Has anyone actually sent an e-mail to either company.
They need to be assailed with e-mails and pounded back into shape.
the SAI Facebook page is under heavy siege and assault. They had to disable ratings as they fell from 4.5 to 1 and turn off visitor messages, but the replys to thier posts are salty as heck.
RRA doesn't have a Facebook page.... weeeird.
There may be hope for Rock River. I guess they were just sending money and not paying attention to what the IFMA was doing.
Springfield and Rock River Illinois Sell-Out: Picking up the Pieces - The Truth About Guns
I'm calling BS on on Chuck Larson's comment concerning RRA. You don't send large sums of money to a lobbyist and not know what they lobbying for, especially when it come to a bill like SB-1657 that affects the very foundation of your business. I'm sure he's appalled, appalled he got caught selling out small dealers and gun owners in IL.

It's unofficial, so they probably won't even really notice.RRA's facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Rock-River-Arms/122829987773366 The comments aren't too kind.

Winner. He's 'appalled' he got caught trying to fix the system for his own skin and screw his own dealers and customers.
Double- BS. They knew exactly what they were sending $50,000 each for.
SHAME.

Sounds like they are smarter than SpringfieldA comment made by the RRA moderator on Arfcom.
RRA's owner is at NRAAM in Atlanta, where he is meeting with a number of people about this. While many of the necessary people are in Atlanta, some are not which is complicating things.
RRA has been opposed to this bill (and earlier bills prior to it for more than a decade) and is still in 100% opposition to it. Both our exemption and the change in our lobbyist's position from "opposed" to "no position" were surprises to us. We found out after many of you, and have been trying to make sense of it since.
A statement will be forthcoming as soon as it is possible to make one that is accurate and complete. It may still come out today.
Thank you all for your consideration and to the many who have been willing to give us the benefit of the doubt.
