Behind the Gun
Mid-Atlantic Imports was founded by Rob Bird, a lifelong firearms enthusiast, a hunter, and a competitive shooter, based in Woodbine, Maryland. With hands-on experience spanning military surplus collecting, precision reloading, and amateur gunsmithing — from rust bluing and stock work to parts fitting and restoration — the business grew out of a genuine passion for the firearms that defined a century of military and sporting history. A active competitor in CMP matches and Black Powder Cartridge Rifle silhouette, and a serious collector, the knowledge behind Mid-Atlantic Imports isn't academic — it comes from years spent behind the trigger, at the workbench, and at the auction table.
