The CEOs of gunmakers Ruger and Daniel Defense are drawing major heat online after both of them testified before a congressional committee earlier this week that they wholeheartedly support the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, more popularly known as the ATF. During testimony...

Dead to me. Anyone want to buy a 10/22?

Dead to me. Anyone want to buy a 10/22?

I was actually thinking of buying another one.
My take is sure the ATF is a federal agency and I don’t support large federal government but if the ATF is abolished then they will just assign another agency to regulate them. The regulations will not stop and these two companies currently know who and how to deal with the ATF. This is smart on their parts and I largely see nothing wrong with this. What would it have done if they said yes we want to abolish the ATF? It would have accomplished nothing.

Man and I was a BIG fan of Rugers???

You need to look at where the Ruger CEO said- ""we work closely with our regulators""... I dunno, sounds like a bit of groveling/boot licking to me...

Bootlicker Bill would be proud of his company

Hold onto your 10/22. It will soon be a NFT.

I guess noone has heard of the old Ruger. You know Bill Ruger. Not sure why its a surprise.

Thank God he's dead. Fuck him..

Only reason to buy any ruger product is to put a magazine that holds more than 10 rounds in it..

Buy it used. That way, no money goes back to Ruger.

 

[Vapor]

We already knew old ruger was this way, and DD has been shady af for a long time. I'm not shocked.

The govt isn’t going away. Trying to battle it 1 on 1 in a Congressional hearing is suicide either way. Agree to abolish the ATF? Extreme scrutiny and harassment will follow. Say you don’t want to shut it down? Piss off some gun owners. At the end of the day, Ruger wants to stay in business, gun owners want options, and the gov ain’t shuttering the ATF no matter who says it should. It’s a viscous cycle of petty one-upmanship.

Yeah, I can't argue with that logic... It just bothers me that just ONE time, some brave CEO can't spit in the face of Big Brother and not kowtow to their bureaucratic overlords..

I have been researching the Ruger Precision Rifle for the last few weeks. I guess I can delete all the bookmarks for the reviews and specs.

 

[C3D]

This is simply sensationalist reporting. All they said is they are not for disbanding the ATF, which is their primary regulator.

 

[nortatoga]

And every other gun maker would have said the same thing, It was a trap question!!

Exactly.
Its all politics and appearance. What answer should they have given to congress regarding the agency that can literally kill their business for no reason other than they want to be vengeful?

 

[dwa12479]

Loaded question that there's no right answer to.

Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer....

 

[SomeSoldier]

I don't like dishonest people.

 

[1075tech]

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

My supervisor always hates it when I establish a working relationship with the "regulators" . Gotta deal with them. They ain't going away

 

[Podmonkey]

Frankly I think any manufacturer representative would have done the same in that situation. Manufacturers and retailers are in the crosshairs of the current tyrannical administration and they are applying a lot of pressure.
This fight is being waged, and won, in the courts. Do not lose sight of that.

 

[Beerman]

I want a Ruger PC9 more than ever now. So how’s that gonna work? If I buy one should I hate it, or myself, while I blast away at some steel down range? I’m conflicted. I have a brother named Dan, but in his defense it’s just Dan, not Daniel. Let’s not forget that we like firearms, dislike politics, and get back to enjoying life. Beers are on my tab! Drink up!

 

[Acer-m14]

and this is why we need no fucking license from the state or feds to make a living ..

where in the BOR or Constitution says you need a business license or FFL license ?

 

[Acer-m14]

BTW ..

Anderson just released some goodies lol

 

[Paxal]

Talk is cheap. Lets see what they do. Remember, according to the Koran its fine to lie to infidels.

Sounds like "bite off your nose to save your face" right?
