Founded in 1919 by Oscar Frederick Mossberg, a native of Sweden, and his two sons Iver and Harold, O.F. Mossberg & Sons–more commonly known as Mossberg–has become one of the leading firearms manufacturers in the United States. Currently specializing in shotguns, rifles, scopes and other various firearms accessories, Mossberg began by producing a four barreled .22 caliber handgun known as the “Brownie.” Following in the footsteps of the Brownie’s success, Mossberg developed .22 caliber target and sporting rifles, shotguns, and rifle scopes that helped to diversify the sporting goods market.
