And there's the rub: Not selling to citizens puts them in the national spotlight, selling to LEO's "behind their back" will get out and many gun buyers will cut them off to protest.
It's a calculated risk. Will the make enough on a PD contract to cover the lost sales from those they alienate?
The larger makers will continue to sell to PD's - Colt, FN, SIG, Glock, etc. I fully expect them to be called out on it, but the reality is money talks. That brings up the real question:
Since when are the Police Constitutionally exempt from abiding by the law?
Oh, sure, we say they can and trot out reasons, but really, we give them a pass. We don't for ourselves. It's our department, our laws, and the results are entirely ours. Oh, it can't be changed? Is Colorado selling marijuana openly? Saying it can't be changed is defeatist and places you in their camp as a supporter.
It's been said be either hot or cold, but lukewarm should be spit out for what it is. We need to look at the situation and correct the real issue, the Police don't have to obey the law.
Is that right?
