IF you do not vote then you have no say in anything political. Are you going to fight for what you have or let them take it from you. If you don't vote... STFU !! I am not saying any of these guys are closing but if the dems win we and the whole country are SCREWED! Join something like GOA or someone not afraid to fight for us. NOT THE NRA. Ray

I would believe it of Bass Pro and Cabela's. But not about Burris and Leupold.... I also stumble upon the conviction in different places. Just last week I was across the country and two well established gun shops I have frequented for decades, been in business multi-generational since the late thirties and mid forties, are closing just after Christmas this year regardless. Even a friend of mine that owns a national chain of chicken joints (not chik-filet) is cashing it in and possibly one Major Southern grocery chain. Another thing too, RV and Camper sales are through the roof and rural real estate is selling like crazy. I talk to cattle ranchers and farmers that are about done too. Why would all those successful people hang around with a dumfuqk like you? +1

Y’all better start buying certain items now.
BassPro is going to close many stores right away if Trump loses and plans to revive “Herter’s” with only select items and clothing via catalog or online.
They will be closing and demolishing their hotel resort in Memphis TN
Mossberg and Ruger plan to saturate the market with inexpensive handguns the rest of the summer and fall.
Kitterley, Bud’s, CDNN, and Sportsmanssupply superstore, folding too.
And Hobby Lobby Dear God not hobby lobby!

Ok, if Leupold folds, what scopes will the military/cops buy? S&B's??

They are going to do that anyway because they have already f-ed up the Cabelas line of products and can no longer sustain the overhead of all those properties. That was probably in the business plan when they took over Cabela's in the first place. I would bet COVID has moved the timeline up a bit.

Yeah, that is a good plan. Let's take millions of dollars of real estate and make it worth a tenth of its value! SMART! That will show those Dems. For sure! Your Uncle Johnny is a pretty savvy businessman. Savvy businessmen don't make dumbass moves like that.

All three of these companies are closing up shop if Trump is not elected. The big boys had a meeting at Johnny Morris’s place.
Bass Pro and Cabela’s is closing, Savage Arms, possibly Ruger, Summit, HSS, and a host of other firearms and sporting companies as well as some restaurant chains. With all due respect, you've been an idiot from way back...

Two questions JohnnyLoco. Do you have a subscription to National Enquirer? Will you share where you live in Texas? I want to avoid drinking from the local water supply should I visit your burg.
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

Perhaps some of the CEOs decided to let the word out that they would be closing shop if Trump doesn’t win. What better way to motivate their employees, the family members of those employees, and anyone else impacted by that employment, to vote for Trump. One would hope that anyone employed in those industries would have figured it out on there own, but people can be obtuse.
Of course, profit motive being profit motive, none of this will come to pass. They won’t close, no matter who wins ... at least not voluntarily.

In that case, you would think that it would make the news. If that many people knew, it wouldn't be a secret. Yet, someone named "JohnnyLoco" is the only one who has the scoop. Even the entire premise is wrong. Those corporations are involved in much more than guns. There's still binos, spotting scopes for the optics companies, along with LE/Military sales. Cabelas and Bass Pro still have fishing, camping, etc. They'd still make money. Besides, profitable companies just don't liquidate.

So which gun company were you a "custodial engineer" for, anyways? If you're really retired, you can tell us.
