Do you hear that sound?

That’s the sound of the many gun manufacturers in IL breaking the sound barrier on their way out of the state - and taking a lot more jobs than the idiot politicians in IL think.

Meanwhile, Texas will be getting yet more gun manufacturers, yay! Model 1 Sales has already moved here from IL. We can hope that SA, Armalite, and some others will as well.

I hope that Springfield just moves across the river to Iowa, but I bet they go to Texas, South Dakota, or Oklahoma.

Rock River Arms manufactures Ar-15's and a few other nice guns. They came out a few weeks back and said if the state passes any restrictions, they will just close shop and move to another state... I believe one of the options they mentioned was Iowa. All we can do is stay tuned and hope for the best.
