We are proud to announce the Paul Howe Tactical Carbine, the first firearm collaboration between Wilson Combat and renowned author and tactical shooting expert Paul Howe. The Paul Howe Tactical Carbine combines the unsurpassed build quality and attention to detail of the gunsmiths and designers at Wilson Combat, and the 30 years of tactical experience that Retired Master Sergeant Paul Howe has learned as an operator and trainer in selecting his ultimate all-around tactical rifle.
"Were I to have the choice of only one gun, it would be the Paul Howe Tactical Carbine. I could do short, intermediate, and long-range work with this one rifle. It is like having one rifle to play the entire course."

Paul Howe Lightweight Tactical Carbine - 6.5mm Creedmoor
The first thing you will notice is our striking new Camouflage Armor-Tuff finish. This special finish has been developed to blend in well in many urban and rural environments. This exclusive hand-applied pattern reduces IR signature and also keeps the rifle cooler in high temperatures. The Paul Howe Tactical Carbine uses our peerless, match-grade, stainless steel barrel with deep lightening flutes and an Accu-Tac flash hider.
A Two-stage Wilson Combat TTU with heavier springs for a 4.5-pound trigger release-- an ideal weight for gloved use in an operational environment-- is standard. Paul selected a Daniel Defense fixed-front sight tower along with his CSAT rear aperture flip up for fast, reliable combat sighting. This special lightweight model also features a lightweight billet upper receiver for additional weight savings.
