Default Good and Bad business decisions by gun companies:

Sometimes a company does something great, sometimes....they suck.

Heres some I see:

Bad: S&W adopting Internal Locks. There is pretty much nobody who likes them and many people boycott for some reason.

Bad: Ruger. Jumping In bed wit the liberals, supporting the AWB, then going even farther just selling 5-round mini 14 mags and nuetering guns.

Good: Ruger. Ditching bill rugers ideas, introducing cool new guns, bringing back standard capacity mags and setting up a rep for best customer service in the business.

Bad: Dan Wesson. they were known to have the highest quality 1911s in their price range. The CBOB was the most loved.....wildly popular. they discontinued half their line this year and introduce expensive as hell new guns. Epic Fail.

Good: Savage. introducing the accutrigger and accustock, making much better rifles, for not much more cost. Excellent rifles/

Bad: SIG. The whole magazine issue where they were selling with one instead of 2. Since fixed.

What have you seen that you liked, and whats made you think "WTF?"
