I am a bit reluctant to buy into the spin that Dan Cooper has no monetary interest in Cooper Firearms.


It's not "spin" , the same guy who owns Wilson barrels now owns ALL of Cooper Arms. Dan Cooper owns no part of it and has not been seen at the plant since November of 2008.

The Obama flap merely hastened a buyout that had been in the works for many months.
