Want A .50 Cal Rifle, New York LEOs? Pound Sand.

Via Mare at the Splitters comes this heartwarming tale of solidarity among the very small population of manufacturers of rifles chambered for .50 BMG.

XXXX,

Yes, I got the message and tried to return the call but got no answer. I appreciate your interest in our BFG-50A; I’m sure it would be an excellent addition to your department’s arsenal. Unfortunately, we have a policy of selling to state law enforcement agencies only what is allowed to be sold to private citizens in that state. Since the passage of the NY SAFE act, the BFG-50A is considered an assault weapon and as such is no longer available to private citizens in the state of New York. Therefore we have to respectfully decline to supply your department with BFG-50A rifles.

Regards,
Mark Serbu

Of course, Ronnie Barrett won't sell to them either.

The reverse-boycott continues apace. Well done, Mr. Serbu.

Also continuing apace ... the Ace-a-Thon. Hobo disposal is expensive, you know.
