Gun Control states drove gunmakers to Free America, costing Job, Taxes, People, opportunities.
Gun Control states did enough dicky things, that gunmakers have moved manufacturing to Free America. This costs the fascist states direct taxes, jobs, people, those people's income and real-estate taxes, opportunities, security (now they have to import) and so on. The taxpayers of the state might not be bright enough to realize how much it cost them, but it cost them.

A region of Western Massachusetts and Connecticut had so many rife with gunmakers that it was known as Gun Velley. It helped make America into a global power. People don't realize that the reason Henry Ford was able to mass manufacture the automobile, was because American Gun Makers (Springfield Armory, etc), had taught the world all those techniques first.

We wouldn't be the country we are, or arguably still a county, if it wasn't for them.

In 2010, Massachusetts and Connecticut (along with New York and New Hampshire), produced nearly half the firearms in the entire country. By 2021 it's <18% of the firearms being produced. We went from 3.8M guns produced in 2000, and thanks to gun grabbers like Barack Obama threatening to take our gun rights away, this drove up sales and explosive (289%) growth to 11M guns per year in 2021. Not to mention 31,150 jobs. While some of the shift was growth, much of it is that these manufacturers moved their headquarters, plants and people. Why would you want to be in an abusive relationship with a state that hates you?

  • SIG Sauer and Sturm, Ruger & Co, still remain. Barely...
  • Springfield Armory converted most of their remaning capacity to being a museum. (Remember how things used to be).
  • Whalley (L.W. Seecamp) makes a couple of pistols, that they can't afford to get on the local "rosters"... meaning you can make their guns their, you just can't own them.

But:

  • Kimber Manufacturing relocated from New York to Alabama (2020).
  • Smith and Wesson is moving after 170 years to Tennessee (to be mostly complete by 2023)
  • Troy Industries moved its 75-person parts company to Tennessee (2020)
  • Remington Arms moved to LaGrange, Georgia (2021)[1]
  • Colt and CZ Group are moving their headquarters to Arkansas (2019)

Organizations that I felt the need to comment on (more often on the negs than the positives). But there's good/bad in all.

Slacktivism
Slacktivism is about pretending you're fully woke, but never being able to measure up. If you are fully woke, you are soon out of business.
