Swiss precision and dedication, serving elite shooters worldwide and inspiring the next generation of marksmen.
