RE: Colt Bought, Important or not?

in Outdoors and more3 years ago

One of the good things about this particular purchase is that at least it was bought by another well-known and respected gun company, CZ. CZ actually has a large factory in Kansas already. While it's a shame that another long-term U.S. company is selling out, at least it's a decent one that makes quality products.

Sort:  

Yeah that's good to hear. I think I remember you mentioning CZ in some comment in the past but you know more than I do in that regard! Going to another good company is certainly better than going to a shitty one or to dust altogether.

The article mentioned they were building a factory I think, so it's good to see they might have two places!

I run CZ handguns, among a few others, and have always been happy with them. Whilst Colt's sell-out is lamentable I agree with you at least it didn't go to...

  • Skymen Cleaning Equipment Shenzhen Co. Ltd
  • Ningbo Yosec Industrial Co. Ltd
  • Huachenyang Technology Co. Ltd

...And the like, over in China.

Yup, in the midst of an economic war. If only people realised and the government stepped in. Free market enterprise has opened the door to this.

However, not much a government can do when private parties give up their assets for $$$

The long term effects are massive. Governments should be stopping it

The government (I mean the Australian government here) is probably far too busy cashing in themselves (let's just call it selling-out) along with the private sector to give a crap. Sad but true I think.

Selling off farms, ports and vast tracts of land to the Chinese...Point in case: The Landbridge Group, a large private company based in Rizhao city in Shandong Province in China operates Darwin Port. And...The Merredin aerodrome in Western Australia leased for 100 years to the Chinese, Southern West Australian Flying College owned by China Southern Airlines (PRC).

Just two I could mention. Enough said.

One day when no longer confidential I will shout you a !BEER and tell you more.

Id like to tell you about a recent story where a friend of a friend whose cousins with the bloke next door I know got something stopped and things are escalating. It was as I was told the first time this company had a no.

They will fight it in court and who knows what will happen but the message was sent clearly. Straya first, if straya can't then we don't.
