Ryan McMillan’s resume is insane. He was born into a firearms dynasty, has a degree in physics, was a U.S Navy SEAL, and started one of the most elite American-made custom rifle stock companies in existence. McMillan sits down with Black Rifle Coffee Co.’s Evan Hafer to talk about the company his grandfather started in 1973. You may have heard of it: McMillan Fiberglass Stocks.
The company and his grandfather, along with the US Marine Corps, created the modern sniper rifle. Ryan talks about what it felt like to use some of the rifles his grandfather and uncle designed on sniper ops while deployed in Afghanistan as a member of SEAL Team 2 in the early 2000s.
They also dive into how McMillan finally got his physics degree and continued his family's legacy by building the Grayboe custom rifle stock company with a mission to make mass-produced, affordable stocks with a quality never before available to regular shooters.

Saturday Sep 30, 2023
Saturday Sep 30, 2023
Retired SEAL and author Ephraim Mattos was shot in the calf while volunteering as a medic with the Iraqi Army as he was transitioning out of the Navy. It was all caught on camera and went viral.
He recovered from his wound, and ever since, he's been working constantly to continue a life of service and to help people who need it most in some of the most violent places on the planet. That's why he started Stronghold Rescue & Relief, a non-profit built to give aid to people in literal war zones.
Mattos sits down with Black Rifle Coffee Co.'s Evan Hafer to talk about his new mission in life, what it's like to know he'll be heading into heavy combat in Burma in the next couple of months (and whether or not he's armed on these missions), that unique struggles people are facing in that country, the trials and tribulations faced by GWOT veterans of all stripes, and lots more on this week's Black Rifle Coffee Podcast.
