1st business day since this story hit and RRA finally speaks. Still nothing of substance from Springfield Cuckery.

http://www.rockriverarms.com/images/pdfs/RRA_Stmt17.pdf
>>
For immediate release: May 1, 2017

Rock River Arms, Inc.® (RRA) wants to assure the Illinois (and national) firearms community that we are
still 100 percent opposed to the Gun Dealer Licensing Act - SB1657, the house version of the same bill,
and any potential final legislation that may come from those bills along with any other infringements on
the gun rights of law-abiding citizens everywhere.

For more than twenty years, Rock River Arms and Springfield Armory have actively opposed gun control
legislation at the local, state, and federal levels. In 2009, we partnered with other manufacturers to form
an organization geared towards representing our interests - The Illinois Firearms Manufacturers
Association (IFMA). Historically, that organization has done well in representing us in Springfield, Illinois.
We had no reason to believe that it was doing anything beyond representing the firearms community’s
(Illinois firearms manufacturers, dealers and gun owners) best interests, keeping us well-informed on
relevant legislation and issues, acting on our behalf. In the case of SB1657, there was a disconnect and
that representation was misguided.

While we do believe that IFMA acted in what it felt was the best interests of its members, we were as
shocked as everyone else to find ourselves exempted from provisions of SB1657 and that IFMA was no
longer opposing that bill, even though RRA still opposed it.
Again, Rock River Arms wants to emphasize (regardless of anything that may have been said or done,
mistakenly or otherwise, by any other party on our behalf) its continued total opposition to SB1657, the
Illinois House version of the bill and any final legislation that may emerge. This includes any provisions
found in Gun Dealer Licensing Act SB1657, along with any other threats that may infringe upon our gun
rights.

>Springfield of all companies makes the gun I've wanted for years
>a small subcompact DA/SA 9mm
>cucks it up by funding anti gun bullshittery

I sincerely hope more companies like Sig or Beretta get onboard making their own single stack DA/SA 9mm's because I sure as fuck am not touching anything Springfield makes because of this shit. They can eat a dick for all I care and XDs are garbo anyways.

Sad to see, but yeah. Trump is both good and bad for firearms in general. Great prices, but tomfoolery for us goyim.
>>
>>33826995
Oh and this shit with the lobbyist and the deal he made happened in March.

So either RRA knew about it and hoped it would slide or they had no idea what their paid guy was doing. Either way they are culpable and can shove their statement up their own ass.

Springfield Armory has made no statement because they know they are fucked like S&W was in the 90s.

Lawls! It wasn't some James Bond villain plot. It was a business decision that it would be better to sell out gun owners and small shops in IL to stay in business in that state than to incur the costs of relocating to a free state. Hopefully they will not have to worry about it soon because they will be out of business.
>>
>>33826891
It doesn't fucking matter what these dick heads say, the vote only passed by 1 god damn vote. Your'e telling me they couldn't muster enough influence to sway 1 vote?

Instead of standing up and doing what was right for the firearms community, they opted to side with the government who would shut out the small community based stores and fuck the average, law abiding citizen.

They actively supported gun control becasue it benefited their bottom line and shut out a lot of competition and protected themselves.

>we were as shocked as everyone else to find ourselves exempted from provisions of SB1657 and that IFMA was no longer opposing that bill, even though RRA still opposed it

So they're going same way Hillary went with the old "It's not wrong becasue we are incompetent" excuse.

You are telling me that in your home manufacturing state, you weren't aware of a massive sweeping piece of firearms legislature that could have seriously hindered your ability to manufacture firearms?

Yeah, that's really fucking believable.

>>33827596
There aren't enough govt and state employees to offset SA's losses if the newfags, tards and mallninjas stop buying XDs.

I swear to god Croatia is only able to keep its children alive because 350lb burgers riding mobility scooters taking up entire isles at mah local gunshow are buying XDs for their Serpa holsters they got on deep discount with the purchase of a concealed carry badge during the black friday sales.

The M14 is, and was always, garbage. It's not a good rifle compared to the FAL or G3.
>>
>>33827743
Who the fuck honestly was buying XDs? I've never seen one at the range or anywhere else. They're ugly as fuck and objectively worse than the competition due to the grip safety.

I can't imagine why SA did this, but at least a company I give zero fucks about is getting it's ass reamed over doing something stupid.

I honestly can't take anyone seriously as a gun guy if I know they own and carry an XD.

And honestly SA makes absolutely NOTHING that you can't get somewhere else. It will work out just fine if they go out of business to reinforce to the rest of the industry that your business will burn if you side with gun grabbers in the slightest way. We get to make a point but lose nothing of value with their passing. win-win.

