Pretty soon I'm gonna go broke supporting all of the weapons and accessories manufacturers who are stepping up to the plate.

Good for them!

They are, arms wide open, welcome here in the northwest. +1 for the 2nd yet again.

They will truly learn the adage of, "the problem with communism is eventually you run out of other people's money"... if/when they lose the tax revenues from relocating gun manufacturers.

I wish S&W or Colt would come to WA. I would be proud to work there, if the pay is competitive.

Hahaha

but has commitments from most employees to relocate.

The employees are saying "yeah let get out of here"
Perfect,not just the industry but the employees are done with this crap.

Good, Colt also need's to get out of Hartford, CT and S&W and Springfield Armory should bail out of Springfield, MA. Those states don't deserve them or their jobs.

The modern version of Springfield Armory is in Illinois (almost as bad as Massachusetts). The only thing left on the grounds of the original Springfield Armory is the museum (and a damn fine one at that). The rest is taken up by a technical college...

Sorry they won't.... not enough tax incentives and ole' homeboy Jay won't offer anything up.

If they goto Texas Ricky Rick Perry will probably be governor for life.

So far it looks like most are jumping over to Virginia or making the long-haul to Texas.

PTR Arms is moving (as is posted on their web site), but I don't think Stag has committed yet, although they are located in CT as well. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
