About time. Springfield armory and a few others could say the same to Illinois. SA inc just opened a huge new mfg facility last year and I was surprised they invested like that here.
We have quite a few gun mfg jobs in the 30 mile radius of rock island county, Henry county and bureau county area.
What we have here is failure to communicate.

I get the feeling they are waiting for the political pendulum to swing back hard right, but I think it's a fool's errand. The only way Illinois won't remain firmly blue is Chicago suddenly sliding into Lake Michigan.

Good on Smith for telling Mastachoosits to kiss it.
