This company has got its priorities right. They are pretty fearless.

Now, they have suspended sales to law enforcement departments in ban states.

http://www.examiner.com/article/magpul-suspends-all-sales-to-law-enforcement-ban-states

Magpul gets a lot of money from these law enforcement sales, so this is not a painless move on their part. Now, if other major arms companies would do the same (threaten to move to gun friendly states and limit sales to those available to the general public), this might actually put pressure on these ban states to reconsider additional restrictions on firearms.

This turn of events is not fair to good law enforcement officers in these ban states. Individual patrol officers are not responsible for the failures of elected officials.
However, the gun laws are even worse for the general public.
So, Magpul is going to come up with a sales policy where individual police officers can buy their products if they affirm to uphold the all parts of the Constitution, especially the 2nd Amendment. Anything to discourage or possibly roll-back these unconstitutional laws from being made, would be a good thing. IMHO.

On the other hand...

I don’t think Magpul will miss a beat if they restrict any law enforcement sales.

I think they are going to sell 100% of everything they CAN make for years to come now.

“This turn of events is not fair to good law enforcement officers in these ban states.”

Inquiring minds want to know, just where do you find “good” law enforcement officers today? Sure there are some, like these good and decent sheriffs who are standing up against the tyranny of our government in DC. But just look at the A$$hole who runs the Chicago PD. He’s the role model for the “modern LEO.”
Personally, I don’t trust any of them as far as I could throw one of them and I am way past retirement age! They will use your family dog for target practice and you too if you give them any $hit!
