Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The M.O.A. Corporation Maximum, produced primarily during the late 1970s through the 1980s, is a niche but respected entry in the precision single-shot pistol market. Designed around long-range metallic silhouette competition, the Maximum was built to deliver rifle-like accuracy from a highly rigid, break-open pistol platform. Its design emphasized a solid locking system, interchangeable barrels, and strong chamber support to accommodate powerful cartridges commonly used in silhouette shooting. The pistol’s heavy, match-grade barrels and crisp triggers made it a favorite among competitors who demanded repeatable accuracy at extended distances, and its modularity allowed shooters to tailor the platform to specific events or calibers. Historically, the M.O.A. Maximum emerged during a period of innovation in specialty pistols, alongside competitors like the Wichita and the Remington XP-100. Production numbers were never large, as the model was aimed at a specialized segment of competitive shooters rather than the general handgun market. As a result, surviving examples—particularly those with original barrels, accessories, or uncommon chamberings—are considered desirable to collectors today. The Maximum stands as a reminder of the era when metallic silhouette shooting drove advancements in precision pistol design, and it remains appreciated for its impressive craftsmanship, ruggedness, and accuracy-focused engineering.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
