About Schmeisser
Schmeisser is a German Mil-Spec arms maker best known for the AR-15 and its high-capacity magazines. At Keep Shooting we carry its signature S60 60-round AR-15 magazine plus two of its precision German-made everyday-carry tools.
A Name Built on German Engineering
The modern Schmeisser GmbH was founded in Krefeld, Germany by Thomas Hoff and Andreas Schumacher, two industry veterans who named their company in honor of Hugo Schmeisser — one of the most influential weapons designers in history, the man behind the MP18 and the StG44. Today Schmeisser is one of only four licensed NATO and German Armed Forces small-arms suppliers in Germany, an ISO 9001-certified manufacturer building Mil-Spec semi-automatic AR-15s and select-fire military and police carbines. That same factory discipline goes into every product that carries the name — all of it made in Germany.
The S60 60-Round Magazine
Schmeisser’s calling card is the S60 M4 60-round magazine. Instead of a bulky drum, it stacks sixty rounds of .223/5.56 in a quad-stack column body that funnels down to standard AR-15/M4 feed lips — the result is double a standard magazine’s capacity in a flat, bag-friendly package, with a glass-reinforced polymer shell and side windows for a quick round count. It drops into any Mil-Spec lower and lives happily with the rest of our AR-15 parts and rifles. If you’re weighing high-capacity options, compare it with the Magpul D-60 drum and ETS magazines — the Schmeisser is the stick-format answer to the same question.
German-Made EDC: The ARK1 Knife & Tactical Pen
Schmeisser’s engineering carries over to everyday carry. The ARK1 Assisted Rescue Knife is a German-made folder with an 85mm D2 steel blade, a self-adjusting liner lock, and the two features first responders count on — a tungsten glass breaker and an integrated seat-belt cutter — making it equally at home in an EMS kit or your pocket. Find it with our other folding knives and keep it near your first-aid gear. For a more discreet option, the Schmeisser Tactical Pen is a real aircraft-grade aluminum ballpoint with a knurled grip and a glass-breaker tip — a low-profile self-defense tool that rides in a shirt pocket, shelved with the rest of our multitools and knives & tools. For another German blade pedigree, see Solingen’s Böker. Every Schmeisser order ships from Keep Shooting with fast handling and our satisfaction guarantee.
