Ferfrans (stylized as FERFRANS) is an American firearms manufacturer based in Montclair, California.[1] It was established in 1998 by Filipino–American brothers Ferdinand and Francis Sy. Ferfrans was derived from the brother's names, Ferdinand and Francis.[2] The company was previously known as Ferfrans Specialties.

The company is known for their products based on the AR-series, especially the SOAR (Special Operations Assault Rifle), and their patented rate-reduction system called the Independent Sear Disconnector[3] (also known as Delayed Sear Activation System (DSAS))[4][5] or simply called "Ferfrans Rate-Reduction System",[6] and muzzle brake to improve handling at full-auto fire.[1]

It also has a service center facility in Cebu, Philippines, where the Sy brothers originally are from,[2] that supports their products in the Philippines and Asia.[1]

It provides weapons for the Philippine National Police and the Armed Forces of the Philippines, as well as several police units in the United States, and several countries including Malaysia, Indonesia, and Peru.[2]
