Did I read it right, that they had invested before in Magpul? If No Comment, I respect your right to privacy, OPSEC and all that.

Magpul Response in GD Thread This is about growing in a way that is consistent with our values. To understand our values check out our Magpul Foundations. Total acquisition by a larger company in this industry would have likely stopped Magpul from being Magpul. So instead we looked hard for partners to help us maintain our growth while staying true to our core concepts. Our new partners bring expertise in expanding the company, while letting us focus on our strengths of manufacturing and design. After many months working with our new partners we are more confident than ever in our choice. Rest assured, new products will be designed and built by the same team, in the US and to the same quality standard as our current line up. The only thing that will change is our ability to grow and release products. |

Sounds like natural progression to me, and overall good news for everyone.
