MSR Distribution — live catalog on Project Parabellum

MSR Distribution runs one of the smallest catalogs Project Parabellum syncs, delivered as scheduled file drops the same way MGE's and Zanders' feeds are rather than through a live API. A sync pass here finishes quickly given the size, and in practice it works as a niche or supplemental source rather than a catalog broad enough to anchor a storefront on its own.

Catalog and stock counts below come from an automated sync into a shared vocabulary, which is what lets the same UPC be compared across distributors elsewhere on this site.

Brands MSR Distribution lists the most of

MSR Distribution spells manufacturer names its own way in its feed, and we resolve those spellings to one manufacturer before counting. Follow a brand through to see how much of it MSR Distribution lists and which other distributors carry it.

Counts are active listings at the last sync. The list stops at MSR Distribution’s largest brands, so a brand missing from it is one we have not counted here, not one MSR Distribution does not carry.

What MSR Distribution lists most of

MSR Distribution describes its catalog in its own words, and we resolve those descriptions against one shared vocabulary before counting. A category below therefore means the same thing here as it does on every other distributor’s page. Counts are active listings.

“At MSR Distribution only” is read one row at a time: it counts UPCs MSR Distribution lists and the distributor in that row does not. The figures do not add up across rows, and none of them is a count of what only MSR Distribution carries anywhere — that would need every distributor weighed against every other at once, which these pairwise numbers cannot do.

Opening an MSR Distribution dealer account

Application steps

  1. Provide business ownership details for account verification.
  2. Submit a signed FFL and your state sales-tax or resale certificate.
  3. Include any state-specific dealer license your state issues alongside the federal one.
  4. Apply through MSR Distribution's website; the account activates after the FFL is verified.

Before you apply

  • The catalog's small size makes this a supplemental account rather than a dealer's primary distributor.
  • As an FTP file drop, updates land on MSR's publishing schedule rather than on demand.
