A company you want to continue to do business with...

Before leaving, the company has announced that they intend to bump up orders for Colorado residents in order to flood the state before the mags are banned.

Nope, it'll be as safe as Chicago and it's severe gun restrictions.

Magpul to give Coloradans priority on direct order PMAGS | Military Times GearScout
I absolutely want to continue to do business with them. Before this, I was happy to do so because they offer a great product at a fair price. Now, it's nice to see that there are still companies with integrity and morality, and that stand behind their principles. It's awfully nice of them to do what they can for their fellow Colorado residents and customers before their legislators take away their civil rights and treat them as 2nd class citizens. Hopefully the good people of the state remember this, and throw their elected officials out on their azzes in the next election.

On a side note, I hope Magpul selects my state as the one to move to. We have a much greater respect for individual rights, and our legislators have far more respect for their fellow citizens than the place they are leaving. Our governor, along with several other state governors, are working on them. Shout out for Magpul.

Now if only I can find some pMags for a non-gouging price... Will probably pick up a PRS stock this month.

Magpul | Unfair Advantage
Many companies are doing the right thing with respect to states that punish their citizens as a smoke screen for doing something about crime. They are not selling any firearms or accessories to law enforcement that are not legal for civilians in the state to own. That's certainly the right thing to do...I mean, if the leaders of these states really believe that "assault weapons" are really dangerous they shouldn't want them in the hands of anyone in the state...including LEOs.

Close the police loophole!

The Police Loophole

Many of these companies are leaders in the industry, making some of the highest quality parts and firearms available. It would be great if Smith & Wesson, Glock, Remington and Beretta got on board.

Another company throwing its weight around, though it may be a lightweight. As an example of bluffing, it should be pointed out that Jack Daniels brews whiskey in a "dry" county.
