Raven Arms MP-25
Overview
The MP-25 is a .25
-caliber semi-automatic pistol developed by George Jennings in the late 1960s. In 1970, Jennings designed the inexpensive MP-25 pistol and founded Raven Arms, which was also known as the original Ring of Fire company. A 1968 federal gun-control law
prohibiting the importation of inexpensive handguns prompted Jennings to enter the firearms business.
Before Jennings developed the MP-25, a friend who owned a small gun and pawn shop complained to Jennings, "I can't buy these guns any more, and I used to sell 500 of them a month." At the time, Jennings was running a machine shop that made parts for Southern California aerospace companies.
