List of Gun and Related Companies Refusing to Sell to LEA in Ban States

[jakeman]

Get Colt, S&W & Glock on the list and then attention will gotten.

 

[loudshirt]

All of those together do not have near the influence that each of the following Glock, Smith & Wesson, Remington, and Colt have in the LE market.

 

[Glocktogo]

We should start a letter-writing campaign to some of our favorite suppliers. I see Spike's on there, too, which is awesome! We should get some other manufacturers on board like PSA, DPMS, etc. Jeez, if Colt and S&W would get on the boat, someone might actually take notice.

Here you go!

Dear Law Enforcement Sales Manager,

Recently New York rushed an ill-advised and unconstitutional law infringing on the rights of law-abiding gun owners. Other states are poised to write similar laws. I urge you to follow the lead of LaRue Tactical which has adopted this policy: If it can’t be sold to law-abiding citizens, it won’t be sold to state and local police agencies either.

There are 800,000 sworn police officers in the entire United States. The FBI reports a total of 2,495,440 NICS checks, and thus firearms sales, in January alone. Police sales are not your major business. It’s time for firearm manufacturers to send a clear message that you will not participate in the slow erosion of our Second Amendment rights.

Signed,

Armalite CEO tried to water down and whitewash their position, but looks like a straight up "pound sand" from them on any commitment of this sort to support our rights. They took down their facebook page.

J&G Sales made their announcement yesterday.

ANNOUNCING A NEW J&G LEO SHIPPING POLICY

For immediate release:

As state and local jurisdictions are increasingly passing laws which infringe upon the Second Amendment of the US Constitution, J&G Sales is implementing a new policy on shipping restricted items to these states and localities.

Effective immediately, laws that restrict firearms, ammunition, or magazine possession by law abiding citizens will also be applied to state and local law enforcement and government agencies in that jurisdiction. All residents will be treated equally. Honorable citizens, law enforcement personnel, and government agents, should all be allowed to utilize the most effective defensive equipment available.

J&G believes that there should not be a difference between the rights of citizens and those of government employees. This new policy will also help us to be sure we avoid the consequences of not conforming with the anti-firearm regulations in these various jurisdictions.

We expect to lose some revenue from government purchases, however we feel it is essential to defend the US Constitution by making a statement about the importance of the Second Amendment in maintaining all our freedoms.

We await the day when all law abiding citizens will be able to possess the most effective means and tools available for self-defense regardless of where they live or for whom they work.

Thank you

Never a good idea to dismiss your customers and tell them to pound sand when there are so many different options for your product. Who needs Armalite anyways? There are better options out there for the same money.

 

[R. Johnson]

Yep. Armalite will not be receiving any of my money.

 

[Mr.357Sig]

Glad to see that no-sale list is growing.

The web site The Police Loophole is tracking the growing list of companies that are refusing to make any sell in states that limit sales to their citizens.
