Re: Think twice about Springfield and RRA
This is kind of like the gun store that took down the 30.06 and 30.07 signs when everyone complained. They aren't sorry for what they did, only that they got caught.
God and the soldier we adore,
In times of danger, not before.
The danger gone, the trouble righted,
God's forgotten, the soldier slighted.

They should put their money where they words are...and donate a big, fat check to the NRA, earmarked for fighting anti-2A, anti-firearm legislation.AndyC wrote:I'm just sharing their statements.

They knew what their lobbyist was doing. A big move on a stance on legislation doesn't happen without approval.

Intersection where crony capitalism meets socialist totalitarianism, and where those in the middle get the middle finger.
In a way, there's no ideological difference to me between this example and of LE groups supporting anti-2A bills, what someone here appropriately titled "rights for me but not for thee" here.
All maggots. Every one of them.
And as for RRA and Springfield, until their so called leadership is ousted without a golden parachute option, I will go out of my way not to purchase anything they have to offer, and urge others I come in contact with to do the same.

I'm gonna wait a little longer to see how far the SA prices drop before I pull the trigger on a new M1A, boycott away folks.
Chance favors the prepared. Making good people helpless doesn't make bad people harmless.

Sometimes I really wish a lawyer would chime in and clear things up. Do we have any lawyers on this forum?

Re: Think twice about Springfield and RRA
I don't see SA or RR coming out of this without a major hit and change of leadership. After reading the documentation, I will tell my students when asked that these companies have been caught supporting gun control by making large donations to such entities.

Re: Think twice about Springfield and RRA
Oh crap! I was all set to pull the trigger on a long coveted M1/A. I'm kinda wishing I bought it a few weeks ago, but I can't do it with what I now know.

Crap, gonna have a hard time justifying a new XD now
What do you bet they are propping up anti-2A groups in hopes of them creating another gun scare, so they can drum up more business.

Re: Think twice about Springfield and RRA
Dang, first they were exposed doing the dirty deed, then covered it up. And now got caught lying about it. That's about as damaging as it can be. There are only a few that can get away with lying and covering it up....................... hhhmmmm I wonder who that could be?
Just some guy's opinion.

It'll probably be a better quality rifle, to boot.

The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager
