About Numrich Gun Parts
Numrich Gun Parts Corporation is one of the largest suppliers of firearm parts in the world, and for many gun owners it is the first place to look for a part for an old, obsolete or military surplus firearm. George Numrich opened a gun store under the name Numrich Arms in Mamaroneck, in Westchester County, New York, and soon focused on surplus military and commercial gun parts. The parts business quickly outgrew the store, and the company moved to West Hurley in the Hudson Valley, near Kingston, where it began publishing the parts catalog that became a fixture on gunsmith workbenches.
In 1951 Numrich Arms bought Auto-Ordnance, the maker of the Thompson submachine gun, largely for its huge parts inventory. Numrich later began making new frames and receivers, and in March 1975 it received ATF approval to produce a semi-automatic Thompson, the M1927A1, followed by a .22 rimfire version. Auto-Ordnance was sold to Kahr Arms in 1998. By 2002 the West Hurley site covered 38 acres with warehouses, a machine shop, a woodshop and a 100-meter range. The company’s current mailing address is in Kingston, New York.
