About Umbrella Armory

Umbrella Armory began when a group of high school friends started playing airsoft together in Yorba Linda, according to the company’s website.

What started as a hobby and shared interest in war movies and airsoft equipment eventually developed into a business focused on improving the performance of airsoft gear.

Over time, founder Jordan Pham became the primary technician for the group’s collection of replicas. The team, comprising more than 16 friends, eventually developed into a business offering technical services in Chino.

The company develops high-performance airsoft rifles, produces aftermarket components and accessories, and collaborates with partners on research and development to improve airsoft technology.
