[ARCHIVED THREAD] - gun makers

Just wondering if anyone has heard about the state tryin to attract gun makers to this state. I ran across an artical in a tulsa news site gun haven't heard of anything else about it. What are yalls thoughts on it if we did get a manufacturer here? I personally think it would be cool, that's just me.

don't know if they're still in business or not but the high end rifle manufacturer Champlaine(sp) was in the state.

I have heard that the city of McAlester is trying to get Sabre Defence Industries to open a manufacturing facility there.

I thought most of the politicians from McAlester were either in prison or on probation?

I read that artical just now. Its an interasting read. Sounds promising if it goes right.

I googled up Champlaine(sp) firearms, their website shows they are in Enid, I guess still. They have a super nice lookin side-by-side on thier home page.

Don't know if Champlain Arms is still in business?

Couldn't afford anything from them if they are.

They used to be out east of Enid close to the airport.

well a custom rifle does take a chunk out of one's pocket, I'd bet most that they produce are bought by people that would never shoot them.
