Interesting look at the technology, automation, and processes involved in manufacturing Surefire Suppressors.
I'm kind of surprised they're still operating in California.

Interesting, neat video. I too am surprised they are still operating in Cali.
The cost associated with relocating a business like that would be enormous.
It's manufacturing. California was once a global high-tech manufacturing hub (especially for precision and aerospace). If you ignore that it's a weapon part the stuff they make is just machines and machine parts.
RCBS is still in California. Sierra bullets left a long time ago, as did Bar-Sto barrels. Those outfits are tiny compared to Lockheed, McDonnel-Douglas, and Hughes helicopters.
Illinois' political insanity is driving many of gun valley's companies out (LMT and Les Baer across the river to Iowa) -- just as the northeast did to many others.
I guess in the grand scheme of things that all makes sense and relocating a business like this would cost tons. That all said, still interesting to me with the political climate out there.Quote:

Could SF survive on gov only sales? They probably could...
Just said it was interesting to me knowing how ‘anti” CA is. I don’t claim to fully understand politics and business, LOL.

Interesting video thanks for posting it.
