Inc. plans to expand and create 500 to 700 new jobs, the companys president and CEO announced last week. But that expansion wont be in New England. Michael O. Fifer told the firms shareholders at their annual meeting last week that company is looking for an existing 250,000-square-foot building, and Fifer said he hopes Texas Gov. Rick Perry will give it to him. Fifer said Tuesday he planned to meet with Perry this weekend at the National Rifle Association convention in Houston to ask the governor for a building suitable for a plant to manufacture new lines of products. I wouldnt be surprised if he does it, the Fifer said. Ruger, which is headquartered in Southport, Conn., with a workforce of 2,100 and manufacturing facilities in Newport and Prescott, Ariz., plans to spend about $30 million on the expansion, and the company has narrowed the search for the facility to North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas.[/I] [B][SIZE=6]Why not Oklahoma?[/SIZE][/B] [/QUOTE]
