Smith and Wesson Factory Tour
I saw this and thought some here would like it. Nothing real new, but still interesting.

A very enjoyable tour. At 7:40 it shows a suppressed gun with a Gemtech on it. The engraved line along the upper receiver says “Saudi Royal Guard”. Very cool.

Fortunately, almost a billion bucks a year and over 2000 employees. Even the liberals won’t fuck with those numbers. Plus, the plant sits on a huge chunk of real estate in a dead city. That’s a lot of property tax. I’ve done the tour. Wicked cool.

They're moving everything but manufacturing to Columbia, MO.

"The firearm brand Smith & Wesson will consolidate all of its operations from Springfield, Mass. and other parts of the country to a 633,000 square-foot warehouse outside of Columbia, Missouri later this year."

It'll probably be a while. Just looking at that factory, it would probably be 9 figures to rebuild it somewhere else. The inertia is strong here.
