Memphis, MI. (March 5, 2024) – Grace Engineering, proud owner of Montana Rifle Company (MRC), is excited to announce a significant increase in production for the classic bolt-action hunting rifle, Junction, driven by escalating consumer demand.
Built from the action out, Montana rifles are engineered, manufactured and blueprinted in the US at Grace Engineering’s headquarters in Memphis, Michigan.
