I hope so, but Boulder to Cheyenne is still a long drive, especially in the winter.

Apparently, headquarters of Magpul is going to Texas. Most of the current production is moving to Wyoming, I think, near Cheyenne. Also, Magpul is looking at other sites for expanded manufacturing capability. A small crew will be left behind in Colorado to show support to Colorado customers and to fight gun legislation there.

...Boulder to Cheyenne is still a long drive...

May very well be true for newbies and those in the Denver/Boulder plex, but most people who've lived in MT/WY/CO have a significantly different attitude about acceptable driving distances.

Boulder to Cheyenne is a hundred miles, which is also about the same distance our son has had to travel to jobsites in Colorado (including some 'way up in the hills) every day for most of the past fifteen years, my standard Go-Get-Groceries run is a 50 mile roundtripper mostly on county gravel and I know many people around Montana who do their shopping/medical/business runs to Billings on a regular basis that total four to five hundred miles.

...and winter driving? Well, I'd guess that two-thirds of the vehicles in Billings are 4x4 pickups (driven by people who've lived in this stuff forever), and that proportion is exponentially higher when you get out of that Big Town.

Not to mention the fact that Erie might be in the same general area as Boulder, but the two towns may as well be on different planets (unless Erie's changed a whole bunch since the last time I worked there).
