The South East Asian Pacific Rim is not exactly known for quality products outside of linen, fresh fruit, and electronics. However, the Rock Island Armory company is one that is known for some very affordable and good quality firearms being based out of the Philippines by it's parent company Armscor. They make a variety of products but they are perhaps most famous for making 1911s in every caliber you can think of that actually work right out of the box.
So, as I mentioned in my mini-SHOT show review, I was pretty exited to hear that they are making a new manufacturing location down in Cedar City, Utah primarily for manufacturing their new VRF series of shotguns, if I'm not mistaken.
The big news on The Firearm Blog is that they just opened the Cedar City facility with a ribbon cutting ceremony just the other day, and will be starting up operations soon. Hopefully it's a huge success for them, not only for the community in Cedar City, but to having more gun companies in Utah, and for continued success for a good gun company.
