Five years after Richard Dyke sold Bushmaster, Freedom Group moved the company out of Maine and left behind most of its employees.
Founder Richard Dyke then hired the former Bushmaster workers and established Windham Weaponry in 2011.
Dyke passed away in March 2023, leading to the sale of Windham Weaponry to new owners in 2024.
Known for its AR-15-style rifles, Windham Weaponry has reopened under new leadership. Still operating in Maine, several former Windham Weaponry and Bushmaster employees were brought back to help the brand's revival. While still offering AR-pattern rifles, the company has expanded its catalog to include Turkish shotguns and ammunition. Suppressors are coming soon. Windham Weaponry's Rick Gibbs discusses these developments with Guns & Ammo Editor-in-Chief Eric R. Poole.
