Florida, produced Knight’s Manufacturing Co. (also known as Knight’s Armament Co.) SR-25 semi-automatic “Match” rifle; with these earlier rifles manufactured in the 1990s out
of Knight’s location in Vero Beach, Florida, prior to the company relocating to Titusville, Florida, after c. late 2001. The serial numbers of these Vero Beach production SR-25 rifles
