Me Like this:

"The company has grown rapidly, adding 250 jobs in Massachusetts since 2004. In addition to its Springfield headquarters, the company has plants in Houlton, Maine, and Rochester, New Hampshire. The company has nearly doubled its annual revenue, to $206 million, in the two years since Golden took over. All its guns, except for shotguns, are made in the United States, and Golden likes to point out that the factory floor in Springfield has plenty of room to expand "

You know, with all the cronyism out there in MA politics, you'd think they'd have found time to give MA manufacturers of firearms a free pass. Don't they like protectionism and not free trade anyway?

Why do you think S&W was the first handgun maker to get past the AG's handgun regs?

Now, if they would only take those damn locks off their otherwise excellent revolvers ...
