Magpul update... not bluffing!

[Deaf Smith]

Not that I "need" any more 30 rounders but I have decided to gain a few more now.

You know Rosa Parks didn't 'need' to sit at the front of the bus, BUT IT WAS HER RIGHT. And so it is our right to own arms, same basic arms as the military and that includes 30 round magazines.

And Magpul, Texas has it all. Just come on down where you are ready.

I lived there for awhile. I remember having to physically carry my handgun collection downtown (Flint) to let some bureaucrat put her fingerprints all over my mint Smith and Wessons and Colts, so that she could log the serial numbers. I didn't even have to do that when I moved to The People's Republic of California.

Must have been awhile ago since they did away with that more than a decade ago.

By the way, if you are going to quote me, please read the entire context.

and aside from stupid pistol laws, we're a pretty gun friendly state.

Dear Magpul,

We have plenty of space and freedom here in NM if you are interested! Also you don't need to move very far!

 

[Ms_Dragon]

I thinks it's all very good an well to ask Magpul to come to your state but the costs of relocation would be prohibitive.
They (Magpul) would need some sort of assurance that the state they they moved to was going to stay a pro 2A state or the move would be a pointless and expensive exercise.

Here, my home state is very aggressive in courting and encouraging multi-nationals to set up shop.
The sweeten the pot with reduced state taxes.
They help pay for and build and upgrade infrastructure like rail sidings, roads, raise the dam walls to cope with the increased water usage, offer low interest loans to property developers so the workers have somewhere to live etc....

All these things and a very pro business attitude helps bring these large employers to the state.

Nah, don't go to Texas. WAY too hot down there. Now Wyoming is close by to your friends and family behind enemy lines, I-25 and I-80 intersect right there at Cheyenne and way more gun friendly than Texas!

 

[wacki]

How many people work for Magpul?

 

[Zak Smith]

They were reporting approx 200 directly and another approx 400 at the subcontractors.

 

[HorseSoldier]

Magpul would be welcomed in the Heart of Dixie.

Anniston has been trying to sell big chunks of the former Ft McClellan to assorted industries for quite some time now. I'm guessing the state would be more than happy to roll out a serious sweet heart deal to attract the business.

 

[Shanghai McCoy]

Kansas is just accross the border and there is plenty places to set up in Wichita or Topeka...

 

[Trung Si]

They get any and all of my future business for anything I need that they sell. I support companies like this as much as I can.

I fail to understand the Whiners in this Thread you want them to stand up for Your Rights, but you don't want them to move and stay here, just to be driven out later by an unfriendly State Government by taxation, regulation and general harassment like their Model California is doing to Gun related Companies?:banghead:
Good for Them!
God Bless Texas!

...you don't want them to move and stay here, just to be driven out later by an unfriendly State Government by taxation, regulation and general harassment...

That is precisely why NGA moved from Oregon. Sad they had to close down but it was a matter of sticking to one's principals and not letting the Government do as they please while just sitting there and taking it. I am happy to see that Magpul is sticking to their principals as well.

Wouldn't that be convenient. A MOUT site right next to your factory!!!!!!

I've had to good pleasure of using that facility several times, so much fun!

 

[xfyrfiter]

Lots of gun friendly states real near to Co. Az, Ut, Wy, Nm, Id, Mt all would welcome the jobs and the tax dollars.

 

[cemjr]

Michigan is my hope. We just dealt a serious blow to unionized thug labor with the recent passage of Right to Work laws, and aside from stupid pistol laws, we're a pretty gun friendly state.

We sure could use the jobs and the economic boost.

The place I work in the GR area does a lot of plastics work. Could be an opportunity for a nice joint venture.

I can give you another good reason why MAG PUL should choose Michigan , Senate bill 63,(if it passes), "Firearms Freedom Act" which says if you manufacture a firearm , firearm accessory or ammuition in Michigan and it remains within our borders, it is not subject to any federal law or regulation.
