ABOUT STALON

SILENCERS FROM THE HEART OF SWEDISH LAPLAND

By hunters – for hunters. At Stalon, our story begins in the hunting grounds of northern Sweden, where a deep respect for nature and a desire to enhance the hunting experience shaped our path. What drives us is more than engineering – it’s a genuine passion for the outdoors, for craftsmanship, and for creating products that hunters can truly rely on.

Every suppressor we make carries the knowledge of decades in the field, designed not only to perform but also to preserve traditions and inspire future generations of hunters.

Stalon Timeline

From a barn in the north to a world-class silencer manufacturer.

  1. STALON IS BORN 1989 –

    Begins in a barn

    Our story begins in 1989 in an old barn far north in the Swedish highlands. In the middle of the woods, in a small village called Stalon, Daniel’s father is running a company. Instead of building a new workshop, an old barn was furnished for practical reasons. Firstly, the customers were industries in Northern Sweden, but the basis increased, and larger clients like IKEA ordered work. At that time, we manufactured precision parts for entrepreneurs like Volvo and Koenigsegg.

  2. RETURNEE 1999/2000 –

    Daniel moves home

    Daniel’s father ran the company alone for about a decade until Daniel finally decided to move home. He entered the business with target of one day running the company himself. At this time, there were no employees, and it was hard to get a full salary. Daniel was a welder and could enlarge the customer base with more lego welding. During this time, the barn/workshop was rebuilt and got a staff room. The renovation was done in 2002. One had by that time invested in a CNC machine - worth more than one and a half times the company's revenue.

  3. LOVE 2003 –

    Maria is connected

    In 2003 Maria was connected to the company. Production and manufacturing had previously been the main priorities. But with Maria’s help, more focus was held on service in different shapes, marketing, and other important administrative assignments. Maria had experience and knowledge in accounting - which became her focal task, in combination with production.

  4. HIRING 2004 –

    First part-time employee

    During the years 2004 to 2005, the power station in Stalon was rebuilt. Stalon AB had staff to rent for the workforce throughout the construction. One could hire the first part-time employee.

  5. THE SILENCER 2007 –

    Stalon & Stalon Light

    Firstly there was a question, and then there was an idea. The knowledge was there. The workshop was there. The machines were there.

  6. THE DECISION 2008/2009 –

    Simple decision

    By the year-end of 2008/2009, Daniel and Maria had decided. It was time to put all focus on manufacturing silencers for hunting and shooting. For many years they had searched for their own product, so the decision was easy. Stalon Compact was born as the first self-designed silencer. Stalon and Stalon Light were remade to Whisper. These two basic models still exist but in different shapes. By this time, the assembly was only a desk and all supplies were within reach. The desk also acted as more or less stock.

    And yes, we are still in the barn. An old image of the barn to illustrate and show the development and growth of Stalon AB/Stalon silencer.

  7. GERT 2010 –

    Hiring Gert and rebuilding

    In 2010 Gert was hired at 75% but always working more hours - and he still works at Stalon. Daniel and Maria didn’t know how much they could promise, and they wanted to be sure that they had enough work to hire. Times were still insecure, and they didn’t know how much they would produce for the bigger clients. Maria and Daniel still didn’t get a full paycheck.

    This year the first substantial rebuild started and was finished in 2012. Daniel and Maria did a lot of work by themselves - and had two little boys at the same time. This is an epoch filled with renovations, that are still ongoing.

  8. STAFF 2011 –

    More staff

    Since 2011 new employees have been recruited every year. Ulla, still among us (part-time retired), started in 2011. After that, new faces have been added yearly and a majority of these still work at Stalon. It was relieving for Maria and Daniel to hire, but they are still grateful for the experience of literally living at the company. They consider experience as knowledge..

  9. W-SERIES 2015 –

    Whisper becomes W

    Do you remember Whisper, the first self-designed silencer? In 2015 an update of Whisper was launched and became W. This silencer had the first golden ring, which is Stalon’s signature today. Between the years 2015/2016 the factory was rebuilt again, and a new staff room was done.

