CALICO LIGHT WEAPON SYSTEMS

Beginning in October of 1982, California Instrument Company designed and built specialized instrumentation for the petroleum industry. Armed with a background in tooling and engineering, a totally new concept in firearms magazine technology was developed and in May of 1985, the first working 100 round helical feed .22LR carbine prototype was successfully tested. Eventually, an entire family of firearms was developed around this revolutionary new design. By June of 1987, the first 50 and 100 round 9mm "double helix" firearms were being produced. These robust weapon systems were hailed internationally as the next generation in firearms development. Enjoying worldwide success, Calico Light Weapon Systems now features a full line of calico accessories, like the world's only true speed-loader, making it easy to capture the full advantage of this unique design. Always looking to the future, Calico engineers are currently developing new weapons and munition feeding systems that take advantage..
