This is Sad

Sit back and talk with friends. Same rules as before. Rule #1-Relax with friends on the front or back porch.
Rule #2-No Politics, religion or anything above a G level.

Parent company to many ammunition makers, including Federal, CCI, and Remington.
Also gun cleaning brand Hoppes.
I hope they do not get US government clearance.

Thread fixed: “Texas oil billionaire jumps into fight for Vista's ammo unit. Why it matters: JDH's surprise move comes as Vista is nearing a shareholder vote on a separate, $2 billion deal it struck for the unit with a Czech arms dealer that is currently under U.S. government review.“

Yes it is beyond sad, and very dangerous for the country long term. It is also sad that you did not include the subject in the title, especially from a prolific poster. I thought your grannie had died. A long url gets altered so you have no clue what it is about.

Didnt know I was in a classroom. You still read the post and saw what it was about. Why dont you take your derogatory comments to a PM instead of being a jerk like you always are

Very rare that we see abrasive responses to posts on this forum. I hope it remains very rare...if at all.
It was a rather unnecessary response to an informative post.
