Edgar Sherman & Jared Hillis - Edgar Sherman Design

In this episode of the Big Tex Ordnance podcast, hosts Ike and Ian speak with Jared and Edgar from Edgar Sherman Design, a U.S. manufacturer of tactical rifle slings and accessories. Edgar discusses founding the company while studying industrial design and pursuing his passion for serving in the military. After being medically disqualified from service, he combined his interests in design and supporting military members. Jared recounts his sales background in the firearms industry and decision to join Edgar's small but rapidly growing team.

Throughout the wide-ranging conversation, Edgar and Jared stress the importance of American manufacturing and Barry Amendment compliance in providing quality gear users can trust. They share funny stories about scrambling to source American-made tags and bonding with local suppliers. The hosts and guests also touch on the need for industry collaboration, taking feedback, constantly refining products, the New England defense business ecosystem, and plans to expand beyond just slings.
