The last gun company in "Gun Valley".
Until WW II Remington , (and Browning) were the only gun companies not in the Connecticut river valley.
Massholes must be SOO proud of themselves, shedding those nasty jobs.

I guess Tennessee’s the place to be if NH goes sour.

I saw this earlier. All I can say is "Welcome to the south S&W".

I hate to be vindictive but I hope the loss of jobs AND tax revenue put a real hurt on the State.

Interesting in that I'd always thought of Maryville, TN as a liberal college town.

It is.

What's that tell you about Mass ?   

Now do you begin to see why I say " F--- Texas, I want that wall built in SEABROOK !"

Good on Smith and Wesson.  Except...it would be better if they were a little deeper south.  Say Arkansas-Oklahoma-Texas....

What cracks me up is all the politicians  saying how they are going to help the workers.... I bet most of the staff follows them down.

I doubt they pay well enough to justify that for any one but engineers, and management.
The actual workers will find new jobs where they live.

I heard that they were paying moving assistance  to every one, not sure how much, but I know damn well the cost of housing is half of what it is in mass.  Not to mention the 5% pay increase as tn does not have income tax
