1985

Horst Blaser decided to sell his business (approximately 60 employees) to Gerhard Blenk. At the end of 1985/86 Blenk became the new owner of Blaser Jagdwaffen.

Over the next 15 years Gerhard Blenk led Blaser to become Germany's number 1 hunting rifle manufacturer. During this time the enterprise experienced its largest period of growth, with sales figures increasing constantly and the number of employees having more than doubled. The new factory in Isny is continually being extended as the company continues to grow.
In 1985 the model SR 830 was changed slightly, with the carrier tube being discarded.
