AR15.COM packing up and heading to Texas

AR15.Com
For immediate release:
AR15.COM is packing up and heading west to the great state of Texas.
We've spent the last two years and an immeasurable amount of blood, sweat and tears working on a retail location that, at this point, will never open thanks to New York politics.
While we will continue to do all we can to attempt to "fix" New York and help the brothers and sisters we leave behind, we will do so from outside of the state where we have spent the last 35+ years.
While this will not be a simple move, nor is it going to be without it's challenges, we feel that it is a necessary move. We cannot morally continue to support a state that has such disregard for the basic principles this country was founded on, nor do we want to live in an environment where citizens are constantly fighting the very government that is supposed to be representing them.
We will continue to fight against not just the SAFE Act here in New York, but against all legislation that would infringe upon any citizen's 2nd Amendment rights, or any of the basic principles this country was founded on.

I dont guess this will keep their site users from pretending to be Tacticool gurus and uploading pics of their $900 ARs with $5000 worth of woopidedoo bolted to them.[;)]
Really NY would have been my last choice for anything to do with an AR15 retail location.

A little more accurate.
Good for them but they could have done better.
Texas? Not the most gun Friendly state at all. Much more so than New York but Texas can't come close to gun friendly when compared to Arizona.

I'm going to guess they wanted to be somewhere that having a retail location would be more profitable, and also gun friendly. Texas has a little more going for it economically than Arizona does.

This is a BUSINESS decision, and TEXAS is good for business. That's why many businesses are relocating to TEXAS.
Screw New York politics.
Any word where Magpul is going?

Screw New York politics.I agree with that.
They'd never move to AZ, 'cause frankly, AZ ain't big enough for us.
