Yankee Hill Machine (YHM)

Yankee Hill Machine is a Florence, Massachusetts based manufacturer of firearms and firearm accessories, such as suppressors and flash hiders.

[5]

History

YHM originated in 1951 with a small machine shop in Massachusetts led by Wallace Judd Graham & James Graham [17].

In the 1960's they got their first break with a government contract for M16 cleaning rods.

[6] The company was officially incorporated in 1975 and is still controlled by members of the Graham family.

In 1991, command passed to Wallace's son, then in 2013, to his grandsons Kevin and Chris Graham.

[9] [6]

The company currently (Dec 2015) has around 50 employees.
