Marlin Firearms closing??

[Sniper-T]

I just got this via email, and haven't verified it, perhaps one with strong google-shway can do that...

Marlin bought & CLOSED by Soros ..WE ARE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE !!
To:




I am not sure about the acquisitions but it is known what is driving Mr
Soros goals.


------------------------------




GEORGE SOROS--------ALSO OWNS DIE-BOLT COMPANY THAT MAKES THE
VOTING MACHINES-------------------------------WOW !
FOR YOUR INFORMATION

Soros has been manipulating every move of Obama, ever since he came on the
scene.
Not many people had ever heard of Obama before then. The democrats know
this. . .
Just wait until all of this disarmament is over & see who's out of a job, &
broke as the rest of us.


*This is very alarming **&** should be of great concern to ALL!! *

*MARLIN FIREARMS has been purchased by G**eorge** Soros **&*

* IS CLOSING ITS' DOORS.*Even if you do not own a gun, you need to know
this.

This was confirmed by Snopes.com .
I ALSO checked this out on *"Truth or Fiction"* who verified it.
(*Some trust them more than Snopes.*)

Marlin Firearms is already closing its' doors!
They're doing it to us, America.! WAKE UP.!!!

This needs to be spread to all gun owners & sportsmen/women.
We cannot rely on the media to inform us of these types of matters.
Something you may not know that's happening .......
Who's buying the companies that have been manufacturing guns.???

For the last several years, a company called *The Freedom Group* has been
buying up both
gun & ammunition manufacturers. Some of the companies are *Bushmaster*,
*Marlin*,
*Remington*, *DPMS*, *Dakota Arms* & even *H&R*.

Some people worry that this *Freedom Group* is going to control most of
the firearms companies
in the United States. If you control the manufacturers, you can decide to
stop selling to civilians.
What a perfect way to control guns.

Now, if you do some digging, you'll see that *The Freedom Group* is owned
by a company called
*Cerberus Capital Management*.

Guess who controls Cerberus.??? *GEORGE SOROS*, Obama's chief,
far-left-wing financier.!!!
He wants to restrict or ban, all civilian guns. Please pass this on to
all your freedom loving friends.

This needs to come out in public. Why have we not heard about this in
the *"mainstream"* media?
I would think this would be BIG news. (*Soros also owns Progressive
Insurance*).

If you don't know who George Soros is, you need to do some
research. This One-World Government atheist, backed Mr.
Obama, with millions of dollars. Obama is just a puppet on
a string, controlled by Soros.

Send this to every gun owner you know! And everyone else, too.

total BS .... every company even remotely associated with the firearms biz is doing gangbusting biz .... if anything these billionaires are buying up the stock and goosing the Obammy rumors to raise stock prices ...

[Sniper-T]

been hearing a fair amount of buzz on local forums about this, and apparently the thought is... is that snopes is NOT an authority about firearms related issues, that their owners are leftwing, and taint the truth somewhat at times....

again, 100% heresay, but worth checking out if someone has more time than I do.

I consider Snopes suspect at best for anything pertaining to right wing topics.

Marlin closing? First I've heard of that.
Yes, the freedom group has bought up those companies listed, and maybe a few more.
Freedom group is run be cerberus financial. Best I could find is that soros does have something to do with cerberus, but doesn't just "own" it.

However, one fact is that freedom group has basically butt-fucked all of those companies, and they haven't been able to put out hardly anything of quality since.

[izzyscout21]

Gunfixr is right. Freedom group has turned everything it has touched into one pig steaming pile.

You guys know Harrington & Richardson, one of the oldest gunmaking firms in the US?

Well, they make a whole line of single shot, break open rifles and shotguns.
Seems they are discontinuing their line of rifled bore slug guns, made in 12 and 20ga. These are well known as very accurate guns, shooting sabot slugs quite accurately, essentially a "short range rifle".
Probably not real popular out west, where ranges are long, but here in the east, where woods keeps things up close, they take down lots of deer every year. We can sell all we can get pretty much every year.

What can you say? There are lots of rumors that America's gun companies are being bought out and destroyed from within on purpose, as a sort of "reverse gun grab". There is the fact that in America, companies of any sort are run for the purpose of satisfying the shareholders, as opposed to satisfying the consumers, the way it was.
So, while I don't know if the gun company rumors are true, but either way, we the gun buying public are the ones losing out.
