Two Firearms Makers Halt All Sells to New York

Post by Flesh Thorn »

On Feb. 8, Mark LaRue, owner of LaRue Tactical of Leander, TX, announced his company would no longer sell its firearms to state and local law-enforcement agencies in states that have banned the legal ownership of the same firearms to law-abiding citizens.
LaRue’s move was a reaction to the signing of sweeping new laws in New York by Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Jan. 15. The laws prohibit the sale of AR-platform and similar rifles, certain “high-capacity” magazines and carrying more than seven cartridges in any magazine.

Add MFIAP to list. They make scope mounts, etc. At one time Ronnie Barrett had a similar policy.

I emailed the CEO of Ruger!

My (way too few IMHO) interactions with Larue have been superlative. I am humbled, but not surprised, to hear of their decision. They will have as much business as I can possibly give them going forward. I like the fact that I can vote with my dollars the same as a ballot.
