Rule #1 in the gun industry is to make something that is highly likely to be banned in the future.

Between 2009 and 2017 my family and I had to sleep in shifts to ensure Obama wouldn't be able to steal from us, and he still managed to get two antique derringers, a Barbie Starlight Adventure hunting rifle, and our copy of the Qur'an where every mention of Mohammad is crossed out and replaced with "butthead."

That's what they get for being idiots and not understanding the point of planned obsolescence.

If they were smart they would lobby HARD for gun control and gun buyback programs, making the government destroy millions of weapons. Then you can start selling everyone new weapons for a couple of years before repeating the cycle.

Remington is in a weird place in the market where if you care enough to not just buy the cheap lovely brands you're probably going to pony up the extra hundred or so and get some Bougie primo poo poo

The lol is likely pretty deep the more you dig. Known Democrats tended to invest in guns privately in the wake of their own public outcry. Likely made an artificial bubble by whipping up hype and increasing demand, then the second they lose a black president and dont have the woman in office and the R stooge sits down, that stock gets dumped like a trash fire, gutting the gun companies they may actually hate while profiting from its misery
