VANN HAIGLER
OWNER OF BESSER GEWEHR ARMS
Hello, my name is Vann Haigler. Being the owner of Besser Gewehr Arms, I have been involved with firearms and shooting sports for most of my life. I love to help teach others to enjoy firearm ownership and to understand the reasoning behind safe gun handling.
In the recent past, I was involved with promoting shooting sports through fundraising via the Friends of NRA (NRA Foundation). I was the original Chairman for the Union County/Monroe Friends of NRA and continued this role for 14 years. Also, for 7 years, I worked in the Hunting Department at a great outdoor company called Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World (“Your adventure starts here.”) located in Concord N.C.
Throughout this time in my life, I met many amazing people and many of them have become lifelong friends. This part of my life was also instrumental to me by seeing the importance of teaching today's youth safe gun handling practices and the history of firearms within our nation. I also saw the need to understand that our freedoms defined within the Constitution are of the utmost importance. So, since firearms and firearm ownership had become such a passion for me, I started Besser Gewehr Arms.
When I am not overseeing the daily aspects of running a small business, I do enjoy a little down time. These hobbies include camping with the love of my life (my wife, Bonnie), being outdoors, and if this China Virus ever ends, I want to spend more time with my grandchildren. I also enjoy catfishing and trout fishing. And finally hunting! Did I mention that I like to hunt!?
