Rideout Arsenal to Move Out of Virginia Due to Law Changes
Summary
Rideout Arsenal, manufacturer of the Dragon pistol, announced its decision to leave Virginia following Governor Abigail Spanberger signing HB217/SB749 and HB21/SB27 into law on April 13, 2026. The company cites HB21/SB27's vague "responsible conduct" standards for manufacturers and HB217/SB749's expansion of "assault firearms" and magazine capacity limits as reasons for its imminent relocation.
