Firearm manufacturer Smith & Wesson officially moved its headquarters from New England to Tennessee, earning praise from the NRA.

"Congratulations to Smith & Wesson on their grand opening in Tennessee. This move is a testament to their enduring legacy, their commitment to firearm excellence, and to the importance of preserving America’s gun industry and Second Amendment rights in a fair environment," NRA Executive Director of Advancement Tyler Schropp told Fox News Digital in an exclusive comment.

"Representing millions of NRA members and gun owners, the NRA was proud to be the tip of the spear for the passage and enactment of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act that saved America’s firearm industry," Schropp continued, citing the 2005 Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act that prevents firearm manufacturers from being held liable if products are used to commit a crime.


Smith & Wesson was established in 1852 in Connecticut before it soon moved its headquarters to Springfield, Massachusetts. Now, the firearm manufacturer calls Maryville, Tennessee, home after holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony Saturday at its new 650,000-square-foot headquarters.

Glad they moved to a friendlier environment.
 
They joined Beretta too, when they moved to Tennessee. My Beretta is proudly made in Tennessee where I use to live.

No but the owners would make more profit.

More profit could mean more taxes. Why pay rates to a state that hates your very existence?

Mexico, Mexico is not trying to restrict guns in the US

Maybe yes maybe no, but the deal is if there is any profit to be made then the Mexican Government and assorted cronies will make it.

Clarify please. As an aside, I once saw a rainbow from an airplane. So cool.

I thought they had made this move some time ago actually. I know Remington moved. I know Springfield was a hope for firearms manufacturing in the US, but not sure if there are any nonmilitary ones left.

why do you 'people' insist on trying to equate gang bangers killing each other with the emotionally driven appeal about 'the children'? And why is tit that all you people can do is shit yourselves over law abiding citizen gunowners when you cry about 'the children' but then never do anything about the culture in the black communities that is causing the deaths of 'the children'....

you know...


the children you dont give the first **** about....

You see a rainbow as if you're standing at a 90 degree angle to it - like if you drew an imaginary line from yourself to the rainbow, it would be perpendicular to it.
