    I am sure that when they are ready to make an announcement, they will.

    A lack of action or communication makes the threat loose credibility.... I'm all for these companies, I just want the boneheads that made the anti statements to realize there is a cost and it is real!

    I think they'll move or have already.

    So what you are saying is that because Magpul has not made a large public announcement or completed their intended move, in 60 days no less, that it makes them less credible and that their threat was "loose." I am sure you have moved from an apartment, house or barracks room at one point in your life and should have some type of understanding about what all is involved, but have you ever moved a multi-million dollar company with over 200 full time employees, plus all of your infrastructure, all while drastically altering the business of all of your subcontractors? I'm sure you have not, so why does them not moving in a short amount of time make them less credible and their threat "loose"? They have stated that they are moving on numerous occasions and have already moved some of their manufacturing and that they will complete the move in the future. Uprooting 200 employees without disrupting their lives is kind of difficult and is something that you just can't do overnight, let alone in two months.

    I think we really need to step back and think about all, or at least some, of the factors involved here.

    Statements were made that suggested immediate action. Folks I have talked are not believing anything is in the works. In other words no cost for the action. I understand the complexity involved, but I just want to be able to point those who were for such anti gun laws to some sign that the moves are real.
