About Us
Asheville Armory was founded in 1861 producing over 900 Enfield percussion muskets during the Civil War. By 1865 Union troops had decimated Western North Carolina with their campaign of terror and destruction which ended the 1st iteration of the Armory. The Second Armory started in 2014 and is still in continuous operation even during this unprecedented era of orchestrated political unrest and governmental overregulation which divides Americans to their core.
