Remember Benelli taking guns & dealership away from them because they were selling under MAP. They were the best place to buy a Benelli BTW. The rest of the story was:

After a year or less, Benelli seeing the number of lost sales from Whitakers they went to them & said here's your distributorship back & sell them however you want to, we just want you back.

Them being not that far from the Mississippi flyway & with the reputation they had, Benelli boo booed by messing with them in the first place & they knew it.
