    I didn't say I deal with the business that has the most political view point. I said I deal with politically active dealers. I should've been more precise in my wording and said "I do business with dealers whose politics align with mine".

    I think Post 61 by Carpe Diem sums the likely reasoning up fairly well

    Another ballsup by police

    i think that it is often a help to them that so many criminals are so thick

    Just because a store has no opinion doesnt mean they dont, maybe their policy is not to comment therefore be seen as the H&F's stand point. You see when someone in any job that is part of a company unless they own it themselves are caught in a rock and a hard place as anything they say can be deemed as "company line" when it is personal comment. Just seems odd that Stretch spoke to a member of the H&F team and now dont shop H&F, or will they stop and ask each member of that branch their political viewpoint before moving to the next gun shop??

    My opinion is based on someone asking H&F head office for their position, an getting an apolitical/abstaining reply. Not me personally speaking to one pleb in one store and judging the entire chain on that.

    So you or "someone" will be ringing head office of all the "hunting" stores to get their political view, and should they all come up with the same, what then. I would imagine if any of them were interested then they would have voiced that already??? Maybe none want to be involved in case it hurts business?? Interesting that this is also formed on a 3rd hand conversation as opposed to horses mouth, but each to their own

    I was privy to the email reply, so not really hearsay. I've identified a few dealers that ARE actively fighting for the future of our hobby, so no, I don't intend to canvas every other dealer.

    Yeah you're right. I did submit a request asking how many they ordered, how many they recieved, and the unit cost of each booklet.

    We shall see xD

    I am sure they knew very well what they were doing when printing these.
