SW should just move its operations to ME or NH.S&W can just move AR production to ME where they build the 22 simi auto pistols and 1911's. This will put a bunch of temp productions workers out of work. There are not that many real S&W employees working on the AR production line. Some may move to ME and the others will be reassigned in the factory.
I heard Markey talking at the press conference about this....pathetic attempt to stay relevant in the group of the new insane left youngsters runing the country now.
Unless the park rangers are secretly making and selling those evil ghost gunsBreaking News: Springfield Armory agrees to stop manufacturing weapons in Massachusetts in 1968.
... that submarine would be great for joy rides!
That's the #1 reason they haven't bailed on the ungrateful city and state. Massive investment to build a new facility with rail freight access.I thought one of the reasons S&W doesn't leave MA is that they have their own foundry?
No thanks. Count me out. I spent hours each workday in subs for 3 years. They remind me of working in a sewer tube, with deepest respect for those that work on them.Me neither, but that submarine would be great for joy rides!
I'm sure that is a huge reason. Moving all that humungous equipment isn't a trivial task.I thought one of the reasons S&W doesn't leave MA is that they have their own foundry?
3rd leading cause of deathI read somewhere that Doctor mistakes kill over 500,000 people per year ! Shut down all the Medical schools in Ma. ?
and make sure they sell the old factory to an affordable housing consortium
Sorry, but runing is absolutely a word. Obviously, he meant they are applying runes to this country, for instance, with a Nithstang (also pronounced Nithstong, or nithing, depending on the region).Sorry, but "runing" isn't a word. Did you mean to say "ruining" or "running"?

Well, after all the demolition of all existing buildings, it would make one huge 40B development on that property.I am guessing you have never seen the facility at 2100 Roosevelt Avenue.
My first job out of college was with Honeywell Aeronautics and Defense (later spun off to form Alliant Techsystems, which in turn later spun off its sporting ammunition business as a stand-alone public company named Vista Outdoor). I was on the Aeronautics side, but did do some software work using the super computers of that day to simulate the effect of different designs of 20 mm armor piercing rounds when they impacted a piece of armor. It was a piss poor simulation, since you could only simulate a few thousand elements of the armor and even that took almost 8 hours of computer time. But that’s how I got to go to the under ground 100 yard test range where they actually tested the 20 mm rounds they were developing. It was in a suburb of Minneapolis and almost no one knew it was there (this was during the anti-war protests, so Honeywell kept their military production on the q.t.). It was an interesting experience to fire a 20 mm gun in a confined underground range.So did I, but I never wanted my own Polaris or Poseiden missile.

I still want one of those 20 mm guns. Much more practical than a Polaris or Poseiden.
I’ve always been jealous of this guy:I was working in where s+w did their testing underground range too.
I was on the wall in a hallway on the back side and kept hearing Bangs and thumps...I was like what the ever living f*** are they doing in there looked in the window and they're blasting away lol
I’ve always been jealous of this guy:
Honestly it won't matter... I swear I should do pr... 800 jobs or however many employees s+w has isn't a big deal in those states its virtue signaling where both sides can get a win...pro gun can say yeah f you we're leaving for a place that doesn't suck and anti gun can say we're tough on gun makers we kicked them out of the state. So it's all feel good bs. I doubt anyone at the plant votes anti gun so the only people it affects really are the workersI would love to see all gun manufacturers to leave states like MA, NY and CA and move to "free states."
I would love to see all gun manufacturers refuse to sell or service products to states like MA, NY and CA.I would love to see all gun manufacturers to leave states like MA, NY and CA and move to "free states."
I would prefer it if they just didn’t sell or service products to government entities in these sates, but continued to service private citizen to the best of their ability.I would love to see all gun manufacturers refuse to sell or service products to states like MA, NY and CA.
Are you more heavily stereotyping Toyota or Glock owners? What about someone in a Lexus with an H&K? (JKbut a Polaris missile would do a better job of breaching Nancy's wall than someone in a Toyota with a glock.
