    Does a man have to play with dolls to own a doll company? You might be making too much of this.

    What if the billion comes from some dummy Corp set up by the government and they after getting the buy start shutting it down? We know Obama and his government have stolen many , many tens of billions. And we know they'll do anything to disarm us. Not that far fetched to see them buying up gun manufacturers to later just shut down.. After all they bought billions of bullets to raise process and limit the buying access to law abiding citizens over the coming years!! --Tyr

    I think a more likely scenario would be a gov't straw purchase of the facilities, then hand it over to a union. With several manufacturers expressing the possibility of not entering into anymore gov't contracts, I'm sure the gov't is looking for a dedicated supplier. Arming all those non-combat bureaucracies with automatic weapons; EPA, USDA, USPS, FDA, FEMA, etc.; must be difficult.

    tailfins. For the sake of argument here. Let's just suppose the person who wants to buy that Gun maker, happens to be a GEORGE SOROS, or a HARRY REID, or even a BARRACK OBAMA.

    What would that do to the gun business in America, or around the world?

    All hypothetical, but just imagine someone with that kind of POLITICAL power, and MONEY turned loose on everything to bring down America, and American business.

    Where have we heard of such things before???

    Suppose it is a straw man purchase. It would still be legal.
