Also, if you need any savvy, talented part-time technology folks, SECC students are always looking for part-time jobs.

Best of success in your new endeavor.

i was going to post this as well.  SCC would be a great place to start.  the SCC job placement office might be able to help get you in touch some CNC'ers (current students and alumni).

on a side note, will you have a front office?  will you sell locally?  i hope you guys the best!

Lance, thank you for moving an arms manufacturing business to Nebraska.

But...I have a question.

Wasn't the spelling of "defense" in the name spelled "defence"? And do you intend to change the name to the more widely used spelling?

I recall the one Sabre Defence upper I have purchased being spelled with a "c" and it was a sweet shooting midlength that was very accurate. That rifle was passed down to my son as his first AR15.

Looking forward to the prospect of an NFOA roll marked Sabre Defence lower receiver  8)

PS What type of barrels can you produce? CMV Chrome lined? Cold hammer forged? QPQ melonite? I know Sabre was famous for their machine gun barrels and one of the first to use Chrome Moly Vanadium

Lance Kuck:
I start every reply on any forum I have ever been on with some qualifying statement about being slow.  So there you go.  I'll answer as best I can in order of the questions.  We have the drawings for the brake and it is a fairly simple piece to make but I have to see how it fits in to our plans.  We have really focused on the barrel line.  SCC has been somewhat helpful and we will continue to utilize them and support them in any way.  Too many kids go to 4 year colleges when we need more tech school grads.  Not sure what a psychology degree from UNL pays but I bet a tool and die degree from Milford is a hell of a lot better. (no offense to psychologists)  We did keep the "c" in defence, it was a typo but we have to be careful where we use that name and how we use it as Sabre still has some lingering problems that are in no way associated with anything we are doing.  ATF, DOD, and DOJ have all been very good to work with and they fully understand we have no relationship with any past employees.  I am working on chrome lining quotes but it is a dying product and expensive plus everybody that does it is in Connecticut.  Hammer forging is a beast all of itself and not on our list but melonite is as well as some other processes and materials.
Thanks,
Lance Kuck

Very nice... look forward to supporting a local business!  Keep us updated.

Psychology pays pretty well but you can pay off the student loans faster with a tool and die degree.
