Tribal casinos, the places that Social Security built.

Not trading guns with the indians has been policy for centuries.

In a lot of States you cannot have a few beers and smoke a cigarette too. Before I quit, it was better to go to the casino, sit and drink a beer and listen to the music from the numerous knock off #1 hitmakers like “THEE Guess who”, or Janet Joplin.

I find it ironic that an Indian tribe would prefer to sell guns to the government that subjugated it with guns, rather than to private citizens so they could protect themselves against any potential government subjugation.

yes

This tells me that the Navajo Nation has now become a bastion of Progressivism and is therefore a domestic enemy of the Constitution of these United States.

It intended to shift the company away from its consumer business, including curtailing the sale of the AR-15-style weapons frequently used in mass shootings, to focus on police and defense contracts.

AR style rifles were rarely used in mass shooting until very recently.

Reducing the sale of one of your product in most demand sounds like a losing strategy.

Choosing to limit your sales to the smallest part of the market seems like a strategy for failure.

Sure, police and defense sales are large individual contracts. But they are also highly competitive.

In the defense industry you can design a fantastic product and submit a very competitive bid and still not make the sale. The same holds true for police contracts.

It rarely pays to limit your self to a small customer base. The larger the range of customers you can sell to the greater your potential for generating sales.

I don’t understand this as a business strategy at all. This looks more like an ideologically driven strategy. Ideology doesn’t increase share holder value.

If it is the only casino around, I guess I can see why they might go there.

There are plenty of other casinos not run by Indian tribes. The tribes are corrupt and set the rules and you cannot win any lawsuit against them when they cheat you. They get Sovereign status.

Many of the Remington patents are nearly priceless.

Some of the finest and most iconic sporting arms in American history are Remington. With careful, precise manufacturing they could very well be at the top of the heap.

Why do you say that?

My take on Indian anything is it runs best when they farm out management

Maybe we could crowd source the purchase. “Free Republic Remington Arms” has a nice ring to it.

But only if some of the profits were used to eliminate Freepathons...

I like your idea; I’m sure there are some Freepers here with enough business sense and experience to turn this company around. I’d invest in it.

Anyone who sells rifles to Injuns is lower than a horse thief and should get the same hangin'.

Besides dirty fingers or dry fingers that never match the fingerprint. The sensors rarely work for me. A great counter measure would be an EMP device that whacks all the electronics moments before you intend to engage the parties with the "smart guns". Too bad. Don't bring a paperweight to a gun fight.

Got a call this afternoon from the local sheriff's office. My Idaho Enhanced CCW is approved. My wife was too. We'll zip down and pick up the approval forms, roll by the DMV for a photo shoot and leave with our upgraded CCW. We've had the basic one since 2000.
