Let me not even get on their stupid dealer relationships issues.

Sorry man.... I question Colts sanity on a regular basis. They over produce guns nobody wants while under producing guns people are dying to own. Someone needs to be fired over there.

I look at it this way..... the reason to hire illegals is the labor cost... BUT only 10% of the labor force you have being illegal due to costs would really not be all that much money in the end.. I'm starting to think BC is a victim of fraudulent documents For a few bucks an hour less it would only come out to maybe 4k a week tops in savings. When your payroll is at least $130,000 thousand a week (on the low end) the savings are insignificant.

Anyone here love 22mag revolvers?

According to Bear Creeks website they have 250 employees.... in all honesty out of 250 people for 30 to be illegal in a town with a large illegal community might not be all that rare. 300,000 foot facility ad 250 empoyee's I never would have guessed they were that large.

You would have been showered with praise then deleted from the forum.

Iv only seem a couple of the Colt's in the 8 years iv been a dealer.....

Not loving the color .

They might have.... Iv seen good fakes... but in the end the IRS always catches it.. Must learn Spanish.. You need a new guy.. Its possible but more likely was the company HR department and need for cheap labor

This is the biggest FACEPALM possible. How is it that a manufacture of firearms does not preform background checks on employee's. I know few companies use E-verify (for good reason). but seriously nothing at all? According to the report the investigation was triggered from Identity theft... (As if this is a surprise.) Its common for illegals (almost always) to use forms of ID that are fake or stolen. In any case it does not last long... the IRS will send notices that SS number does not show as valid to the employer. Was this a case of Look the other way so we can build $300.00 factory AR rifles and parts or did the company really not realize that its workforce were illegals. regardless of the reason its a fucking shame and shows how stupid they are. For ICE to do a raid of this type tells me there is MORE to this story... It cant just be for 30 Illegals or a few cases of Identity theft... They were using undercover vans to monitor the company.... this was a big investigation. On another note... WTF is up with that town... Bunch of stores closed in fear.... with signs.. Closed for Maintenance, Plumbing Problems.. etc etc Then to top of off a jerk off was Facebook living the event spewing his Immigrant Fake news and then mentioned ICE was lucky they had protective vests on... Well fuck him..... I would personally like to find out more about this asshole... He wore a radio on his chest and had a company name listed... Maybe Ice needs to raid that place as well. In the end I never used Bear Creek... Never Planned on using Bear Creek and Fuck Bear Creek. Me thinks they will be gone unless someone can explain WTF went on in that place.

Thanks for being part of the problem Can someone verify jacks a Legal Citizen? Just messing with ya bro... but seriously.. I guess everyone should ask... how exactly did they make such cheap factory ar's. i guess we know

Correct, While the lower end ar's are still pretty stale in sales the higher end ones still move. Someone expecting to spend 1500 will not be sold on a 500 gun regardless how much praise you might put on it. That really comes down to area and income. We are lucky in Monmouth County to have plenty of gun owners with high incomes that want Mid to Higher guns.

Those spiral flutes are amazing. It’s one of the things that draws people to the rifle. It’s a master of machining . in regards to a 1500 rifle being hard to justify . Same can be said about everything. You can buy a descent 1911 for 300 bucks ... why spend 1200 on one. We all channel our inner 5yo. Have you read some of the posts lol

We have sold the LWRC's DI from 1275.00 - 1500.00 depending on dealer incentives and sales.. Well worth it. beautiful rifles.

100% agree with you.... Customer picked up his Lwrc Di this weekend and was absolutely thrilled.

There's more to this. 1. High volume stores have no interest in doing transfers at all but offer it. 2. No FFL is happy mainly doing transfers. If an FFL is setup for transfers only then they would not have the stock or showroom to even sell accessories. A high volume store hates transfers because its a waste of time. Between the paperwork, waiting around for nics and million questions its more of a hassle for them. Then you have those who have no intention of purchasing a firearm locally but will use those locations as a showroom and the ability to finger fuck what they want to purchase online. The last scenario is not rare... its very common. Those people usually show there hand pretty quickly and pretty much put them on the pay no mind list. I have many friends who own stores from the Home FFL to the larger stores... We take about the daily gun store drama and its pretty funny and sad at the same time. Just this weekend right before closing we had a guy walk in with his GF asking to "Touch" the new Walther Q5 steel. WTF is touch im thinking? Not buy... Price out... Just touch... Then you have those who will spend about 45 min looking at guns.. asking questions , touching everything then ask you about transfer fee's.. This is all part of the transfer cost. Plenty of people refuse to buy local even when the prices are similar because then add NJ sales tax on top. Then you have those who understand a fair price and will purchase, These are not all Newbies these are veteran gun collectors plenty of which are members of this forum... They understand they are not just purchasing a gun. I'm a small boutique style part time store and that shit infuriates me sometimes. Imagine a store with 4 or 5 full time employees.

only one? Because he trolled you LOL

If you don't like your local FFL find a new one. NJ has no shortage of dealers. Its a catch 22.... You refuse to buy from them because they are expensive.....they refuse to do transfers cheap because you refuse to buy from them. Its a common story with all LGS's its not a NJ thing.

Thats right.. Sorry for the confusion.

I would go with throwing it over a wall at the range and see what happens...

IMO There is tons of room for a Gunsmith in NJ... all the ones that do good work are backlogged months. As a 07 making 1 single type firearm you are dealing with a niche market. that may or may not be flooded. To build a brand takes many years and plenty of money to back it up. If you plan to do this as a revenue source (retirement)i would suggest general gun smiting while working on your niche product. If your older it very well might be your brand never gets the recognition it might deserve due the time involved depending on your age.

Did you ever preform the drop test?

Problem is the transaction did I not include a gun since it was never sent. It seems the gun does not exist. I tagged capt so he can chime in. He has had something similar. He can reply with the result

@capt14k

We can order the DDm4 V11... just give us a ring.
