Back in January, there was a story about Kalashnikov USA setting up a production facility in Florida. Pompano Beach, I believe.
The Kalashnikov factory in Florida is moving forward last I heard.
Kalashnikov USA was my first thought too. Not sure if they’re being made there yet, but they were moving to Bradenton, FL. Their most expensive commercial rifle is the “Modern AK”, 7.62X39, with polymer furniture, Picatinny rails, etc., for about $925 MSRP. Personally if they’re planning to go to a AK round, I’d recommend the (formerly CZ) VZ.58 currently made by Czech Small Arms and imported thru CzechPoint-USA. Awesome AK variant.
I had drinks with one of their sales reps... never heard whether or not the company made it. Guess not.
