Firearms Companies in TN

[Defender]

Just read an article in Epoch Times talking about gun companies moving south.  It said we already have 20 and 2 more coming this year.  I hadn't realized there were so many here.

And I don’t see Anderson Mfg, Kentucky or Palmetto State Armory, SC on the list.

No longer in existence but don’t forget Tn’s own Ducktown Derringer company.I heard the owner became a millionaire from the sales and retired, but more likely shut down over lawsuits.

The 22 I’m talking about was just in TN.  The article named a few like Beretta, Troy Industries, and S&W but didn’t list anymore other than saying 22 total in TN.

Add Barrett and tnarms co to the list. I can’t remember the mfg but the Thunder 5 was made in Jonesboro if memory serves correctly.

Smith & Wesson in Knoxville, Beretta in Gallatin, and Head Down in Lewisburg are the only three I know of but that last one is not as widely known,
