Colt gave the finger to the civilian market.

Bad choices made by company leaders should matter.

What happened to the lie that more guns equaled more deaths. Where’s the blood in the streets, the OK Corral, solving road rage with a gun?

And anybody who can't connect the dots is a total freaking moron.

We got an American hating pimp as potus who hates white people and has done more to destroy race relations than George Wallace, and suddenly the idiot alphabet crime families are surprised we're buying more guns? Sheeeeit. I'm actually applying to buy class 3 myself.

In the past month, I bought one gun and 2 suppressors.

Yes, I have a problem.

Unions killed Colt again. Now if we could import some of those warehouses full of surplus guns and ammo from places like Russia and China, sales would go up another 100%.
