^^^^^Thanks, Dusty!

Yup, that's the website I went to, but there's no e-mail address listed there. Only a snail-mail address and phone numbers.

Maybe they don't do e-mail?


Thanks,

When ever I'm serious about making a statement to a company what I do is track down the name of the CEO and other higher ups... and write them a letter on PAPER and mail it. I'm sorry but emails and voice mails are easily deleted in my mind.... a piece of paper you have to at least hold and move over and drop in the trash. On top of this I will not use one bad foul word in the letter.

I have a favorite ammo company now.

Now if we could only get Federal & Remington to follow suit. A win for Hornady for sure!

Wouldn't it be awesome if Glock and Sig Sauer both told NYC PD to bugger off?

AFAIK, Barrett still doesn’t sell or service California LE Agencies...right?

I am certain, I was the first one in Sig Forum to suggest stopping the sales to them a couple years back. Here's another of my original ideas, make a note: here on in, we civilians should design for us, not them, civilian style weapons. Not one damn firearm should get the lable, military style and, government and LE from anti gun states should not be allowed to obtain, not even in their civilian capacity, civilian style weapons. Chaff from the wheat if you will.

Sent my approval. I was already a bit of a Hornady fan, but now this just makes it more so.

I join in the sentiment, but what would keep the.New York government from making their own ammo?

I hate Cuomo, riding the coat tails of pops. He's a loudmouth bully.

Ugh. Manufactured or remanufactured ammo - by New York City union labor. The cost hike and delays in delivery would be brutal enough, but the odds of firing a round that was poorly loaded by some drunk who should've been fired years before would scare the hell out of me if I worked for some New York agency.

If all the major ammo manufacturers followed Hornady's lead and NY was reduced to loading their own, I'd predict a huge black market sales upsurge in Pennsylvania to unidentified NYC policemen.

I’ve always liked Hornady, but would try out other brands from time to time. Now I will be buying Hornady first whenever possible.
