Tullytown, Pa. (Ammoland.com) – Kalashnikov USA , manufacturer of Kalashnikov style firearms, announces the company will relocate to South Florida.
The new facility will include corporate offices and allow for manufacturing, warehousing and shipping functions to occur in one location. The move, which will take place over the next several months, will not affect the projected 2015 second quarter shipping of the new Kalashnikov USA firearms.
“With the growth of the company, manufacturing requirements and the rebranding efforts now underway, Kalashnikov USA felt the time was right to move the headquarters where we can incorporate our new manufacturing capabilities,” Thomas McCrossin, CEO of Kalashnikov USA said.
“Our new facility in South Florida offers the opportunity to expand as we grow while offering customers increased customer support and firearms produced using the latest manufacturing technologies and materials.”
The new US132 modern rifle and US109 tactical shotgun are on target to be released by early summer 2015 incorporating the new Kalashnikov USA slogan “Russian Heritage / American Innovation.”

Comrade Kalishnakof died only last year in his native Russia. I wonder if this company had to buy rights from his family to use that name? Of course over there, the dead may not be entitled to Estate Assets Protection like over here.
They’re moving from PA because it’s now blue..
I’d guess it has something to do with Commies not being party to copyrights and patents, as is the case with cigar brands. H. Upmann cigars in the US owns the name, so some deals would have to be made with the original H. Upmann brand from Cuba should it be legally sold in the US with its original name.
Only the governor's mansion, and that has more to do with what went on in the locker rooms at Penn State.
