Chuck Schumer a fan of assault weapons?
I guess, when it comes to jobs:
“Thanks to Remington’s continued confidence in this capable work force, we’re going to see even more good-paying jobs at the plant, creating positive ripple effects throughout the region,” Schumer said. “The addition of these jobs strengthens the ability of the Remington plant in Ilion to compete for the many Department of Defense small arms M-4 and M-16 style firearms.”
This is about transferring the Bushmaster jobs to NY. Interesting, since Schumer has never seen a gun he doesn’t want to ban.

Note: He only mentions those ‘assault weapons’ that are restricted to Military and Law enforcement.
Presumably, the rest are still bad.

Schumer’s principles have always had a price tag.

Yeah, these are OK, they’re only for the Gov’t.

Imagine the sense of job security you’d have, with your product endorsed like that. That man is worth two battalions to each and every enemy we may ever have. Apply razor, eliminate middleman: who needs enemies?

Markie Marxist sez: “Some people mistakenly think that my commie compadre, Senator Schumer, is against guns, but that’s not true. Like the good communist that he is, he’s only against privately owned guns. Government will need all the guns it can get when it’s time to hunt down and exterminate private gun owners.”

It’s about control, not guns.

Well now we know where Remington transferred the Bushmaster production to. Can’t wait to see if the quality declines like it has on the 870.
Shame that Marlin products will be following this example.

Shootin’ Buddy,
You’re correct, sir!
Politicians like Schumer are all for hired guns, but not for us ’cause they want to control us. He has kinship with his fascist and communist political prgentiors

Can’t say my opinion of him has changed all that much in six years.
And, yes, he is a fan of assault weapons.
