Following through on their promise to leave the state if Colorado were to pass new gun control laws including a magazine capacity limit, Magpul is shifting their manufacturing out of the state (http://www.dailycamera.com/erie-news/ci_23139158/erie-based-magpul-begins-making-ammunition-magazines-outside).
From now on, not a single magazine will be manufactured or assembled in Colorado. ”We have started making PMAGs outside CO for the first time ever. The sights are made outside CO. We are actively moving forward with moving other items out.”
Magpul had originally planned to include more details about the shift but it coincided with the Boston Marathon bombing, and as such, they’re waiting for a better time to talk shop (https://www.facebook.com/magpul/posts/588404997838520).
“We had some communications regarding our pending move and the process of choosing our new locations to put out this week, but the events in Boston make this a poor time for that, and we will hold off those announcements until later. Our support is with the residents and first responders who are dealing with the tragedy of loss and the fractured lives created by the acts perpetrated by these evil individuals. Stay alert out there … there are many in this world who wish harm on our society. Meet them with strength so as to discourage their ilk from attempting to prey on others.”
Magpul has not disclosed where they have relocated to, although previously they said they were looking at a neighboring state (http://www.guns.com/2013/02/26/the-state-of-colorado-part-ii-magpul/).
