Default LaRue just went Barrett

http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=699437
NEWS RELEASE:
02/08/2012 LEANDER, TX.

Updated Policy for State and Local Agency Law Enforcement Sales:

Due to the recent and numerous new Anti-gun/Anti-2nd Amendment laws passed and/or pending across our country, LaRue Tactical has been forced to reconsider how we provide products to state and local agencies.

Effective today, in an effort to see that no legal mistakes are made by LaRue Tactical and/or its employees, we will apply all current State and Local Laws (as applied to civilians) to state and local law enforcement / government agencies. In other words, LaRue Tactical will limit all sales to what law-abiding citizens residing in their districts can purchase or possess.

State and local laws have always been a serious focus of this firm, and we are now dovetailing that focus with the constitutional rights of the residents covered in their different areas by the old and new regulations.

We realize this effort will have an impact on this firm's sales - and have decided the lost sales are less danger to this firm than potential lawsuits from erroneous shipments generated by something as simple as human error.

Thanks in advance for your understanding.


Mark LaRue

I respect them and I understand it, but it screws me or at least my agency which will then trickle down to me.

Can't argue with that philosophy. I know Barrett had refused to sell to California for a number of years, but as of recently, 2 of my LGS' have the 338 Lapua Mag MRAD's for sale, priced at $6K respectively.

My son who has met him and spent time with him on more than one occaision, says he is one of the Good Guys. This proves it.

I am personally well acquainted with his "Beverage Entry Tool", a must have accessory.

All the firearms manufacturers should jump on board with this.

He's definitely a stand-up guy.

I'll do my part, by buying more of his stuff.
