    It's nice to see someone pushing back against this ridiculous gun control crap. I wish more manufacturers would get on board with this.

    Today, the State of New York did one of the most despicable acts ever perpetrated by any state by asking New York banks, financial institutions and insurance companies to stop doing business with the gun and ammo industry.

    While it may not make a difference to New York, Hornady will not knowingly allow our ammunition to be sold to the Government of the State of NY or any NY agencies. Their actions are a blatant and disgusting abuse of office and we won’t be associated with a government that acts like that. They should be ashamed.

    -Steve Hornady, president of Hornady Manufacturing Company

    Wasn't Barrett not selling rifles to state agencies in California? I think I remember their rationale being they would not sell to the government what the citizen was not allowed to own.

    You would think there are Federal laws that would prohibit these types of actions? Maybe some one should take the banks to court and challenge this, kinda like when the gay couple sued the bakery for refusing to bake a wedding cake for them and won! Bakery is now out of business.

    USAA Bank. I would be surprised if USAA joined the nonsense as they really cater to current and former members of the military.

    That was their original mindset but they seem to be branching out these days to friends of friends cousins hairdresser was military.
