I don't really even care, I have never been a fan of the companies choices in leadership.

1911 and ARs have been made by everyone else for a long time, and most other companies do it better.

They screwed the civilian market for decades ah well.

Same old story.

Build a product that the public can get anywhere, and do nothing to incentivize them buying it from you, so when your government sales flounder you'll be eaten alive.

Their "union" probably didn't help much.

Yup. This is the way the government works to limit choices. Award contracts so that you do not have the capacity to do work for any other market, then jerk them so one more gun company goes out of business. Who is next?

One less choice is one step to less freedom of choice.
