Press Release: Olympic Arms, Inc. Announces New York State Sales Policy

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Olympic Arms is a staunch believer in and defender of the Constitution
of the United States, and with special attention paid to the Bill of
Rights that succinctly enumerates the security of our Divinely given
Rights. One of those Rights is that to Keep and Bear Arms.

Legislation recently passed in the State
of New York outlaws the AR15 and many other firearms, and will make it
illegal for the good and free citizens of New York to own a large
selection of legal and safe firearms and magazines. We feel as though
the passage of this legislation exceeds the authority granted to the
government of New York by its citizens, and violates the Constitution of
the United States, ignoring such SCOTUS rulings as District of Columbia
v. Heller - 554, U.S. 570 of 2008, McDonald v. Chicago - 561 U.S. 3025
of 2010, and specifically the case of United States v. Miller – 307 U.S.
174 of 1939.

Due the passing of this legislation, Olympic Arms
would like to announce that the State of New York, any Law Enforcement
Departments, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders within the State
of New York, or any New York State government entity or employee of
such an entity - will no longer be served as customers.

In
short, Olympic Arms will no longer be doing business with the State of
New York or any governmental entity or employee of such governmental
entity within the State of New York - henceforth and until such
legislation is repealed, and an apology made to the good people of the
State of New York and the American people.

If the leaders of
the State of New York are willing to limit the right of the free and law
abiding citizens of New York to arm themselves as they see fit under
the Rights enumerate to all citizens of the United State through the
Second Amendment, we feel as though the legislators and government
entities within the State of New York should have to abide by the same
restrictions.

This action has caused a division of the people
into classes: Those the government deems valuable enough to protect
with modern firearms, and those whose lives have been deemed as having
less value, and whom the government has decided do not deserve the right
to protect themselves with the same firearms. Olympic Arms will not
support such behavior or policy against any citizen of this great
nation.

Olympic Arms invites all firearms manufacturers,
distributors and firearms dealers to join us in this action to refuse to
do business with the State of New York. We must stand together, or we
shall surely fall divided.

Sincerely,

Brian Schuetz
President
Olympic Arms, Inc.

 

I can only hope more companies join LaRue and Oylmpic Arms and start a ban on sales to rogue State and Local Governments.  What would be great is if ALL manufacturers of firearms and accessories and do this!!!

I can see it now. NY state would have to come to gun shows in VA to arm their LEO.

I could see old Bloomberg poop a squeally worm, if LEAs in NY were actually forced to buy new equipment at  Gun Shows!!!  It would be justice though!!!

[hipower]

I've an old Olympic I was considering selling. Now I think I'll keep it.

 

We should all write or email Brian and Olympic and thank him for a courageous stand. :usa:

Very good!

[ShamGlock]

Well done indeed!

[Wingshooter]

Excellent. They'll get my business because of this.

We need other MFGs to follow their lead

[npgunner]

Excellent. The next time I'm in the market for anything gun related, will go to OA first for sure. I absolutely support and love this decision, and can only hope others will follow suit.

[Steelharp]

I'm not an AR guy... but I believe I want an Oly, now.

[Mike.357]

Those the government deems valuable enough to protect
with modern firearms, and those whose lives have been deemed as having
less value,

 

this is the entire reason we need 2A.   This is exactly why "they" want to take our guns.

[TripleDigitRide]

Only if all other manufacturers would follow.

[jphillips63]

I can see it now. NY state would have to come to gun shows in VA to arm their LEO.

Wouldn't it be illegal to sell to a NY resident even if they were out of state at a gun show or a local gun shop? Seriously if its illegal for them to own them then it should be illegal to sell them to anyone inside of NY?

Now that's stepping up to the plate being an American patriot and being a leader in the industry.

 

I wish the ammunition manufacturers would take a closer look at the DHS and the only possible reason for such a mammoth ammo stockpile.
