Smith & Wesson is leaving the leftist wasteland of Massachusetts after nearly 170 years. Guess where they moved.

It's about time.

One of the most iconic American brands, producing some of America's most iconic firearms, is moving out of the freedom-hating, anti-2A east coast.

So, on Saturday, they cut the ribbon on their new headquarters in Maryville, Tennessee.

The new 650,000-foot facility is part of the company's $125 million relocation plan.

Maryville is located just south of Knoxville, nestled right up against the Great Smokey Mountains, among the most beautiful places on earth. Pair that with Tennessee being one of the most freedom-loving states in the Union, and you've got a match made in heaven.

I mean, it's the home of Davy freaking Crockett!

It's pretty much illegal to defend yourself or enjoy blasters in Massachusetts, which was a primary reason for the move.

These days, Massachusetts has some of the country's strictest gun laws.

Two years ago, Smith & Wesson took note when lawmakers in the state pushed legislation that "would essentially ban the manufacturing of military-style rifles in the state," according to WBUR-FM in Boston.

"While we are hopeful that this arbitrary and damaging legislation will be defeated in this session, these products made up over 60% of our revenue last year, and the unfortunate likelihood that such restrictions would be raised again led to a review of the best path forward for Smith & Wesson," Mark Smith, the company's president and CEO, said at the time.

Smith & Wesson wasn't waiting around hoping for the best from a bunch of leftist politicians. The company announced it was moving to a red state that was more friendly to the Second Amendment.

The new facility is already demonstrating American excellence:

Smith & Wesson isn't the only company fleeing leftist states:

Smith & Wesson is not alone. According to The Epoch Times, "Tesla, Hewlett-Packard, Oracle, and Remington are also among the hundreds of companies flocking out of California, Illinois, New York, and New Jersey to business-friendly places such as Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Tennessee."

But while the rest of us are rocking our M&Ps, Shields, and classic revolvers that launched the brand in 1856, I hear S&W will still be making a special gun for their former neighbors back in New England!
