New and Old. Personally, I don't give a fuck. I mean, they are calling a Native American a Savage, so I can see where the offense would come from. And if they did it without any outside pressure, I'm okay with a company rebranding itself. |

Where the butt hurt comes in is all these enlightened individuals eaten up with feelings is they can't grasp anything that happened before they were born. Could you imagine coming here from Europe and not knowing what you would encounter and you find people of a color you've never seen, wearing animal skins and headdresses, speaking a language that sounds like nothing they've ever heard. No written language, I'm not even sure they had invented the wheel. I think savage is probably one of the nicer things said.

And sure, if you were born during or before the Regan Administration, that's what you see native symbols representing. However, born in the 90's, all they can think of is smallpox blankets and casinos. |

Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered $100 worth of "OLD" merchandise from their store.

When was Savage purchased by Vista Outdoors, or was Savage an ATK property beforehand? I'm thinking it was recent, hence the logo change. New management.
ETA: Vista bought Savage in 2013. Damn, they also own CCI, Bushnell, Bolle, Camelback, Primos, Hoppes, Federal Premium, RCBS, Alliant Powder, Blackhawk . . . |
