Did SA and RRA cause the Illinois Firearms Manufacturing Association to roll over? They are the major financial contributors to the IFMA, but are only members of that organization. Don't get me wrong, I oppose that legislation, I'm just not certain enough that they are responsible for the compromise to drag them through the mud, at least not yet.
Still very uncool. I get why... it's business. I get it! I have a strong dislike for people that pick business over ethics though. This is like saying you sold your soul to the devil kind of junk.Looked to me like they negotiated an ammendment to exempt them from the legislation in exchange for their silence.

Pity... guess that Springer Garand, M1A and WWII-repro 1911 just got struck from the list.
Actually, I think thanks to 594 and WA's backdoor handgun registry most of my future handguns will be either EPL 1911's or bare-receiver AR pistols like the Gremlin.
sell outs
Jim, are you referring to the bill Ruger/Clinton days?Exactly, like S&W and Ruger..... years ago.
No M1A? Lucky for you, LRB and James River Armory exist. Might as well get an M14 made in the U.S with a forged receiver.Pity... guess that Springer Garand, M1A and WWII-repro 1911 just got struck from the list.
IF I can ever put on enough upper-body muscle, and find a stock short enough for my stubby little T-rex-like arms and overdeep ribcage that still looks reasonably close to milspec... my tailor curses every time I walk in the door because of how much work he has to do cutting down a Size 44- or 46-SHORT coat to fit. Life's "interesting" when you have a nineteen-inch neck and only like 30-inch sleeves... lolNo M1A? Lucky for you, LRB and James River Armory exist.

My tailor hates me too, all pants in my waist size are too long. Maybe a gunsmith could come up with a wooden stock that's a bit shorter?IF I can ever put on enough upper-body muscle, and find a stock short enough for my stubby little T-rex-like arms and overdeep ribcage that still looks reasonably close to milspec... my tailor curses every time I walk in the door because of how much work he has to do cutting down a Size 44- or 46-SHORT coat to fit.
