Beretta’s five-century history—from a small Italian workshop supplying the Venetian Republic to becoming a major manufacturer for the United States military—offers a striking backdrop to its long and increasingly strained relationship with Maryland.

I think the 10-round limit is next on the chopping block.
An additional small observation: every business or operation was ‘new’ at some point. What follows is what is important.
I hope these folks see the writing on the wall...I would bet within two years HQ is gone too.
Beretta moved to the Nashville area a decade ago, so he’s a bit late reporting the news.
I watched the video. It doesn’t seem like the governor panicked at all. The guy in the video says he did, but there’s no evidence of it.
THEY ALSO GOT THEMSELVES A “JOB FREE ZONE”
I don’t think you understand Maryland. It is ruled politically by the high-population Washington-Baltimore area. (While 5 Western counties have been discussing secession.)
Maryland has many wonderful, right-thinking people, just like all states do.
As a long-time MD resident living here on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, the scenery as I type this is wonderful...
However, everything over my shoulder is straight out of the worst parts of Mogadishu...
Crime, violence, roving gangs, and oppressive anti-white government...
My EDC is still my Beretta 92F. Owned it for 30 years. It’s the one carry pistol I shoot the best out of all my others.
I truly hope Bruen is enforced soon before my sidearm (And other firearms) becomes even more illegal.
Anything of value in a blue state should be stripped out and sent to a red state - just based on general principle.
I think I do. Not enough wonderful, right-thinking people to keep the state house in order. This is how the new civil war will be won.
What took them so long?

Yea, we have some real shitheads here in TX too. Most live in Dallas, Houston, Austin and El Paso.
I’ve read a lot about cops being shot. If they are arresting people for no good reason,I’m starting to wonder about such places. Of course, Ive never had any desire to live there & sure don’t now. It seems to be one of those places that just offers too many problems & not enough answers.
Smith & Wesson recently moved here to the Knoxville area from MA.
Maybe the pols had their hands out but Beretta turned their backs on them. The pols in MD are not in touch with their constituents if they let Beretta escape to TN.
“I don’t think you understand Maryland”
.
The Freak State, that legislated a “Rain Tax”?
That was sort of a failure, given that some counties and jurisdictions simply refused to charge it:

Beretta has been manufacturing in the Gallatin, Tennessee factory for ten years this month.
Beretta doesn’t like to brag about this but you can stand on the roof of that plant and throw a rock* and hit the spot where Jonathan Browning, father of John Moses Browning, was born in 1805.
* But you really have to be able to chuck a rock.
