About Kizilkaya Arms
Ömer Kızılkaya, founder of Kızılkaya Arms, began his career in 1992 at one of Turkey’s most respected, internationally recognized firearms manufacturers and a leading company in the sector.
Throughout his career, he held various positions in the production of over‑under (superposed), side‑by‑side, and semi‑automatic shotguns, gaining extensive experience in manufacturing, quality control, and product development.
In 2008, he was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors by the company’s partners. After serving successfully in this role for seven years, he voluntarily stepped down to pursue new entrepreneurial goals.
Shortly thereafter, together with three partners, he founded a new company focused on the joint production of shotguns. Within this organization, he led the development and manufacture of high-quality, high value‑added shotguns that had not previously been produced in Turkey, exporting them to markets around the world.
Today, Kızılkaya Arms builds upon this deep industry expertise, combining advanced engineering with refined craftsmanship to produce competition‑grade firearms for the global market.
Kizilkaya Arms – A Passion for Quality
Over the past 30 years, Kızılkaya has participated in numerous national and international trade fairs, gaining valuable insight into global market trends, customer expectations, and the latest innovations in the firearms industry. This international exposure has played a key role in shaping the company’s vision and product development philosophy.
Throughout this journey, the team has developed highly distinctive and premium-quality firearms, building deep expertise through hands-on experience and leadership within the sector.
With the goal of transforming three decades of knowledge and industry experience into a lasting corporate legacy, Kızılkaya Hunting and Sports Weapons Manufacturing Industry and Trade Ltd. Co. was established. This new chapter represents a long-term commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and sustainable growth.
The company’s primary objective is clear: to become a recognized global brand in the medium and long term by manufacturing high-quality, precision-engineered firearms. Guided by this vision, Kızılkaya continues its journey with passion, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
