According to Keffer, when he backed out of the show all 14 of those other exhibitors left with him. That list includes gunmakers Smith & Wesson, Thompson/Center, Ruger, Benelli, Franchi and Stoeger.
Way to go, Pa. bitter clingers!
Yah, that would be .223
Hmmm. Maybe the Bitter Clingers party can join the Tea Party and get something done!
Gun people don’t like being double-crossed for political reasons and we have long memories. I still won’t buy a new Ruger firearm because of Bill Ruger’s support of the 1994 gun ban.
Sorry...
So, who’s the new sponsor? When is new show going to take place?
How many AR-15s would you have to sell to make a profit after paying the $7,000.00 for a booth?
who is Reed’s boss?
at current panic inflation prices? three perhaps two if they are reaaaaaaly nice.
how many politicians are paying attention to this?
the beltway only reads the NYT and watches msnbc and cnn.
“who is Reed’s boss?”
Probably Queen Elizabeth or David Cameron. Reed’s Exhibitions is a Brit company, or so I have been lead to believe.
“How many AR-15s would you have to sell to make a profit after paying the $7,000.00 for a booth?”
Probably 7 at today’s prices.
and the line still holds. FUBO.
Now Reed needs to by hit with a class action for breech of contract.
They created an arbitrary requirement after taking the money. They should get sued for costs and damages.

Now if Gun Manufacturers would get together for their very survival and immediately Halt ALL SALES to New York, California, and Any other State that Wants Strict Gun Control, help them out STOP SELLING TO THOSE STATES ENTIRELY. Actually I am surprised they haven’t done it yet.
