Topic - AMCO and Global Arms History
Posted: Nov 20 2021 at 10:21am By sleeplessnashadow
The Global Arms in FL wasn't the same company as the one who made the commercial carbines with the name of Global Arms on the receiver. The one in FL was also incorporated in Central America. They went out of business a couple years ago.

The AMCO who made commercial carbine receivers was a machine shop in Hialeah in the late 50's and early 60's. Their receivers were rejected by Universal firearms. Used by Bullseye after Universal separated from them. Also used by whoever Global Arms was. Who used barrels from MOCO.

I'm not familiar with the AMCO involved in surplus parts. I'm very familiar with AMCO the machine shop. Also very familiar with Global Arms in FL/Central America. I have copies of the lawsuits in Central America that ended their company. We still don't know who the Global Arms was who put the commercial carbines together with their name.

The names kinda make it like a "whose on 1st".

Tanks much
