Sturm, Ruger &amp; Company just announced it\u2019s buying up the assets of Anderson Manufacturing, the Kentucky-based firearms and accessories maker known for its affordable <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/search?keyword=ar-15\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\">AR-15<\/a> platforms and parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ruger isn\u2019t messing around with this purchase. It\u2019s picking up Anderson\u2019s manufacturing facility, machinery, and skilled workforce \u2013 all aimed at ramping up Ruger\u2019s own production and expanding product offerings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis acquisition is an incredible opportunity to advance our long-term strategy and expand Ruger\u2019s capacity,\u201d said Ruger President and CEO Todd Seyfert in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruger.com\/news\/2025-07-01.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\">press release<\/a> obtained by GunsAmerica. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that bringing Anderson\u2019s \u201ctalented team\u201d on board will strengthen Ruger\u2019s position as an industry leader, especially at a time when other companies are pulling back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But with the acquisition comes the end of an era. Anderson Manufacturing posted a farewell statement on its <a href=\"https:\/\/andersonmanufacturing.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\">website<\/a>, saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cAfter careful consideration, we made the difficult decision to sell the company and close this chapter of our story. With the sale now complete, the Anderson brand has been discontinued and Anderson products will no longer be offered. As a result, warranty services on Anderson firearms, parts, and accessories are no longer available.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-see-also-retay-nbsp-ace-r-shotgun-review-nbsp\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/retay-ace-r-shotgun-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\">Retay&nbsp;ACE-R Shotgun Review&nbsp;<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The company thanked its customers for nearly 70 years of support, calling it \u201ctruly an honor to serve you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anderson\u2019s facility, based in Hebron, Kentucky, offered decades of expertise in both firearms production and <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-p320-exeter-aftermarket-parts-and-beyond\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"345\">aftermarket parts<\/a> \u2013 a sweet addition to Ruger\u2019s already wide-ranging catalog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/brand\/ruger\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-scoops-up-anderson-manufacturing\" title=\"Ruger Scoops Up Anderson Manufacturing\">Ruger<\/a> plans to integrate the facility and team into its broader operations to launch new products, expand existing lines, and grow its accessories business. Customers can expect Ruger\u2019s usual high standards of quality, reliability, and American-made manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Seyfert summed up, Ruger is doubling down: \u201cThis move reinforces Ruger&#8217;s position as a leader in the industry and reiterates my focus on continued growth, even as others scale back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"
