On The Move: Beretta Leaves Maryland and Heads to Tennessee Over Gun Laws - Girls Just Wanna Have Guns

On The Move: Beretta Leaves Maryland and Heads to Tennessee Over Gun Laws - Girls Just Wanna Have Guns: Citing Maryland’s recently enacted firearm laws and the prospect of more restrictions, the U.S. arm of legendary Italian gunmaker Beretta announced Tuesday that it would move its manufacturing operations to Tennessee next year.

The move makes Beretta the latest maker of guns or ammunition to move all or part of its operations to another state because of tightened gun control laws.

General Manager Jeff Cooper said an early version of a statute passed last year by the Maryland state Senate would have prohibited the company from manufacturing or storing products in the state.
