Mad River Firearms started its operations in Wolcott, CT in 2005 as a Firearms Dealer, Firearms Instruction and Firearms Accessories Dealer.

    We carry very little Inventory and Sell our Customers ONLY what they want and NOT what is just sitting around unsold on our shelves and what we need to get rid of.

    Our selection of Firearms are Brand New and Special Ordered from one of our many Wholesale Firearms Distributor’s from around the Country and delivered to the customer within a couple of days of their order. Most Firearms are available within Two to Three Business Days after the Order has been placed with us depending on the Distributor’s Availability, Location and Shipping Times.

    We also handle Firearms Transfers, either In State or Around the Country. Whether you buy your Firearms from us or an Online Auction Site or another Out of State Retailer or Private Seller or just need a Firearm Shipped out for you, for that once in a Lifetime Hunting Trip out West, We’re the one to call for all of your Firearms needs.

    We also offer the National Rifle Association’s Basic Pistol Course to our customers to qualify the individual for the Connecticut State Pistol Permit and also more advanced Firearms Training Courses to match the Individual Student’s needs.

    The Company Owner and Sole Proprietor is Anthony D. Zaccagnino Jr. who is also a 26 Year Veteran Law Enforcement Officer who Retired from the State of Connecticut in 2002 and is also a Federal Firearms Licensee, NRA Life Member, NRA Certified Firearms Instructor, NRA Certified Range Safety Officer & NRA Membership Recruiter.
