Netballistics specializes in firearms and ammunition, catering to a diverse client base. The company is based in Louisville, US, and was acquired by Blue Equity in 2011, with financial terms undisclosed. The company specializes in a wide range of firearms and ammunition, catering primarily to both recreational and professional users.
Their core offerings include handguns, rifles, shotguns, and various types of ammunition designed for hunting, sport shooting, and self-defense purposes. The products are marketed towards a diverse client base that includes individual consumers, law enforcement agencies, and sporting goods retailers. The company emphasizes the quality and reliability of its products to address the needs of enthusiasts and professionals seeking dependable performance in various scenarios.

The revenue model of the company revolves around direct sales of firearms and ammunition to consumers and retailers, with a structured pricing strategy that reflects the quality and specifications of their products.

Firearms ship for a flat rate of USD 25, while other products incur a shipping charge of USD 10, establishing a straightforward cost framework for customers.

Netballistics is focused on expanding its product line, with upcoming launches planned for new ammunition types and accessories anticipated in late 2023. The company aims to penetrate the European market more deeply by mid-2024, targeting countries like Germany and France.
