Zach Anderson
The Silent Partner Who Knows His Stuff
The OG Co-Founder and Your Go-To Guy for Personal Protection
Alright, folks, let me introduce you to Zach Anderson, our resident silent partner and the OG co-founder of River Valley Arms & Ammo. These days, Zach’s based out of state, so you won’t catch him hanging around the shop every day, but don’t think for a second he’s not still part of the RVAA family. He’s the guy who helped get this whole operation off the ground, and he’s still very much in the game when it comes to personal protection and firearms knowledge.
If there was a Hall of Fame for sharpshooters, Larry would have his own wing.

He’s the Go-To Guy for Personal Protection
Zach’s a self-proclaimed freak when it comes to personal protection. He believes that everyone deserves the right to protect themselves, and carrying a firearm is a solid step in that direction. Zach’s been around guns his whole life, hunting with his dad from a young age. So, when it comes to firearms, he’s been in the trenches for years, whether he’s teaching people how to protect themselves or geeking out over the latest gear.

Firearms? Yeah, He Knows Them Inside and Out
When it comes to firearms, Zach’s the guy to talk to. His full-time gig is as a co-owner of a construction company, and let’s be real—being an owner of a construction company means he’s got a deep understanding of how things tick. That translates perfectly into his passion for guns. Zach’s the guy who’s got your back.
Zach’s Pick: The Smith & Wesson 340PD
Now, if you’re wondering what Zach’s personal firearm of choice is, he’s all about the Smith & Wesson 340PD. Lightweight, concealable, and as Zach puts it, “it makes you feel safe and warm and fuzzy inside.” If you’re looking for a reliable piece to carry that doesn’t weigh you down, that’s the one Zach swears by.
So, whether you’ve got questions about personal protection or just want to nerd out on firearms, don’t hesitate to reach out to Zach. He’s always down to chat—even if he’s not physically in the shop, he’s still part of the RVAA family.
