Just wondering.

Question:
Not a gun smith, but a factory that turns out 500 or more guns a year

Choices:
Yes I do live within 50 miles .
Yes actually more than one
Beats me, never thought about it
Not that close
No , no where near me

 





Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

I went with "not that close." I think - and I'm not even sure of that - Beretta and mayby FN have plants in Middle Tennessee, but that is 200 miles from me. Glock - in Smyrna, GA near Atlanta - is farther still.

If we're talking 50 miles as the crow flies, I have a bunch. (But via road, several of these are more like 55-65 miles.)

Wilson Combat/Scattergun Tech - Berryville, AR
Nighthawk Custom - Berryville, AR
Walther USA/Umarex - Fort Smith, AR
Black Rain Ordnance - Neosho, MO
Daisy (if BB guns count) - Rogers, AR

I just looked it up and Kahr Arms Greeley, PA facility is 105 miles from me, that’s all I can think of relatively close.

Connecticut had all the major manufactures…one by one they have moved out of State due to our crappy political climate here. I voted “yes I do live within 50 miles” only because Mossberg still produces their receivers here (but then ships to Texas facility where the rest is manufactured. Colt is still here but I’m not sure for how long.
I certainly don’t blame any of them for relocating….if I was a gun manufacturer I’d certainly enjoy flipping the State the bird and move!

I live over 50 miles to the nearest Walmart. Gun manufacturer, hahaha. I don't think there are any in CO.

I voted no.

I believe Stag Arms meets your definition of “major;” they relocated here a couple of years ago—right in town.

You've also got KAC in Titusville. Not sure how close that is to you but it's right near Cocoa.

My grandmother and aunt actually live right down tbe road from KAC. You can hear the gunfire from their test range.