Same here. Probably just gonna build one now, unless I get an old commander 9mm. It won't be as trim, buy 9mm still works pretty well since it's a shorter distance between the cartridge and the chamber mouth compared to the .45. One of those odd circumstances where deviation from the original 1911 design isn't bad

Trump just went to the NRA, the first time since Raegan, and he put right wing supreme justice member in. You shouldn't try to blame him for what snake in the grass jewish companies do to make money.

So if they were opposed to this legistlation would they not get their exemptions?
>>
>>33829032
Correct, unless they did not get affected by the law they did not want it. To sweeten the deal the other side made exceptions of companies based out of IL. Someone thought this would be a good profitable idea and did not think of the backlash.
>>
>>33829032
I don't know how IL politics works. The bill as passed has their exemption in it. It still has to get through the house and get signed by the governor. Whether or not it can be amended at this point I don't know.

The issue is they are looking to make more money by causing higher cost of other products to the consumer. Not by making a better item, getting tax cuts or some other shit. They are literally trying to make anything but they produce more expensive. Who does this hurt? All gun buyers in the state. It is a very shitty move.

It would be like Kia having a car plant in your state but making you pay an extra amount for any other brand but them. The Kia still cost the same as before but now you have to pay more for any other brand but them.

They could have taken the hit like Les Baer and moved out of that communist state years ago.

For the last few years many companies in the industry have been relocating to friendly states. Magpul, Remington and Beretta to name a few I can think of off the top of my head.

They chose to fuck people over instead of losing some money. That's their choice as a business. It's our choice as consumers to say fuck that and stop doing business with them.

It took Ruger 20 years to recover after they made a similar kerfluffle. Tbh, the collective critical analysis of information is so fucking low at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if SA showed an uptick in sales because people just don't fucking read the news any more.

Also, Springfield's the SAINT is a fucking garbage entry-level AR-15 platform advertised as the "next best thing" in self-defense. It's a fucking mediocre truck gun for people who want to get their niece something to shoot her abusive ex-boyfriend.

Best explanation yet on how this could have happened from an arfcom post:

"I think they're short sighted. I also suspect someone running those companies isn't a gun guy and isn't familiar with what happened to S&W. That looks to me like the work of some short sighted beancounters who run a firearms company but aren't gun people and don't know how they think. Instead of fighting &/or moving they chose to collaborate."

Not only this, but the stuff they sell just isn't anything spectacular, or even theirs. The XD line of pistols is literally the Croatian made HS2000 that they import under license from HS Produkt and brand as their own. The M1A is pretty sub par compared to other .308 rifles at its price point. People only buy it because it looks cool, or because they don't know about the other options. Also, it's just a copy of a rifle (using foreign made parts) that was invented in the 50's, and isn't a design of their own. Name ONE gun that Springfield sells that is entirely their design (protip: you can't).

There are many other slim options out there, now (and in .45), if that's what you're after [I assume so, or there is no reason to be looking at an XDs, at all].
Hold a shield. WAY more ergonomic and comfortable to carry.

It's one of Croatia's first made pistols and the grandpops of the HS2000. Then there's the HS9 which is would be considered the pops of the HS2000. For some reason, I'm finding the HS9 in aussie websites for sale than in US but you may find it in the secondary market

Do you understand how incredibly hard it is to undo gun legislation? Look at shit like Lautenburg, if your gf just says you tried to hurt her you're a "wife beater" and unable to buy a gun forever. Or the closed machine gun registry. Or fucking California. And there are people on this fucking board right now who support this shit. Fuck them, and fuck Ruger and any other traitors.

Kind of like reformed felons of white collered crimes? Oh wait, they still have had their rights stolen from them. Companies like this should pay the appropriate price for their fuckery, which is eternal shame and removing 2 gun control acts for every 1 that they were for before they are forgiven.

The gun business should be not just a way for these fucks to make a buck off us and shit on us when it suits them. It should be a lifetime commitment to the cause and those who do so will be rewarded with wealth if their product is quality.

Wanna know why "fuds" are so mad? Because they got dicked, dicked hard when you were still sucking at a tit. This isnt anything of my age or yours. Just a fact that the old timers have seen this shit happen once, and here you are "Oh its all fucking ok. No big deal"

Your argument is a massive failure. Like you. No where is there a comment of reparations. Now I am pretty sure you are part of that whole "antifa" bullshit ive read about, with members talking about raiding the "right wing boards" to include /k/
>>
>>33836040
It's not about the reparations it's about imputing people WHO HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE INFRACTION.

Now stop fucking up this thread about two ACTUALLY CURRENT traitor companies and their shenanigans. I swear I'm starting to think you're a fucking paid shill trying to dilute the seriousness of the current situation with your bullshit. either way I'm done engaging you. Troll someone else.
>>
>>33835988
Ok. STOP BEING A KEKOLD AND SUPPORTING GUN COMPANIES WHO HAVE IN THE PAST OR PRESENTLY ARE SUPPORTING GUN CONTROL LEGISLATION OF ANY KIND.

