[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 794126, member: 10291"] I think that this thinking might be flawed. I live in the Northeast because of my employment circumstances and absolutely despise the politics of these liberal, ******* politicians that don't know which end of a gun the bullet comes out of. Savage resides in Massachusetts which has gun laws that aren't a whole lot different from NY and the politicians are trying to expand the laws to be similar or worse then NY. Are we going to boycott Savage if they choose to stay or sell to the government? It's one thing for a company the size of Magpul to pull up and move to another state, but it will likely bankrupt a company the size of Remington or Savage, or Colt to pull up roots and move everything to another state. What about the employee's skill's and retraining, or relocation?. Building a new plant, moving equipment etc.ect. What if Remington decided to move to Colorado 20 years ago because of NY politics? Who would of thought the rats would have infected their political system. If you think your state is immune, think twice. Boycotting Remington does not seem like the way to fight this disease. They, and other companies based in enemy territory may be an important ally and prove useful. If the government wants to strengthen them with 80M, that might not be bad. What if they went to AI for the sniper rifles because no American based company would sell them? Liberals would love it if we boycott Remington. It gives them control. Divide and conquer! Instead of wasting our energy on this we need to place it where it matters or we will continue to loose this war on our rights. Only 5% of 60+ million gun owners belong to the NRA or other lobby group. If 25% belonged, we would even be talking about this! iMHO. [/QUOTE]
