Good. Come here.

[Norm Lenhart]

The more I think about this, the more I think the old model should be done again.

Build company towns. I’m sure Texas, AZ and a couple other western states have legislatures to ram the laws through. Get several related businesses together and do it. One for Colt, One for the others. Spread around.

Make them attractive to build with tax and environmental exceptions. And watch them boom.

About FREAKING TIME.

Leave the socialist hellhole that Connecticut has become ASAP.

And bring those 700 UNION jobs to a right-to-work state.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

I’d leave, too. Come to Wisconsin! We’ve got plenty-o-raw materials for you to work with and lots of decent, hard-working, unemployed machinists that could use a JOB!

Governor Scott Walker? Please pick up the white Courtesy Phone in the Lobby!

[3Fingas]

Please come here to Texas. I want a 6920 so bad, but I always feel conflicted about buying a firearm from businesses whose taxes support Northeast politicians who are tying to infringe on our 2nd Amendment rights.

[Flycatcher]

Getting tired of this "may" leave talk.

Quit talking and start walking. Now.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

No, Move to Georgia.Kennesaw to be exact where it is mandatory that every household has a gun.very low crime rate too.I just cant figure out why...

[broken_arrow1]

Ya’ll come down to Texas - we’d welcome Colt Mfg. with open arms!

[kempo]

Why does any company that has anything to do with manufacturing firearms or accessories for firearms base their company in a blue State?

[FlyingEagle]

Texas, bring it on

[mylife]

Agreed

[dhs12345]

I would have said move to Colorado but forget that idea.

[Still Thinking]

“At some point, if you can’t sell your products … then you can’t run your business,” Veilleux told Fox News. “You need customers to buy your products to stay in business.”

Valid, but far from complete. As an owner or even an employee of a freedom-oriented business, how can it not stick in your craw for fascist tyrants to derive benefit from your work? Every day you go to work, you enable their tyranny. How is it just that they get to be tyrants in general, and to demonize your industry and your customers specifically, yet still fund their government with the fruits of YOUR labors??? In world of principled people, they'd never see a dollar of yours. Not a penny. Not some dirt that used to be on a penny. You'd refuse to sell mail order into their state lest they derive some sales tax revenue.

[bootless]

I don’t blame them at all. My grandfather worked there. I even worked there for a short bit.

I hope they take that beautiful dome with them.

[Quickgun]

Come to Texas! we are going to need arms makers here! If we can get the arms and ammunition factories to the red states it will give us a big advantage in the coming days!

[Palin_Rubio2012]

I feel so sorry for these blue state union workers who keep voting for libs and then wonder why all the jobs are leaving. OK maybe not so much.

[FlingWingFlyer]

It’s obvious that Connecticut doesn’t want Colt in their state. Colt needs to pull the plug and move to a more Constitution friendly state

[golux]

Little by little the entire state is becoming Bridgeport.

[Blue Collar Christian]

I would be more impressed with Colt refusing to sell firearms not allowed for citizens to government agencies.

[vetvetdoug]

Mississippi's Department of Economic Development is already on the case. They are courting Remington also and so far landed Olin (Winchester). Screw the NE. 150 years ago the South needed the industrial complex of the NE, not anymore. Matter of fact, the NE would starve if they had to depend upon themselves for food, gas, oil, and labour.

[Joe Brower]

I hope they do. It would be interesting to see what would happen to the blue states if and when the vast majority of arms manufacture here in the U.S. were to be located in red states, and then one day those companies just decide to no longer sell arms to the blue.

Hey, I can dream, can't I? While we're at it, I'd like to see the same for, say, food...
