They aren’t moving the company to Australia.

So, the Aussies don't like guns, but they don't have any issue with selling them for a profit? Right.

Not so. The Australian GOVERNMENT don't like guns. A bit like the US Government at the moment....

Yeah, good point there. Maybe the purchase made some government dweeb's head explode (not unlike what a .50 BMG would make it do).

The article mentions they already have plans to expand the TN facility.

That pretty much follows as a possible exit strategy plan, get the production going in the TN plant so you can exit Aussie Land if the SHTF if needed.

Governments the world over have always tended toward tyranny. The exception occurred when the Declaration of Independence was drafted.

The people now running our own government should read that document.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

"The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth."

Glad I'm not the only one who wondered that.

I would think continuing that policy would be something that is important to Ronnie Barrett and was discussed during the acquisition. Here’s to hoping the liberty hating authoritarians in CA continue to be blacklisted by Barrett.
