imschur Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I was searching for information on pre ban Eagle Arms and stumbled across this interesting pdf on the history of Armalite. Download it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DNP Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Well, it IS almost 4 years old. A lot happens on the web in 4 years. We'll see what we can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if the new owners have any business acumen? Evrything seems to be out of stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRiverII Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Lots and lots of out of stock. I did speak with a rep recently and he suggested the following thought. They got dependent on outside contractors and are in the process of becoming in house once again.. I cheer that thought. I'm tired of hearing the case of "...it's cheaper to buy from elsewhere and assemble it here.", for the simple reason that you become dependent on too many variables. Big man Mr. A and runner up Mr. B use ABC machining for part 1. Mr. A sees Mr. B quickly growing, and feeling threatened insists that he receive better care than Mr. B. ABC machining now becomes a player in the enterprise. I don't mean to be obscure I just don't want to name names. We see it in the news today with certain ammo manufacturers. We seen it in the gun makers realm as well. We're inviting foreign entities to dictate our production capabilities. I call BS at this point. When have we been held hostage in the world of production? I never really cared for the slogan Make America Great Again. We're already great and have been since inception. I like our attitude. In any event I'm upping my ante in the 308 class with a bolt gun. I will begin by looking at Armalite and their in house production. I realized I stood up on the soap box for a moment, it's easy do when you come from here.
