Welcome to Paladin Firearms

We are a  shop for the shooting sports enthusiast located in the rural western Massachusetts town of New Marlborough, near the Connecticut and New York borders. Founded by Bill West in 2008, Paladin Firearms is the culmination of his 40 years of hunting and shooting sports involvment. Bill is an avid outdoorsman, hunter, competitive shooter, NRA Instructor, certified armorer and has an obvious talent for mechanical design and custom fabrication. 

Paladin Firearms is a division of West Engineering, a well known and respected race car engineering and services company at the same location. Established in 1978, West Engineering has produced, modified or restored many current and vintage endurance road racing cars.
