It sounds like PTR, a manufacturer of rifles, intends to leave Connecticut because of their latest regulative law. Many in the government, like Senator Blumenthal, the US Senator from Connecticut says it won't happen but the head man of the company says that most of the workers in the plant have agreed to go with the company. That appears that Connecticut will lose some tax money from the 40 employees.
Colt also has its biggest plant there and wouldn't that tickle the Governor of Connecticut to see them pull out. Too many makers of guns and ammunition are located in the State and I really wonder how many may follow PTR.

I'm sure there are a lot of states that would welcome these companies. It would serve these democrap states right loose the tax money for their stupidity. The only way to get their attention is to hit them in their wallet.

I can't wait to see Colt take their huge business our of Connecticut. That would be a really big hit in their tax business.

Sanity will not return to this country until the boy president is GONE and takes all of his fascist pig friends with him.

The real problem, for me, concerning I Won is whether he will ever be gone without being thrown out. I will believe he intends to allow an election in 2016 the day they put my ballot in my hands.

I think it would be very interesting to see what kind of plans his czars in the White House have made up and are letting go one or two at a time. If we don't do something with all this pretty soon it will be too late. I still expect to see the EO that declares martial order daily.

You know that Texas is telling the gun and ammunition manufacturers to "come on down - - we got room for you". I think that Texas would be an appropriate place for these companies to relocate. If this did happen, I wonder how the politicians is Conn. would deal with the lost of tax revenue?

I will take a stab at answering that. As Ct. is a new England state I would guess--RAISE TAXES. After all that is how business is conducted in the Great North East.

Unless something has changed at Colt, they won't be going anywhere. The last I heard they stopped selling the 45's to the public, but I maybe wrong about that. I didn't look it up, lazy this morning. When most corporations find out if they don't suck up to the government and do as it wishes, or suffer consequences that could damage them, what do you think the corporations will do?
Colt's biggest business partner is the government so they will cave and be politically correct and kiss ass as I already think they have. Look for most of the major gun manufacturers to do the same. A corporation is like a living being, its sole function is its survival and it will sell its soul to the devil to survive.

I have found it strange that .22's are hard to find also. One possible explanation may be that many people own .22's and many of them could not afford to purchase higher power rifles, so they were forced to stock up with .22's instead.
Shotgun shells are still available locally in most places and single shot shotguns are relatively cheap even in pawn shops. I saw a box of 25 shells, I believe it was 12 ga. skeet for right around six or seven dollars the other day. If you want to see something interesting go to Utube and enter "wax deer slugs" and see what comes up. I think you will find the information interesting if you don't already know about it.

That was good. The reason rounds are hard to find and those calibers available are so expensive is DHS & others are buying at least 1.8 billion rounds..why does DHS need hollow point rounds not FMJ? Government gone crazy. These people HAVE to go.
Now the idiot in chief is capping how much $$ you can save. Who is he to decide how much $$ you need to save for retirement? So if you want it now they tax you...if you save for your future they put a cap on it based on what THEY think is reasonable. Earth to democruds, earth to democruds...please, somebody pinch me I think I am in the Soviet Union.

I am reminded of a friend of mine (Wink Wink, Nudge Nudge) who was robbed twice. When he was purchasing his next fire arm he asked the Man behind the counter what his opinion was on a small caliber weapon for self defense. He was also buying a gun for his daughter and was considering a 22. The man said, "when you shoot someone, you don't want to just piss them off. You want to stop them" My friend purchased two 9mm .
22's have a tendency to ricochet unless your an exceptional shot in a precarious position.
