DU Arms Manufacturing Moving to Barrow and Sheffield

BAE Systems Royal Ordnance finished its manufacturing of the L30A1 120mm rifle gun system used in the Challenger 2 tank and fashioned from US-supplied Depleted Uranium blanks. The manufacture has now moved on to the new site in Barrow. Production of barrels and breeches has also been subcontracted to Sheffield Forgemasters.

ACTION PLAN: If you live anywhere near Barrow or Sheffield why don't you pay them a visit and let them know you know what they are up to.
