Unless you have a vote on the Board of Directors, or are a top management person, nobody knows all of the details of corporate decisions. Our firm often deals with complex and confidential corporate matters of which the public has no knowledge and even at that level there are facts and opinions that are unknown to us unless deemed relevant.

If the facts are not known (perhaps from the bankruptcy court documents, a BOD member, leaked documents, or information releases from the company) all else is speculation. A good old public bashing of a firearms company will not make the situation better for shooters. If there is a profitable hole in the market another company will step in to fill it.

It is saddening to see some of the older products go away but sometimes a different company will buy the brand name and make a better product for us. I think the Winchester brand is a good example.
