I was at the store/range today and heard a discussion that a well known  manufacturer was in trouble - may be done - due to selling illegal MGs. I am not going to say the name on the hope it is a rumor or misunderstanding. Has anyone else heard anything similar  ... and forgive me if it is old news, but I just looked and found nothing. I hope it is BS and if so nvm.

I haven't heard anything, but I live in the country and usually don't hear much anyhow, lol!!!
I hope it is just a rumor. I can also see this getting moved real quick.

Cav Arms?

ETA: Not a technical discussion, so I predict it's gonna get moved and/or locked.

I have heard so much bs over the years at stores / the range. It could be complete bs or just false. I really do not want to add a name without anything more. If anyone has heard anything ... if not I tend to think it may be wrong. Again - I hope so. It was not said to be cav arms.

Cav Arms was an unrelated issue.

The one you are referring to... as I understand it... had a rogue employee selling stuff out the back door.

Seems unlikey the unknown company that just got a .mil contract for m16 is in danger of being shut down

Yes- That is what I heard. I hope it is not true for the sake of the company and the employee...

Theft and illegal activity can happen in any industry. The gun Mfg industry is no different.

I highly doubt the Mfg would have anything to worry about... especially if it's simply an employee with sticky fingers.

Ever hear the Johnny Cash song... "One piece at a time" ?

Wasn't Sabre Defense getting an ATF enema a few months ago?   Is it them?

Sounds like Sabre.

Sabre did have an issue with employes selling ARs or parts under the table not too long ago. Although Im sure they arent going anywhere considering their newly acquired Marine/Navy contract for M16's. Remember the picture in the Georgian war with all those Bushmaster rifles being disposed? Companies go through things like this.
