Olympic Arms was started as Schuetzen Gun Works (SGW), established in 1956 in Colorado Springs, CO primarily as a barrel manufacturer. The owner learned his trade from his first business partner the famous P.O. Ackley, and continued many of Ackley's work ethics and quality standards in the new enterprise. The company moved to Olympia, WA in 1975, and proceeded to manufacture barrels and related parts under the SGW name.

In 1982 Olympic Arms, Inc. was founded to manufacture AR-Style components, and other military rifle parts - making Oly Arms the second oldest continuous manufacturer of AR-Style rifles in the United States. Originally our AR receivers were marked with not only the Oly Arms name, but also with the SGW crest. The receivers received the rampant lion found in our logo in 1993, and they have remained that way ever since. We now produce some of the finest AR-Style firearms available from a major manufacturer, with our top-of-the-line PCR-1 Ultramatch giving shooters sub-quarter inch groups at 100 yards on a regular basis.
