Biting the Bullet — And Leaving Connecticut

Lawmakers, then, are fighting not just the gun-rights backlash born of the recent legislation but also accusations that they have created a hostile working environment for the Nutmeg State’s gun industry, one gun-related businesses may just do well to abandon.
“They don’t know what they can sell legally to whom, or when, or how,” said Josh Fiorini, the CEO of PTR.
“Their world just got turned upside down.”
