Re: Weatherby's Grand Opening in Wyoming
There are several States willing to take jobs away, from Commiefornia, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. Texas being one of them. I hope this starts a trend of gun manufacturers, fleeing places, that are front and center, of the movement, to do away with the 2A.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 7:24 pm The company which announced it's leaving California back on January 2018 held it's Grand Opening in Sheridan, WY

Not only will the jobs leave, but any employees bright along, will get the opportunity, to see what true freedom means.

Re: Weatherby's Grand Opening in Wyoming
I always wanted to own a 300 Weatherby Magnum.
On a different subject, I got to tour the Buck Knife factory in Idaho a few years ago.
It was an interesting tour where I got to see how they make their various types of knives.
Originally, they were a California company.

I am not sure how many are made in China, but they are still making knives in Idaho.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 9:09 pmI read their book (Buck Knives) a few years ago.

Re: Weatherby's Grand Opening in Wyoming
Yes. I didn't mean to imply they've switched all their knife making overseas. Economics drove them to transfer certain knives to the China factories according to a blog I read when I found some of them coming from China. Of course China has been making knock off Bucks for years, so I was wondering why they'd make a deal with them. Just found an article from 2009 stating they reduced their dependence on Chinese manufacture and they brought some production back (reduced from 50% to 30-35% in China) and increased workers here. read below.WildBill wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 5:47 amI am not sure how many are made in China, but they are still making knives in Idaho.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 9:09 pmI read their book (Buck Knives) a few years ago.

Re: Weatherby's Grand Opening in Wyoming
Sheridan is a good place for Weatherby.... I lived there back in the late 1970's and early 1980's until the coal boom went bust... I wish the company much success!
