While it wouldn't be a fun task to move the company, isn't this kind of like pleading with the king to allow you to stay, and in return, you'll fill the state coffers with tax dollars, from manufacturing something they don't believe citizens have a right to own?
They may not pass H.B. 1224, this time around, but it's going to keep coming up, over and over, and over, because the leaders simply don't believe in what Magpul is making. |

Cue that clapping guy in the theater gif.
Sucks they even have to spend the money to defend constitutionally protected rights though. |
|
I'm glad the industry is starting to push back. Colorado doesn't really want to miss out on taxes and jobs do they?

If you want to sway liberals' opinion, you don't appeal to their emotions, but make a case on hard-headed economics! Oh, wait, were you serious? No. Liberals don't give a fuck about economics. They'll sit around and watch their states and cities collapse before they do things like pass right to work laws, switch to defined contribution retirement plans, lower taxes or permit resource development. They love Obama in spite of the economic carnage we've been suffering through for 4 years now. They hate Governor Walker's guts in Wisconsin even though he competently managed their state. But he did it by defying their self-destructive ideology. Oil pays for something like 90% of Alaska's state government, but liberals here fight any further oil development because of global warming junk science. So when I see Magpul spending a lot of money on a full page ad appealing to economics and common sense, I can just see the scowling liberal reading that and saying "Good! I want them to leave my state!" Rats, I must calibrate my Sarcasm Detector. It was giving flaky readings. I hope the legislature comes to its senses. That would be the best outcome for everyone. We moved a commercial printing plant across the highway about 10 years ago. Output will be negatively affected at a time when it is most required. |

You guys are welcome here in Texas! How about we work on keeping them in CO and fighting back these ridiculous laws? THAT! The laws are gonna get ridiculous out here. Hopefully people start to use common sense and learn about firearms before making an idiotic desicion. |

A commenter on one of the news channels pointed out the hypocrisy of the whole affair ...
"You can build them here to sell and endanger the citizens of the other states, but you can't endanger our citizens with them ... 'cause we're too special." |

Don't understand how taking out an add in a paper is going to overcome a sniper majority of brain dead hippies. Oddly enough magpul thought it was cute to mfg mags in the heart of hippyland and now they are essentially getting thrown out of the state by those same hippies. Oh well, peak pmag tomorrow at 12 noon EST. Ten years ago Colorado wasn't hippy central. It wasn't until recently all the hippies fled California after they fucked that state up and infiltrated out from Tellyourweird (Teluride) to screw Colorado up. Sadly it's why the hubby and I can never go back. Don't get me wrong Texas is great, and we'd welcome you here in a heartbeat Magpul, but we do miss the mountains and the snow sometimes. This guy gets it! This is a copy of a recent post of mine analyzing the spead of the left wing/progressive/Marxist cancer: **** In case you have not noticed that RED & BLUE election map Colorado has been a BLUE state for the last several national elections. I suspect from all the left wing/progressive garbage from California, NY or the upper midwest blue states! They're like a cancer or a plague of locusts. After they have destroyed their home states they seek a more conservative red state. After many years and they're are enough of them their new "location" will start to resemble the place they came from (culturally, politically, etc.). It becomes a shit hole! The crap that moved out from NYC has destroyed Long Island. That along with all the third world vermin that has invaded my State. As a conservative my final act will be to move to Texas! And on the way out I will stand on the hood of my truck and piss all over the "Welcome to New York State" sign! |

The ad will probably end up being a waste of money, but it is cool anyway. Fuck CO, maybe Magpul should go to Texas. That state is likely where we will make our last stand at some point. CORRECT! I have been saying this for years. Going on a real estate looking venture for 2 weeks this summer. McKinney Texas! Got to get away from the brain dead liberal vermin up here! |

Quoted: Um, I don't own any Pmags but I'll buy some if you move out of Colorado? I'd rather you keep your money. |

I'm from Colorado...
and although I don't live there currently, I have all my family calling and writing their Representatives Colorado is a great place... quickly losing its goodness through utter idiocy. Keep fighting Magpul... but if they do it... Move. I will certainly support your business if you stand up for what is right. States need to understand that their stupidity and short sightedness really do matter. Let them hug an empty warehouse and manufacturing facility right along with their trees. |

All of our magazines currently are molded in Colorado. |

Quoted: I sincerely hope Magpul, and the good people of Colorado win their fight. However, if they do not.... LOL... at you guys who think that anybody leaves the Rocky Mountain West and goes to Mississippi or Wisconsin or Texas. LOL. If Magpul likes Boulder, than Boise, St George or Flagstaff might be good choices. Yeah LOL, let's move from Erie Colorado to Twiddle Your Ballsack USA! |

Quoted: Even if you win & they don't pass it this time, the millions paid to the libs in taxes will be used against you, always. Why give them ammunition they will use to try & kill you? Make a move to where you will be appreciated, rather than simply tolerated until they can crush you. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do. Just remember, they will never, ever stop. Never. Says the guy form the state that elected "Ma Richards" as governor. Can't happen there right? ETA: TOTALLY worthy of post 556! |

Awesome! I got an email from them and it stated that due to the nature of their business, I'm assuming the way their product is produced, it would not be that big a deal for them to relocate. I don't believe they're BS'ing about moving.

While I fully support Magpul and their efforts to fight back to stay in Colorado, I do think the fix is in and this is as good as a done deal... fuck the consequences... it is just how libtards operate, they don't give one rat's ass about economics as long as they can say "we done something"... I do think in the end the voters of CO will show them the error of their ways, but by then it will be too late and Magpul will have packed up and left for greener pastures.
With that said... I hear Texas is nice! |

Good job, Magpul. Makes me want to take my pmags out to the range.

If Colorado becomes a lost cause, which truly hope does not become the case. Look west towards Utah, nice fully red state, and it sends a big F U to Colorado legislators.
