Our story begins during the years of the First World War, in Huğlu — a small mountain town near Konya. Our great-grandfather, Mustafa Çavuş, served for nine years as the army’s weapons repairman, also producing horse-cart wheels and tin stoves alongside his repair work.
When the war ended, Mustafa carried that craft into peacetime: instead of military repairs, he began making sporting and hunting firearms, inviting the townspeople to learn the trade alongside him. By 1962, that shared knowledge had grown into the Huğlu Hunting Rifles Cooperative, founded with 165 members — soon, nearly every household in town had its own gunsmithing workshop.
Today, Huğlu-made shotguns are recognised worldwide — including in global markets — as high-quality hunting firearms. At Husan Arms, we continue to follow in the footsteps Mustafa Çavuş first took, carrying his legacy forward with modern engineering and global standards.
