As I am still new here on this Forum. I have a question? Are there any American
owned, American made Firearms left. I mean 100% produced with American Metal.
Or have we as a country dropped the ball on quality American firearms? Have we had our 6s handed to us by foreign entities? Maybe we can find the Answers here. At least resources to head in the right direction?
Henry, as mentioned above. If there's any small boutique-like makers, I don't know.
If this is about Colt I'll just say I'd rather Colt be in the hands of a a real gunmaker in a non-woke country like the CR, rather than some banker / investment firm, or owned by a woke country like Germany or the UK.
I have a 30-30 Henry with side-gate, bought it when they came out in 2019, and I love it. Perfect out of the box, and well-made. My first Henry, and my first centerfire rifle.
Also, isn't Smith and Wesson still American-owned-and-made? And I remember Sig losing its factory in Germany to "progressive values" or somesuch. It was announced, but I dunno if that actually happened. If it did, then while still German-owned, it's only American-made.
I do wish S&W would ditch the Hilary Hole. There's no more need for it.
Ruger states American made, but goes into no further detail that I see at present. I thought I had seen something from Ruger in the past as being totally American made.
Believe it or not my soon to be 69 year old momma carries a Charter Arms 44sp. My wife and myself met Nick Eckler at NRAAM Indy. He is a very down to earth guy. He introduced himself as simply Nick. When I asked about emblems from Charter Arms for my mom. He actually had a t-shirt sent to her from him. I thought that was odd how just a ordinary feller could do that. Then I googled him and lo-and-behold THE President of Charter Arms.
the Barrett Firearms .50 cal rifles are still American made as far as I know. I just checked and they are now owned by a company in Australia. So although the guns are made in America the company isn’t.
there are quite a few AR and it’s derivatives that are American made too.
That is what I was wondering. This is one of the many reasons why I love this Forum. A wealth of information. Sometimes the truth hurts. Not many of the American Steel Mills still operating. I use to deliver Cryogenic Haz-Mat to U.S Steel, AK Steel as well as US Steel to name a few. Damn times have changed.
