Did a little bit of digging on-line..but was correct on my previous post/..they are manufactured in Canada..see the link below.. https://www.grandviewoutdoors.com/big-game-hunting/whitetail-deer/rifle-review-fierce-carbon-edge/ "I asked Mogle how he can make these guns and sell them for that price and he explained, “I had a gentleman [Hugues Vaillancourt] approach me at my first SHOT Show I attended who said he could build the best gun in the world for the best price and I was like, ‘Yeah, whatever.’ A couple of weeks later, he flew me up to his factory [Nutech Industries] in Quebec … and when I went into his machine shop, I quickly realized that was probably one of the best machine shops in North America. “He’s one of the largest suppliers to Bombardier, he’s built at one time the Winchester Model 70 action, he has built parts for Marlin — I mean several big manufacturers in our industry — and has done so for 25 years. And so when I saw that he was a gun guy already and he’s got robots that feed his machines and he’s got the highest-end machines in the business, I was like ‘OK, if I am going to partner with someone, this is the guy.’” Mogle has many years of experience building custom rifles and, like many custom riflemakers, started making his guns using available components and assembling them in custom stocks. “In January 2014 we introduced the Fierce Edge. We manufacture the entire rifle. We make the action, we make the carbon fiber stock, we make everything,” he says. Everything is made in Canada except the barrels, which are laid up with carbon fiber in Utah. “The only thing we don’t manufacture on the entire rifle are the barrel blanks themselves and we get the barrel blanks from McGowen. They’re a well-known barrel manufacturer. They’re a match-grade [button-rifled] hand-lapped barrel,” says Mogle, who describes Fierce’s patent pending C3 carbon fiber process as something between what Christensen Arms and Proof Research do. “We do both the filament winding process and a hand lay-up process and we’re using a much higher modulus carbon fiber material.” |
