A growing number of firearm and firearm-related companies have stated they will no longer sell items to states, counties, cities and municipalities that restrict their citizens' rights to own them.
According to The Police Loophole, 34 companies have joined in publicly stating that governments who seek to restrict 2nd Amendment rights will themselves be restricted from purchasing the items they seek to limit or ban.
Extreme Firepower Inc., located in Inwood, WV has had a longstanding policy that states:
"The Federal Government and several states have enacted gun control laws that restrict the public from owning and possessing certain types of firearms...If a product that we manufacture is not legal for a private citizen to own in a jurisdiction, we will not sell that product to a law-enforcement agency in that jurisdiction."
York Arms, located in Buxton, ME released a statement following new legislation in New York:
"Based on the recent legislation in New York, we are prohibited from selling rifles and receivers to residents of New York. We have chosen to extend that prohibition to all governmental agencies associated with or located within New York."

True but if Glock and S&W stopped selling repair parts that might begin to hurt.
BTTT
These patriot actions made my YEAR! Thank you to these citizens. They are heros in the fight of the new United States of America’s civil war.
When the manufacturer sells parts to a distributer they do not know who the final consumer will be.
In some cases the manufacturer tells the distributor that if we catch you selling to (fill in the blank), you are no longer a distributor.
Can noöne write grammatically accurate headlines anymore?
Citizens are standing in line to buy guns and ammo, no store I go into has either. AT least nothing other than bolt action single shot stuff, and no ammo of any kind, except bird shot 12 gauge shotgun.
End result is that everybody makes a profit and Chicago does an end run around the embargo.
Fear has also prompted hundreds of thousands of previously gunless people to go out and buy firearms. The consequences of this are record sales and profits for firearms manufactures and empty shelves for gun stores.
Exactly! And while I appreciate the effort of the six firearms manufacturers who have joined the "boycott," I'm willing to bet that none of them do much business in New York, and therefore, they have nothing to lose.

Good.
Be great when they stop selling them ammo too.
In previous generations the answer would be- the people.
But with the now weakest generation America has yet seen- the answer is - not one thing.
Obama could Nuke Kansas and the worst he’d face is stern vanity posts on FR.
We are exactly where we deserve to be.

WOOOOHOOOO!
Ammo manufacturers should dispense 50% civilian and the rest government users.
“Get back to me when Glock, S&W, Colt and Beretta have joined in.”
You’re so right, even if only to make an example — Pick one. My vote would be to shut New York out!
“It’s movement in the right direction if nothing else.”
I like the concept, but we’ll just end up with police forces armed as ChiCom troops (though all the uniforms will be size “small”.
Any bets on whether it would result in government takeovers of the firearms/ammo industries and seal the deal of all out war until we were either subjugated or managed to replace the corrupt politicians?
Exactly. We don't quit supporting the govt with our money, and money talks; we don't make appearances at govt offices and protest; we don't even write letters. We release what little pressure we have, posting on the internet.
