Sounds like a good way to lose a business that employees your citizens. Way to go Germany.

CEO Of U.S. Gun-Maker Faces Jail In Germany

What a hot mess.

You would think he would have been smarter than that. I wonder if he will go to Germany to face trial. I can't see any path forward where the CEO keeps his job.

No laws broken. The guns went from Germany solely to the USA exactly as described in the documents. THEN they went to Colombia. Prove they didn't open the boxes in the USA.

Kind of like proving you didn't have a trigger lock on that pistol you sold.

"A Sig Sauer attorney contended that the deal had the blessing of the Obama administration."

If I were Sig I would refuse to provide arms to any German entity and any provided to NATO comes with requirement that they can not be used by Germans. In fact the best way for the firearms community is to tells these Governments to go do it themselves and buy Russian and Chinese crap because no one is providing you anymore.
Might be interesting to see how long the government stands when they have no arms or bullets.

considering how draconian Europe as a whole is getting I'm surprised that a new Hilter hasn't risen. Only a matter of time now.

The problem is, money talks. Businesses exist to make money and .gov or .goverschnitzel contracts are where its at for big sums of guaranteed money.

True that. That is until the said government takes over and pushed the private owners out. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see that soon over there.

Absolutely. The more of those companies that come here to set up shop, the better.
