It thought it strange that a gun company was moving from Wisconsin to Connecticut, until I figured out what was happening.

I wonder how long it will take to mount a boycott of these products (at least in Connecticut)? Not long, I would guess.

Although I understand the potential economy of adding to an existing operation, nonetheless I am baffled at why any gunsmithing or related company would risk/ invest one PENNY in operations in ANY gun-grabbing state like CT — particularly when dozens of non ‘grabber states would bend over backwards to get those operations instead.

Because Wilson Arms deals in gun barrels rather than complete firearms or receivers, they are not subject to many of the worst of the emotionally based firearms regulations and laws passed in the last few months.

Just give it a little time.

Being from Connecticut.I would have to say that that was a damned stupid move I bringing a hated firearms business to Connecticut.

Where the hell has this owner been following the incident at Newtown?Doesn’t he know how our state Legislature just about killed our 2nd Amendment Rights to own so called”Assault Weapons”?

If I were to buy a new weapon or anything else.The last place I would want it manufactured would be Connecticut.
