Opening in 2015

Beretta U.S.A. Corp., located in Accokeek, Maryland, announced today that it has decided to move its manufacturing capabilities from its existing location to a new production facility that it is building in Gallatin, Tennessee. The Gallatin facility is scheduled to be opened in mid-2015. Beretta U.S.A. had previously planned to use the new Gallatin, Tennessee facility for new machinery and production of new products only.

*snort* I remember the thread where some insisted that they would still keep some production in Maryland no matter what. I said "no way".


There was this gem: http://forums.somd.com/threads/267832-Beretta-Leaves-Maryland?p=5100624&viewfull=1#post5100624 :killingme


Wonder what ole Mike "Beretta Isn't Going to Leave" Miller has to say now? What a buffoon.

I thought Steny said that. "If I can get people to vote on SB281 with Beretta in my district...." or something like that.

Also, this is only for new stuff. They'll still be making the M9 there to meet contract obligations with the US Military.

They are quite clearly moving it all..specifically including M9 production. They are only going to run out current contract M9s at the MD plant. (duh..it will be a while before the new facilities are built).

“While we had originally planned to use the Tennessee facility for new equipment and for production of new product lines only, we have decided that it is more prudent from the point of view of our future welfare to move the Maryland production lines in their entirety to the new Tennessee facility,” Cooper added.

Yup, went back and read it again. they still plan on keeping some folks here though.
Beretta U.S.A. has no plans to relocate its office, administrative and executive support functions from its Accokeek, Maryland facility.

Good for them, but I hope they at least offer their current employees a chance to move as well.

Won't be but a handful of people...and I would expect they'll eventually end up closer to DC like the local satellite offices maintained by so many other defense contractors.

Key folks are always offered a job at the new location when these moves occur. For many, however, the costs of a move are prohibitive.

They've been working towards this for a few years now. Why stay in this stupid state when they'd have a hard time selling guns and having to pay out of sight taxes. Glad they've decided to move. owemalley and his buddies don't want them here.

Um, I wouldn't tell someone they don't have a life, you've spent how much time figuring out how many post someone on here made in a day and then followed them around the site responding to them.

Maybe you should take up a hobby, like skydiving without a parachute.
