Any further evidence of this being a genuine response before we all pile on?  There are typos in that and the question of join date and post count comes into play.  

Not calling you a liar OP, but more evidence would make your case more compelling.


yep

I will remain skeptical for the time being

Not to say you're lying, OP, but I would like to see some confirmation this came from an Armalite rep AND this is Armalite's thought process. There is too much BS floating around gun forums and the Internet. Trust but verify.

Not getting on board and refusing to sell to ban states is retarded.  The civilian market is much, much larger than the .gov market.  If they're not willing to stand behind those of us that make their products successful, then I'll do business with someone that will.
This is a watershed moment in this country.  At the end of this debacle there will be lists made.  The dealers and manufacturers should consider which list they'd prefer to be on.  You can decide to be on the "gov't control" list.  Or the "Individual freedom" list.  Life is all about choices.

You need to convince ... the common people about their mistake in electing these officials and have them removed. Again NOT the manufacture.



How is this not true?

It's not ArmaLites fault New York went full retard, nor is this saying they will support he ban. He's right. The populace who elected these idiots is ultimately to blame.


ETA  Arfcom is going to go full Zumbo because of that?


Sorry, I will continue to buy ArmaLite after that statement, even if it was a company wide stance, which it isn't. Kneejerk can happen on both sides of the coin.

Send all now frowned upon AR10s and accessories to me...



The anti's didn't give a flying fuck about 1/6th of the economy in the healthcare debate.  Do you really think that boycotts of relatively minor GDP contributors is going to have any effect on the left?  They'd be quite happy if these companies were driven to extinction.  Wait until they pull a 1990s S&W (voluntary copping to product changes) before you go full retard.

I guess we will find out.

Dear Armalite,
     I am a law abiding citizen that has enjoyed owning and shooting
AR15 type rifles (including 3 Armalite branded rifles) for about 8
years.  A friend of mine recently forwarded me an email his friend
supposedly got in response from you company regarding other AR15
manufacturers boycotting the LE departments of states that are banning
civilian ownership of AR15 pattern rifles.  I would like you to please
tell me there is no such douchebag working at your company and that
this is not Armalite's official response before I crush all my
Armalite branded rifles with my tractor and purchase more Rock River
Arms rifles.  If this is indeed you official stance, please check your
records and see what percentage of your rifles are sold to civilians.
We do not forget.

Sincerely,
Iceman19047

Isn't there a sign-up list that sends an email from everyone who signs-up?

Either way, if true...attitude is everything.

Ill wait until i see a reply from armalite before getting worked up.   I have a few armalite uppers and misc parts.  I am happy with their product and my 20 in upper shoots lights out so hoping this is found to be false.
