MEET THE CREW

Adam Nilson

Owner, CEO

Adam’s entrepreneurial spirit has kept him out of corporate America, and constantly building small businesses in the Burlington, VT area. Adam’s passion for USPSA and 3-gun led him to the making of Atlas Gunworks. His first love is the Limited Division, where you will catch him testing prototypes. Adam’s business background in finance and growing small companies has been the driving force behind the growth of Atlas. When he’s not shooting, he is a sports enthusiast.
