Italians Sold Out by Their Manufacturer's

Postby Jakeiscrazy » Tue, 26 Jul 2011 19:05:48

Apparently Italians have been sold out by their own Italian gun makers. They lobbied in FAVOR of a "black rifle" import ban.

Didn't gun makers in New England support import bans years ago? And it backfired?
So rattle my bones all over the stones, I'm only a beggar-man whom nobody owns. Oh, see how words as old as sin, fit me like a glove.

I'm here and here I'll stay.

Yeah, it was called the Gun Control Act. And it didn't really backfire on them, as they had close to a monopoly for over a decade. (Their own shoddy business practices hurt them more than a monopoly could ever help.)
