About
ArmaLite was founded in the mid-fifties by George Sullivan. Its most well-known product is the AR-15 rifle designed by Eugene Stoner, though ArmaLite sold the AR-15 design to Colt due to financial difficulties, making Colt the primary producer of AR-15 derivative rifles, and the creator of the M16 rifle adopted by the US military.
In the early 1960s, the AR-18 was introduced, as ArmaLite's answer to the AR-15, however it failed to supersede the Colt rifles.
ArmaLite ceased all operations in the early 1980s, but was later "resurrected" after numerous unsuccessful attempts. New types of weapons were also introduced, including large-caliber sniper rifles and self-loading pistols.