>>33836016
You keep derailing the thread and intentionally misleading people to believe that people who don't want to reward cocksuckers who destroy our rights is the same as supporting reparations for blacks. Fuck you, Ruger shill, take your worthless 10-22 and ar and shove them up your ass, faggot
>>
It's super interesting watching the recently released videos on youtube with the "springfield armory" keywords. The shill channels are outright labeling themselves as such left and right. It's breddy good education on who has principles.
>>
>>33829267
That's what I don't get. Why wouldn't the lobbying group just remain opposed if they knew it'd fail? What do Springfield and RRA gain by this bill being passed and being exempt, as opposed to the bill not passing at all?
>>
>>33836040
Point being, don't punish those today for sins of yesterday when those of today have nothing to do with it.

Ruger, since Bill died, has done a 180 and produces the scary salt weapons with gun supporting higher ups. The time of beating Ruger with a stick is over, now that they've changed and need a carrot to continue such behavior. This is very basic behavior modification, and it applies to companies as well.

The current situation with SA and RRA is to beat them hard with a stick, as this goes well beyond scary salt guns on the 90s/00s. If they wish to be in good graces, they'll need to overhaul their higher ups.
>>
>>33836094
They gain a competitive advantage in IL. And if somehow it did pass against all odds they would have lost a bunch of money having to comply.

I don't think they had one single thought that there would be any repercussions from this. I think they got so used to swimming in the cesspool that is IL politics that the idea of anyone having principles beyond their own bottom line is not something they can comprehend.

Their statements basically confirm they have no fucking idea the level of shitstorm they have created.

NRA is irrelevant just like they were during the S&W debacle. The gun rags(NRAs included( shilled for fucking months trying to get gun people back on board with S&W. Didn't work.

Anyone with half a brain knows the NRA at this point is a for-profit company and not the civil rights organization they should be. Gun owners are by nature some of the most self-reliant people in this county.

DINDU NUFFIN PART DEUX ELECTRIC FUCKALOO:


After further review, Rock River Arms, Inc.® (RRA) is immediately severing all ties with the Illinois Firearms Manufacturers Association (IFMA). We feel that IFMAs integrity is compromised and we will notbe a part of the organization. We trusted that contributions and resources provided to IFMA by RRA were
being used to promote and uphold our 2nd Amendment values. IFMAs actions have destroyed that trust.

For more than twenty years, RRA has actively opposed gun control legislation at the local, state, and federal levels. We have supported and provided monetary and product donations to multiple pro-gun organizations including NRA, NSSF, ISRA and countless others. We have attended rallies and spoken at educational events on behalf of gun owners rights. Our employees have collected signatures, written letters and e-mails, called legislators offices, as well as attended events, meetings and hearings in
Springfield, Illinois.

What we learned, however, was that we are better at manufacturing firearms and accessories than playing political games at the state capitol. So, we began to utilize the services of lobbyists, first through other organizations and then in 2009, we partnered with several other manufacturers to form IFMA.

Prior to our further review, we believed that the organization had accurately represented us. We feel that IFMAs actions have compromised its integrity. While their actions may be standard practices at the capitol, backdoor politics and convoluted deal-making are counter to the way we do business and lead
our lives.

I sincerely apologize for my lack of direct engagement in IFMAs governance and subsequent actions, as well as the abandonment gun owners are feeling.

There's really no reason to sell a gun you already have unless you're just an emotional bitch. SA already has your money from that gun. Now you could rationalize selling it by the idea that someone looking to buy that gun would buy your cheaper used one instead of a NIB gun so then SA gets fucked out of a sale. But that's the only reason I can see to sell right now.

You punish those who sin, but you also reward those who repent. If you don't, then there's no reason why they *would* repent, and they'll just keep sinning.

Also, a couple of deep blue state outliers aside, support for gun control has been steadily dropping for decades. The high water mark was the AWB in the early 90s - while we still have to be vigilant, it's unlikely that we will see anything close anytime soon, at least not on a federal level.

They know all they have to do is have a $500 cuck edition AR or something and everyone is like "ok all is forgiven".

I see a problem with the answers to this question: what sells a shitload of useful guns and has a clean sheet? I'm counting out ruger because imo once you fuck up you are not clean. I think the only way to teach them is once a guy like Bill fucks up, kill his company by boycott amd make them start again. You can save some money buying their ar55shit if you want but I assume two things:

1. Rahowa: you're going to want a step up from bargain shit anyways
2. No Rahowa: we're eventually going to want to straighten out our suppliers, so really leverage social media to get them in line.

This said, most of the things I see here are niche or expensive. Who domestically is making good 9 and 45 carry pistols, good affordable 12ga, good affordable bolt action 308, and good affordable semi autos of any rifle caliber? I'm talking good like 6920 or bcm is good for an ar, not like dd is good. And better than psa ars or leltec pistols.
