It's way past time for the firearms industry to have a coordinated and integrated strategy to deal with this sort of shit. Leftist states, in alliance with Bloomberg and the other gun grabbing faggots will never stop attempting their death by a thousand cuts approach.
While the Bruen decision means that most or all of these bullshit laws will eventually be thrown out, it would be even more effective if the firearms industry got their shit together and had a pre-planned response for this sort of thing: divvy up which organization is going to file suit to prevent duplication of effort, all major manufacturers and retailers immediately cut off firearms, parts, and ammunition sales to government entities in the affected state, and end any discount programs for private sales to law enforcement.
Basically as soon as a law like this is passed the state becomes ostracized by anyone that matters in the firearms industry and a well coordinated lawsuit is filed. I honestly don't understand why they're not doing this, because if these states get away with banning guns many or most of these companies will go out of business. There simply aren't enough government contracts to support the amount the firearms and accessories currently being sold in America if private individuals can't own them.
Yes, and to date they're the only gun maker to do that. Also, why a law enforcement agency needs .50 BMG is a good question to ask.
Now imagine the impact of just Glock and Smith and Wesson doing the same. That's 80% or more of the handguns used by cops in America. Add in Beretta, SIG, FN, Colt, and Ruger, and that's damn near every firearm a government agency could have. If Federal, Speer, Remington UMC, etc. did the same for ammo there would be an immediate effect.
Why these companies tolerate left wing governments making them a whipping boy for all the crime that is actually a result of their shitty social policies and then lick the hand that beats them by continuing to sell firearms and ammunition to them boggles my mind.
Barrett also developed the .416 Barrett cartridge in direct response, which is a .50 BMG case necked down to a .416 diameter bullet.
My gun customization knowledge being somewhat limited ... does this mean that basically a .50 BMG rifle could be converted to a .416 by simply replacing the barrel?
If so, that's a nice bonus fuck you to California.
Barret after sales support is somewhat legendary. There was one occasion where they gave phone support to a US soldier in a firefight in Iraq or something. Call center guy got the workshop on the phone and the soldier was able to clear his jam and unfuck his springs or whatever. Pew Pew resumed.
Most small government departments don't have the budget or the access to high quality, specialist gunsmiths to service, repair and upgrade their gear. Being able to send it back to the manufacturer's workshop is a significant advantage. Taking that away causes the government department to re-think their service and maintenance procedures or to shelve the weapons until they do.

Also stopping or disabling vehicles.

Glock would never do that