  10. KING CARL GUSTAF 2018 –

    Visited by H.M The King

    In 2018 we got the honor to welcome Sweden's monarch, Carl XVI Gustaf, to our factory in Stalon. It was a Saturday in the colder February, and we’re very proud and happy about this visit.

  11. BUILDING 2021 –

    The factory

    The latest rebuild was started in 2021 and was finished in the autumn of 2022. There is a total of six CNC machines in the building today. One single of these is worth more than Daniel's first investment. The factory has a capacity of producing nearly 100 thousand silencers a year. Today, Stalon silencers are shipped to customers in Sweden, Scandinavia, Europe, and other parts of the world. All of this happens in Stalon; a small village with 30 inhabitants, without mobile coverage, amongst a small gravel road in the middle of the woods. All this because two persons refused to give up their dream.

  12. FUTURE 2024 –

    From barn to industry

    What was once a barn is today an industry that manufactures silencers for hunting and shooting with one purpose - to give hunters an indescribable hunting experience. Here, passion for hunting, wilderness, animals, and nature are pursued in perfect symphony with modern technology, immense knowledge, and northern mentality. The barn is still left in the heart of the factory - if yet been reconstructed - but somehow constitutes the core of Stalon AB. It testifies to willpower, patience, and belief in the future. At the same time, it takes us back to basics where an eye for detail, honesty, and quality are the main partners.

    Future

Built by Hunters,
Driven by PASSION

At Stalon, we are not just engineers and manufacturers. We are hunters. We are shooters. We are outdoorsmen and women who understand what equipment truly means when you are standing in the forest at dawn, long before the first shot is ever taken.

Our products are developed in Sweden, shaped by Scandinavian hunting traditions and real-world experience. Every suppressor we design is built on firsthand knowledge. We don’t design for laboratory numbers alone. We design for reality.

Built by Hunters, for Hunters

Hunting is not just a market to us; it is part of who we are. We test our products in the environments where they are meant to perform: dense forests, open landscapes, driven hunts, and high seats in winter conditions. That perspective influences everything we do.

We focus on achieving optimal sound reduction without compromising handling. We engineer silencers that reduce recoil significantly while preserving balance. Because we know that performance is not just about decibels – it’s about control, confidence, and consistency.

Innovation With Purpose

From early development to modern precision manufacturing, our ambition has always been clear: to refine what a silencer can be. Expectations have evolved over the years, and so have we. Today, we aim for advanced sound reduction combined with lightweight, practical design; pushing performance forward without sacrificing usability.

Every component is carefully designed and manufactured with attention to detail. Precision matters. Durability matters. But above all, trust matters.

More Than a Company – A Family

Stalon is more than a workplace. We are a team that shares knowledge, passion, and responsibility. Many of us have grown within the company. Some have been here from the beginning. Together, we have built something that feels less like a corporation and more like a family.

We celebrate successes together. We solve challenges together. And we hold each other to high standards because we care about our work, about our customers, and about the hunting community we are part of.

That sense of unity extends beyond our walls. Our distributors, partners, and customers are part of the extended Stalon family. When you choose Stalon, you choose a product built by people who genuinely stand behind it.

Rooted in Sweden. Trusted Worldwide.

From our home in Sweden, we supply hunters across the world who demand reliability and performance. No matter where our silencers are used, the foundation remains the same: Scandinavian design principles, technical precision, and real hunting experience.

Stalon is built on passion, responsibility, and respect for the hunt.

And we are just getting started.

Because behind every product, there’s a team.

Expanding Our Factory – Built for Growth and Precision

Over the years, Stalon has grown steadily, and so has our factory. What started as a focused production facility has been expanded multiple times to meet increasing global demand. Each expansion has been a step forward in technology, efficiency, and capacity.

Today, our manufacturing facility is built to produce close to 100,000 silencers per year. That capacity reflects not only growth, but also the trust hunters around the world place in our products.

Despite scaling up, our mindset remains the same. We continue to combine advanced manufacturing with hands-on experience, ensuring every silencer that leaves our factory meets the standards we demand ourselves.
