Anderson Manufacturing, a key player in affordable AR-15 components, has strategically closed its operations, being acquired by Ruger. Originally a precision machine shop founded in 1955, the company pivoted to firearms in 2009 after the 2008 recession and launched its own brand in 2010, becoming known for its budget-friendly 'Poverty Pony' receivers. By 2017, Anderson was the top producer in the ATF's miscellaneous firearms category, a position it held for four years.
