but why does Texas want to spend tax dollars on bringing these companies here? That is hypocritical. I oppose corporate welfare, period.

If it makes sense for them to move their business here, then they can do it without welfare.

O. F. Mossberg & Sons will be MOST welcome in Texas.

One of my oldest and dearest friends lives in Robertson County--DEEP in the heart of Texas. I visit her frequently.
LOVE it there! I feel very much at home.

a shame. CT was the heart of precision mfg in the US once upon a time.

OK, this one is fairly big. I don't care for Mossies, but a lot of people I break bread with don't use any other shotgun, and most of them will be tickled that OFM&S is (carefully and incrementally) sticking one in CT's eye.

I’m surprised they are not moving their headquarters as well.

Why stay in New Haven?

Sigh... from 1998 to 2004 I was fortunate enough to live in Texas. I lived on Padre Island (North part near Corpus Christi). What a pleasure that was.

While we were there we bought a house, a boat an RV and a cargo trailer and each time we made the offer and when it was agreed we shook hands and that was that. It was a pleasure doing business with people who had a sense of honor and what was right and what was wrong.

It was worth putting up with the heat and humidity but I still wonder, before they invented air conditioning, how Texans reproduced during the sweaty season.

There are many medium-sized cities in Texas that would welcome Mossberg. Avoid the large cities. They are being over run by out of state Libs who have ruined their former home states and will attempt to do the same in Texas.

I am starting to worry about all the gun manufacturers collecting in a small number of states. If they every turn blue (by hook or by crook) a few lefty governors could close down the entire industry. The old eggs in one basket warning.

I will be quite happy to welcome Mossberg to Texas. As will all other Texans.

And we love Manufacturing here. Anywhere you go in Texas you see old school blue collar manufacturing.
I love the United States of Texas.

The gun manufacturers used to be in CT and MA. I wish CT voters would wake up, but Bridgeport is voter fraud heaven.
