If it were not for my elderly parents I would consider leaving now and heading for Tennessee or North Carolina. I'm a southern girl at heart anyway.

You'd like Montana better than Texas.

Brand new Industrial park being built about 15 miles east of Reno:
Tahoe/Reno Regional Industrial Park
Lance Gilman, Developer
106,000 acres---Yes, I typed 106 Thousand acres. Right next to I-80.
Weather cannot be any worse than Illinois.
Brand new development.
Don't have the number at hand, but they are advertising lots. Google them???

Wellll.. If you have to.... come on. But between, "open borders" to the South, Katrina refugees from the East, California refugees who don't know enough to stop in Nevada and Arizona, (given Nv's and Az senators, understandable) A few DamnYankees more or less won't matter. LOL

This is the same Ilinois that has a "World Shooting Sports Complex" massively under construction in Sparta, just outside St. Louis. What was the ATA thinking when the agreed to move the Grand American Trapshoot to Illinois?

Yes, and they wouldn't have to fight that damn Illinois Tollway BS either. That piece of road must be near the butt hole of the United States. It is a monstrosity and a further drain on taxpayers. I was in Illinois this past August; got caught on the Tollway - it took 3 hours to traverse the 20 miles or so to the Michigan border. Chicago must be one of the worst cities in the US.

Good for these guys. The threat of the ban in '94 showed a few supposedly solid manufacturers to be little more than quislings.

Imagine if it gets so bad that businesses become so mobile they develope their ability to take their HQ buildings and facility infrastructure too.

Well, we have all the others that stay in the Siberian like Northeast. If I owned Remington, Winchester, etc. I would have pulled out of the NE long ago.

My brother-in-law and family live in Indiana. May stock up next time we visit.
BTW, we drive through Illinois on our way to Indiana. Maybe we should bypass the state and spend our money elsewhere.

Work in Longmont myself. Live in Westminster.
I am a Ruger man but wouldn't hesitate to by a couple of weapons from Springfield. Looking for a good hunting rifle.

good.
they should also refuse to sell guns to agencies of governments which ban the civilian ownership of their products.
tit for tat, sauce for the goose, eye for an eye.

If it were not for my elderly parents I would consider leaving now and heading for Tennessee or North Carolina. I'm a southern girl at heart anyway. I spent the last half-decade in Memphis, and prior to that considered myself a Texan just temporarily transplanted away from happier times down around the Cleburne and Ft Worth area. Yep, I miss the mid-south and Texas.
But I've found a place with much of the southern hospitality and character of Dixie, with equally beautiful scenic vistas, and far fewer distractions from unworthy neighbors- and in a solidly republican *red* state too.
Care to check it out?
