Watch Magpuls response closely

[Links2k]

Magpul has earned my business for many years to come for taking a stand against the left-wing extremists in their state!

I've been a Magpul whore for several years now. The only other mags that I've owned came with my ARs and were sold or given away. They already had my money locked up.

[rugerla1]

I'm going to order more Pmags, backorder be damned! So proud of them and hate they have to do this and hate it for the citizens of CO!

[G27]

If Magpul doesn't do any of the injection-molding in-house, the move could actually be quite easy.

 

Also, unless I missed something, this will have to pass the senate and be signed by the governor before Magpul pulls up roots...

Yeah, but read somewhere the folks that do it are also in CO, and Magpul included them in the lost revenue/jobs, so seemed as they wouldn't use them.

Yeah, but Dems have majority there too, don't know by how much. And the Guv has stated he's behind the bill, so seems no prob with him signing it.

My GF and I have considered relocating to CO in the future. It's off the list now.

"Denver-based Alfred Manufacturing, announced Friday afternoon that if the measure passes, the company will leave the state."

 

Looks like Magpul's supporting businesses agree with the move.

 

"Alfred also said that the bill has caused him to freeze a planned expansion of plans in Colorado."

 

 

Looks like they make quite a bit more than just pmags as well.

FYI, the CO Senate has 20 Dems to 15 Repubs.  18 is a majority vote.

 Yah, but my point is getting those contracts in place (assuming they've not already done so) would likely be easy - they could literally have zero down time in manufacturing if all they have to to 'move' is the offices & warehouse and associated shipping equipment.

Yah, just saying there's more to it - it's not a done deal. Didn't know the gov was openly supporting it, thanks.

Must not have read my last post. Their biggest Injection Molding Company contractor is leaving with them. A company that does a lot more than injection molding, and has been in Colorado for 68 years.

Are you guys going to boycott Remington if they don't move out of New York State?

They're still head quartered in New York but in the last 11 years all their new facilities have been located out of New York. There is a big facility in Mayfield, Ky.

[Oh Shoot]

Nope, Remington's headquarters are in Madison, NC for a good while now.

Yeah, didn't take till I saw 2.ooohhh's followup, sorry.

[KaNuckles]

Dems think they are bluffing. Check out what this a-hole said. Childish....

I sent an e-mail to Alfred; gave them kudos, and suggested that they may want to look at TN... just sayin'...

Colorado will go red next time. There anti-business stance will hurt them. I wonder if South Park will do a show on this? :D

I really hope so. I don't think those guys are very pro-2A though, just based on the way they portray the crazy gun owning uncle.

[mikegideon]

It's going to be interesting to see the outcome on this war on guns. I can't imagine the dems getting a positive swing in votes over it.

I wouldn't count on it. CO has been California-ed. It has taken in tons of folks fleeing CA who then vote the way they did before and ruin CO by turning it into what they left behind.

[Guest AmericanWorkMule]

where are you finding gas, ammo, and beer that cheap?   :up:

 

Just my opinion. That and $3.19 will get you a gallon of gas.

You're right. I probably should have said "may". But I would like to think those who fled Cali had some sense. Maybe not.

Sorry but I highly doubt it. I don't imagine any of the swing states will go red anytime soon. The GOP is all but dead.

No shit. Good thing the gun grabbers are coming to their rescue.

[Guest RevScottie]

Sad thing is a lot of people are likely to lose their jobs. I wonder if Magpul or its supporting vendors will offer to pay to relocate their employees? That will tell a lot about what kind of company they are.

I hope TN would welcome them with open arms and give a new home to there current employees and give more TN residents new full time jobs!
