Where are "american" guns and bullets manufactured?

[Renew Deal]

Do they contain any non-US materials? I wonder how certain audiences will react if the price of their hobby significantly increases.

1. I think the gun supplier of the world is the US. We love guns almost as much as fossil fuels.

Ammosexuals have taken over America.

Nickel plating chemicals for casings
Antimony sulfide, Barium nitrate, and other chemicals for wet or dry primer materials production

3. munitions and arms are domestically produced.....

Under laws going back to ww1.

That doesn't mean that raw materials don't come from elsewhere. Metals, some electronic components, plastics, could come from anywhere.

But not to worry, hegs will just stop buying them altogether. What better way to cripple the country than put the defense industry under?
