Small arms are just one part of the US's arms. Anyway, I think he realizes already that he misinterpreted his source. Especially when he learned that county =/= state.rdx-fx wrote:

http://www.continentalmachinetool.com/firearms.html Continental Machine Tool (CMT, aka Stag Arms) maker of parts and subassemblies for a variety of small arms (M4, M16, M203, etc) much like LM&T above ... New Britain, Conneticut

http://www.hk-usa.com/ Heckler & Koch USA, manufactures the Mk 23 pistol, MP-5 SMG, HK416 (improved M4/M16) and a ton of other spec-ops geared toys ...Ashburn Virginia.
Summary: US military small arms are clustered around Conneticut (Colt, CMT and their 'feeders'), Illinois (LM&T, and most of the civilian AR-15 shops), Virginia (HK USA, General Dynamics), and generally the south-eastern USA for a 4th point of reference. not in the People's Communist Republic of California.
... hell, Barrett Rifles refuses to sell anything to California Law Enforcement because of their draconian anti-firearms laws there. Sierra bullets moved their entire company OUT of California for the same reasons (Sierra makes the bullets that go into the majority of match and sniper rifle bullets...).
Orange County filed for bankruptcy several years and the Enron scram probably did not help either, I hope "The Gov" removes the most useless state positions.
I have seen M1 Bradley's chasis on flatbeds in Columbus, Oh so they must be bulit in PA.Bradleys were either made out of one location in California or two locations in PA
