Otherwise, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.house.leg.state.mn.us\/members\/members.asp?leg_id=10248\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rep. Alice Hausman (DFL-St. Paul)<\/a> and her compatriots would never have introduced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/bin\/getbill.php?number=HF0241&amp;session=ls88&amp;version=list&amp;session_number=0&amp;session_year=2013\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HF 241<\/a>. This bill would make it a crime to &#8220;manufacture, import, transfer or possess an assault weapon&#8221; after its enactment.<\/p>\n<p>The Freedom Group subsidiary DPMS\/Panther Arms is located in St. Cloud, Minnesota. It employs 115 employees. In the video below, Adam Bullard, Product Manager for DPMS\/Panther Arms testifies before the Minnesota House Public Safety and Policy Committee on HF 241.<\/p>\n<p>The only exceptions the bill provides for the exemption of the manufacture of &#8220;assault weapons&#8221; for sale to the armed forces or to a Minnesota law enforcement agency. Notice that says nothing about exempting out of state sales and that includes out of state sales to even law enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Just like Remington is being courted in New York, I&#8217;m sure that DPMS\/Panther Arms management is hearing from industrial recruiters in other states.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/twdAaP82bP8\" width=\"420\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The gun prohibitionists in the Minnesota State House and Senate obviously don&#8217;t care about jobs if they are in&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":2,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[312,3325,2984,45,3326,687],"class_list":["post-2569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-assault-weapons-ban","tag-dpms-panther-arms","tag-freedom-group","tag-gun-control","tag-hf-241","tag-minnesota"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2569"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8831,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2569\/revisions\/8831"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
