CZ-USA announces plant in Little Rock, AR

CZ-USA has just announced a plan to build a $90M plant in Little Rock, Arkansas. It's expected to employ about 560 people and will (as I understand it) be CZ-USA's first North American factory!

Any mention of what products they will build there? Will they move, for example, their shotgun manufacturing from Turkey to the US?

That is wonderful news. More jobs and what I read pay will be about $22 bucks an hour.

At this point, I don't have any idea. You can rest assured, however, that I'll be working to solve that mystery!

The P-10 series are being produced in limited numbers at the first US based CZ factory, a smaller enterprise which opened in Kansas City just a year ago, but when the new one opens in about 2 years? Willing to bet what's most popular here will be at the top of the list, hoping BREN 2 and such, but we'll see.

Then something that I had read was incorrect. I had read that this is going to be CZ's first North American plant. Guess not, but still exciting news.

I may have to see if they have tours after it's open.

This decision on CZ's part I think is very smart. It makes me think they want to get a portion of the US law enforcement market as well.

THAT they have been after for years, but with little luck. With the P-10 and a US plant, I think they might have a better shot.
