Our Experience

Professional Marksmen Inc.

My name is Jon Weiler and I am the owner of Professional Marksmen Inc. I have been a long range rifle instructor for several years in for both recreational and tactical marksmen (and women). I have spent time in Iraq as a .50 Caliber Sniper Team Leader from 2003-2004, taking part in the invasion of Iraq with the 82^nd Airborne Division. I operated mainly out of Baghdad’s urban environment. Our year there was very productive and we gained valuable operational experience working as a small unit in the city. I left the Army in 2004 and took a newly formed position with Barrett Firearms Manufacturing Inc. as their Training Manager, responsible for organizing and developing their training current training program. I parted ways with the company in 2007 to form Professional Marksmen Inc. Now I am no longer limited to a certain caliber or rifle platform. Everything that I or my adjacent instructors do revolves around rifles and ammunition.

Delane Thomas
Delane has been building rifle now for about 20 years, with many custom builds to date, he has the experience and knowledge to recommend and construct a rifle exactly for your needs. I’ve yet to meet anyone with more practical shooting knowledge than Delane. Talking with one of his previous customers, they replied, “The only complaint I have with my rifle is that there’s no room for improvement.” I guess that’s a good thing.

Delane’s favorite caliber is the 6.5×284 and his long range rifle is built around that cartridge. He is always working with how to improve on the rifle platforms he creates and improve on the existing cartridge designs. He has worked closely with Savage Arms with some of their projects and has a great rapport with many of the different manufacturers in the industry. We have been very fortunate to get to work with some of the best individuals in this industry and Delane is at the top of that list. His recommendations come across in a practical, common sense way that is easy to understand.

Precision Reflex Inc.

We will also offer rifles in the AR Platform manufactured by Precision Reflex Inc. I first used one of their rifles in 2003 in Baghdad, Iraq when the Army was fielding the MK 12 Special Purpose Rifle. Since then, I have had the distinct pleasure of getting to know the owner, Dave Dunlap, and his very talented crew when working with the 6.8mm this past year. PRI has been building rifles and rifles mounts for well over 20 years now and have been one of the forerunners of the 6.8 SPC cartridge on the AR Platform. I am very impressed with the ballistics of the 6.8 SPC and the platform that PRI manufactures. We will be offering Custom AR Rifles chambered in both 5.56 and 6.8mm in any configuration applicable to precision shooting. We cannot say enough about the sheer quality and craftsmanship that PRI offers, along with their great customer service.

Training Packages

We also offer package deals that will include training at a discounted price with the purchase of one of our rifles. Depending on the caliber you purchase, we will set you up with either one of our scheduled courses at either the Neighbor Range Complex in South Dakota or the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, NM. We can also provide you with a private course with a group of friends. A discounted rate will apply to each of these courses with your rifle purchase because it is important to us to provide you with a good base in how to properly employ and care for your custom rifle. We also want to identify any possible issues that you may have. Training is the best way to do this.

This will also give our customers the ability to log on and post comments on how their rifles are performing and any issues they may have. We welcome all questions and you can also contact us at rifles@professionalmarksmen.com with anything that you may want to know. We are always available, no matter where we may be training at or what we have going on at the time. Our concern is our customers and helping to broaden our industry to protect our rights as American Citizens.
