We do not halt sales to individual officers even in problematic states [More]I have no idea how cop purchases work and if they vary from state-to-state. Do they go directly to the manufacturer after getting department clearance? If they go through FFLs, it would seem simply a matter of not shipping any verboten items to any dealer in that state.
ArmaLite is not winning itself any friends over this, and Pat Raley needs to be called into the head office and reamed. If I'd have responded to a public inquiry that way when I was in sales, I'd have expected to get canned.
