AirForce Acquires Land in Texas for Manufacturing Facility Expansion

(Fort Worth, TX, 2/4/2013) Auto-Numatic Corporation has announced the acquisition of the remaining land surrounding their Fort Worth headquarters for a planned expansion of AirForce Airguns’ and BKL Technologies’ manufacturing facility.

The new building will house some of the latest state of the art manufacturing technology available. Since their founding, AirForce has remained committed to keeping production in the USA and helping to create some of those new Texas jobs.

“Made in the USA has always meant something for me,” said Auto-Numatic CEO John McCaslin, “Keeping the jobs in the US has never been optional, just like quality. You have to have both.”

AirForce Airguns has been innovating, designing and producing precision pre-charged air guns at their Fort Worth, Texas headquarters for over 15 years. AirForce is known for developing the most technologically advanced airgun shooting systems in the world and the is original and favorite black airgun. With a reputation for flexibility and legendary accuracy, AirForce Airguns offers a solution for just about any airgun shooting situation.

BKL Technologies was acquired by Auto-Numatic in 2009 and has since become the largest US manufacturer of mounts, rings and levels for rimfire and airgun dovetail rail systems. All BKL production is in Fort Worth using state of the art CNC machines and the highest quality US produced raw materials. With over 50 different styles, BKL has the widest and most encompassing selection of optics mounting options for airguns and rimfire firearms.

AirForce International was launched in 2012 to find and import the finest pre-charged pneumatic airguns from around the world for US airgun hobbyists to enjoy. AirForce International’s first line is the Cometa line from Spain. The Cometa Lynx rifle is the only pre-charged airgun made in Spain, a dominating European airgun producer.

Serious airgunning starts here.

well OK then ,

this gives me a mission, i go that direction all the time , but never have been on that street that i can think of. but next time i am that way i will have a look.

But, but, but they just expanded… 😆

The link I posted says it is the single facility for them in Texas….

So there you go 😉

Well, at least they made one statement that was true. Flexable sound about right! 😆

Walk,

I beleive PB might be suggesting that they do not make the guns there.

I might agree as if that’s an accurate address it seems a bit of a small facility to have offices and manufacturing.

Plus their loading dock isn’t the best set-up (ground level in a small parking lot with other vehicles).

No Sign on the building or at the entrance…. so it may be wrong address

They did just buy some more land…

They would have to make a new extrusion to make the top thicker.

The best thing they can do now is make it a right handed side cocker and only machine out on the right side to load. Left hand would be special order.

That would eliminate frame flex. The frames are flexing at the back of the scope rail and bottle collar.

Then they can work on making the ID of the frame the same frame to frame so bushings would fit better.

But then who would pay all that cash to get the tri-rail and the conversion rails… 😉

No kidding.

A Picatinny Rail is only common sense on the AF platform.

It is not like they do not have aluminum in that area to make it. They actually have to cut it away to make that puny rail on the cut
