    Maybe they'll start building mag fed rifles too?
    When dealing with liberals, always attribute to malice what would ordinarily be attributed to incompetence.

    ... and, since they do what the people "want", they'll offer cartouching?

    Who said they were going to have to pay the tax? The cronyism they have received by not needing an FFL would most probably be extended to not having to pay the excise tax. FYI, that's a 10% bottom line profit advantage over EVERYONE else who actually has to compete in this market. Of course there's only one way to know if they have to pay the tax, ask them. I'll not be asking as I won't wade in that pool.

    Fizbo told me he would gladly step up to the plate but unfortunately he is banned for life.

    On the bright side you'll probably be able to offer CMP Tanker repair/refit product.

    Hmmmm 35 Whelen tanker .... I wonder if that would be a first.
