| Cheaper Than Dirt...Backtracking on Gun Stance (Posted on 2/16/13 at 2:18 am)
So, It looks like CTD was effected by their initial stance on the Sandy Hook tragedy. Now they are joining the list of gun manufacturers in restricting their sales to agencies.
This to me is evidence that the "Gun Lobby" is stronger than the media is leading the general public to believe and any gun legislation will be rammed down the public's throat with the help of the compliant media.
Also, it looks like CTD has indeed taken a hit from their initial stance and are trying to regain customers with this new narrative.

Cheaper Than Dirt Supports Citizens' 2nd Amendment Rights
Recently companies such as LaRue Tactical and Olympic Arms announced they will no longer sell prohibited items to government agencies and personnel in states denying civilians to own those same items. It has been and will continue to be Cheaper Than Dirt's policy not to sell prohibited items to government agencies and agents in states, counties, cities and municipalities that have enacted restrictive gun control laws against their citizens. We support and encourage other companies that share in this sentiment.

Honestly dont think there is anything they can do at this point. Way too many other reputable options.

I hope those pieces of shite sink and drown.
If they had the last part I needed for my build, I still wouldn't think about buying from them. The not selling arms was bad enough but the gouging pushed them over the edge. $80 frickin Pmags... Once again, frick em.

Their website traffic is up 102% from December. People are still buying shite from them. Brownells and Aim Surplus are up 125% in the same time period.

Disappointing but honestly does not surprise me that much. Too many people with more money than sense out there.

We need all the support we can get against the GOVT/MSM machine. If CTD is with us and will remain loyal, I welcome them.
