Why not move to an extremely red state? You can't trust Georgia with the Atlanta area.


Fulton County elections admin is done effective 12/31. Let's see if that county can figure out a way to get on track. Doubt it but who knows.

GA is the MN of the South.

They have a huge Remington ammo plant in Lonoke Arkansas, I think they actually just announced an expansion not long back. Something like the 3rd largest ammo maker in the world or something like that.

Lord, I wouldn't move it to Ga unless they plan on increased sales to the Atlanta gangs.

I tend to agree here. Georgia is a nano second away from Stacy Abrams being governor. Then Georgia will be no better than New Jersey and Remington will wish they moved to Florida.

Remington should've went just a few miles west of LaGrange, to a real conservative State, just like Kimber did.

Remington had a plant in Little Rock till a few years ago. Made ammunition, I believe. No idea why they left.




They're back wide open, Vista bought the ammo namesake and factory

Kimber has already moved from Yonkers, NY to Troy, Alabama.

Both of my Kimber pistols still have the Yonkers stamp. I’m hoping that’ll eventually increase their value.

Actually, Remington (the part now owned by Vista Outdoor) still has a plant in Lonoke, AR. I'm sure it seemed like the plant was no longer there as ammo production was down 90% at the end of the bankruptcy.

Source?

I’m seeing the GOP has 106 of 180 seats and has the majority.

These municipal elections are worth noting but don’t mean the legislature or gubernatorial elections will necessarily follow suit. These are very small areas.

That being said, Atlanta has the potential to ruin Georgia’s federal elections.
