  Frankford Arsenal Reloading Tools
There aren't many veteran reloaders who are not familiar with the famous initials "FA" on military 30/06 brass and for good reason. The original Frankford Arsenal Army Ammunition Plant was constructed between 1816 and1830 on Frankford Creek, which flows into the Delaware River in Philadelphia. In addition to massive small arms ammunition production, Frankford Arsenal was responsible for almost all of the research and development and manufacture of U.S. Army field reloading equipment for the 45/70, 50/70, 30/40 Krag and 30/06, beginning in the 1880's. Their designs were excellent and the workmanship was always beyond question. At Battenfeld Technologies, we have chosen to name our line of metallic cartridge reloading equipment Frankford Arsenal®, in recognition of the history of this Arsenal, its outstanding contribution to reloading as we know it today and our desire to preserve this famous name. By offering well-designed and quality-manufactured products, we hope to reestablish Frankford Arsenal® as one of the world's leading brands of metallic reloading equipment.
