EXTRACTS: In one
sign of the price states may pay for restricting gun rights, more than a dozen
states are jostling to land a Colorado firearms company that has vowed to leave
the state if the governor signs into law tough gun-control
legislation.
“Our company could not, in good conscience, continue to manufacture our products in a state where law-abiding citizens are prohibited from purchasing and owning them,” Mr. Fitzpatrick said in a statement. “The passage of this bill will do nothing to enhance public safety, but will force us to immediately begin taking our business to another state.”
Another Colorado company, Alfred Manufacturing Co. Inc., is likely to follow suit. Chief Executive Greg Alfred said in a letter this week to the General Assembly that the firm, which makes plastic magazine-ammunition cases and other gun accessories, will move all or part of its operation if the bill is signed, insisting that “we will plain and simply have no choice.”
