I don't understand why these manufacturers stay in a state where they are despised so deeply. I am sure Governor Rick Perry would be proud to have them call Texas home, so why do they continue to create jobs and pay taxes in a state where they are clearly not welcome?
New Britain native Mark Malkowski will soon celebrate 10 years of manufacturing at his NB factory. Under other circumstances, he might expect the governor to drop by to celebrate the unlikely story of the local kid who opened a factory at age 24 in a city desperate for manufacturing jobs.
Malkowski, now a boyish 34, is president of Stag Arms, a company whose only products are a line of black semiautomatic rifles that Gov. Dannel P. Malloy wants to make illegal to sell and difficult to possess in Connecticut. The rifles are Malkowski's version of the AR-15, the weapon Adam Lanza used to kill 20 first-graders and six women at Sandy Hook Elementary School
Now the state of Oklahoma is the latest state to contact the Stag Arms plant in NB, telling it to bring over its manufacturing plant and jobs. Mark Malkowski said he's been contacted by Oklahoma's Department of Commerce, urging him to move out of NB.
Mark Malkowski said CT is our home and we have never taken these letters seriously in the past. But if a ban (on assault weapons) would take place, the idea would certainly be on the table. The company opened their shop in New Britain, CT 10 years ago and employ nearly 200 people today.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation, the lobby group for the gun industry, released a video about the economic impact the gun industry has in its home state of Connecticut.
The video focuses on the employees and management of three Connecticut-based companies O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Stag Arms and Ammunition Storage Components. While there are numerous gun and gun related companies in the state as well, these three companies give a well-rounded view of how the Governor’s proposals may effect these types of businesses.
The St Valentine's Day massacre occurred in 1929 so it took 5 years to pass an Act that did nothing to keep the people safe. All it did was make one of the weapons of choice of gangsters illegal. Is Chicago safer now, 80 plus years after the massacre? Are gangsters less violent in Chicago?
