Christensen Arms teamed up with Rick Ware Racing® and driver, BJ McLeod, to race in the 2020 DAYTONA 500® at Daytona International Speedway®.

One of the highlights for the DAYTONA 500 winner is the traditional victory lap. If you’re a racing fan, you know that a victory lap is when the winner of the race takes a celebratory lap around the track. We took a lot of those during the race.

On Sunday and Monday, Christensen Arms raced with some of the best drivers and fans in the world. During lap 90, BJ was involved in a crash that would eventually take him out of the race.

The outstanding Rick Ware Racing pit crew worked relentlessly to repair the car, but once BJ left the garage to reenter the race, he decided against taking more laps for the safety of himself and other drivers.

This race was Christensen Arms first time on the Nascar® stage, and we are thrilled to have made so many new Nascar friends.

Christensen Arms participated in the “Great American Race” with a great racing team, driver and fans. No. 11 Denny Hamlin might have taken the one official victory lap, but we think our No. 52 Christensen Arms car took 90 of those at the 62nd Daytona 500.

Feb. 7, 2017 | Sponsorship

Christensen Arms partners with World Champion professional shooter, Bruce Piatt for the 2017 competition season. Bruce, a retired New Jersey police officer, has won more than 50 professional world and national shooting championship titles during his 30 years of competitive shooting. His shooting accomplishments include, 5 time Bianchi Cup National Champion, 5 time SOF Tactical 3-Gun World Champion, 3 time USPSA Multi-Gun National Champion, and a 2015 NRA World Shooting Championship.

President, Jason Christensen said, “Having a shooter of Bruce’s level representing Christensen Arms in the 2017 3-Gun circuit is especially rewarding for those of us at the company. As a member of the USPSA World Shooting Team competing at the IPSC World Championship in Moscow, Russia in June, Bruce will shoot our CA-15 3G rifle.”

Piatt added, “There is nothing that instills more confidence in a shooter than knowing your rifle is hitting where you’re aiming. A sub-minute modern sporting rifle is a rare thing, but Christensen Arms stands behind their product with a sub-minute accuracy guarantee.”

The CA-15 3G rifle was developed exclusively for competitive shooting with input from 3-Gun champion, Bennie Cooley, currently sponsored by Christensen Arms. In addition to a sub-MOA guarantee, the 3G features a lightweight carbon fiber barrel with a titanium side-baffle brake, a full-length carbon fiber handguard, and weighs less than 6 lbs.
