WELD COUNTY, Colo. - Magpul Industries Corp., a Colorado gun magazine
manufacturer, is offering to donate the sale of some "limited edition"
products to a lawsuit seeking to overturn a state law banning
high-capacity magazines.
The Erie company, which employees 200
people, has vowed to leave Colorado after passage of the law, which
prohibits the sale or transfer of ammunition magazines that hold more
than 15 rounds. The law has a "grandfather" clause that allows someone
who owns such high-capacity magazines before the law takes effect on
July 1 to legally keep them.
A group of 54 Colorado sheriffs filed
a federal lawsuit last month in an effort to overturn the gun magazine
law and another law requiring universal background checks for gun
buyers. The sheriffs say the laws are unconstitutional

Bristol firearms manufacturer PTR Industries is moving to South Carolina, a company executive confirmed Tuesday.
The company — which said two months ago it would be relocating once it found a suitable location a "friendly to the industry" — will move to Aynor, S.C., near Myrtle Beach, said John McNamara, vice president of sales at PTR.
The gun manufacturer, with about 45 employees, was the first firm to announce its exit from the state following recent gun control legislation. Many of PTR's employees agreed to the move and even held an informal vote choosing South Carolina over other states.
