    are replacement firing pins that hard to manufacture for most guns?
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    Honestly thinking like a businessman, there is no way I would stay in a state that was hostile to the very product I produced. That goes for Colt, S&W, Remington, Springfield Arms and many others. Why give money to a master intent upon your destruction?

    Move the plants, move the people that want to go too.

    It's expensive and you will lose good workers.

    I agree it is expensive to move a business but the receiving State will bend over backwards to reduce costs and help the company. Electing to stay in a state populated by people and government weenies trying to destroy you will eventually prove to be much more costly than moving to friendlier pastures.
