OUR HISTORY CAN BE TRACED BACK TO A COMPANY CALLED RAMO, FOUNDED IN 1977 BY PONY MAPLES AND KAY HORTON. RAMO WAS THE FIRST COMPANY AFTER WORLD WAR II TO MANUFACTURE M2HB .50 CALIBER MACHINE GUNS. FROM THAT EXPERIENCE SPAWNED AN UNDERSTANDING OF WEAPONS MOUNTS AND MILITARY SYSTEMS GROUP.

MSG initially made its mark in naval applications, working with boat manufacturers, then Crane, the U.S. Navy, and U.S. Coast Guard. By the late 1990s, Navy SEALs and the USMC began to leverage MSG capabilities for vehicle mounts and weapon/vehicle accessories. When we developed our double-articulating swing arm, we drew interest from U.S. Special Forces, the U.S. Army, and foreign militaries.

9/11 drove many changes. MSG rebuilt itself to support rapid design cycles, professionalizing its processes and developing in-house manufacturing capability. What didn't change is the company values.

More recently, MSG has partnered with Special Operations Forces in turning commercial vehicles into combat systems and added an array of foreign weapons mounts. In 2016, it also opened limited sales to the U.S. domestic market for hunters and shooting enthusiasts.

MILITARY SYSTEMS GROUP STANDS READY FOR WHAT COMES NEXT. WE ARE PREPARED TO HELP.
