New gun from NAA

Don't get all excited, they don't have anything new. I wrote the subject like that for fun..LOL

Anybody hear any rumor of anything new? The other gun makers have some new models, why not NAA? I don't quite understand gun sales being through the roof so long as ammo is short. I'm not buying something I can't feed. In my case .22LR is not a problem as I have plenty.

Which leads to the frequent speculation about NAA doing a .22LR Guardian. To make us happy and compete with the LCP 22. I'd buy the NAA, but not the Ruger. Plastic, yecchh....

JMO, but I would think the unprecedented demands are keeping production lines completely busy on the existing models, for most firearms makers.

I?d have to agree with pietro

I've seen online that S&W is building a new plant in Tennessee, artist rendering of it, it's big and classy looking, not like you expect a factory to look.

Yep - S&W is reportedly (on the TV news) moving out of Mass starting in 2023, due to restrictions on the making of their bread-and-butter AR's & hi-cap pistols.

This is great news. Obviously, Massachusetts has all the jobs they can use, and don?t seem to care they are losing such an iconic business. I?m happy to hear it. We can always use more jobs in the south. Maybe the next one will be in Georgia. Ruger and FN have plants in South Carolina, Kimber has moved to Alabama, and now S&W is moving to Tennessee. If one more will leave the oppression of the liberal states, maybe they will start waking up. I doubt it, but maybe.

I'm sure glad all these outfits decided to keep it within the U.S. borders . Can't imagine buying most guns from foreign assembly lines and then the libs would have a field day restricting imports and that would be very easy to throw a wench into the works . If these dam states would pay more attention to the ever growing deficit and to a number of more important issues we just might get our monies worth in salaries paid to these numsculls in state and federal levels .

But OV, the politicians have seen the light, they know what is best for their state. Here is Illinois a few years ago, one of the state representatives from Chicago introduced a bill to out law the manufacture, or sale of "assault weapons" in Illinois. When she was told how many residents were employed by Rock River, Springfield, Armalite and others, her response was that "Illinois doesn't need those kind of jobs." Immediately one company ( I'm going to say Les Bair ) moved twenty miles or so west, across the Mississippi, to Iowa, and most of the employees just had a longer commute to their new job site.

S&W is moving just a few short minutes up the road from us while Beretta has been an hour or so from us for quite some time now. Firearms manufacturers can hardly find a more gun friendly environment than in Tennessee.
