ADCO firearms Not CA or L/E friendly
Just a heads up ADCO firearms posted this quote on another gun forum...
I dont sell mags to cops in CA either. One cop wanted me to send him GSG Mags. **** him. If your looking to buy something from the company maybe you should buy elsewhere.. Seems like he's anti CA anti LEO... |

I have done business with them in the past, and never had any problems. I was able to purchase uppers and lower parts kits from them. But I never tried to order a lower. Was this on ARF, I would like to see the post.

Guys issued HK's MP5's 93's 91's maybe want to train with the GSG5's budget's are tight, if the department signs off on it then why not?
But I'll say it again, it's not the policy that bugs me it's the attitude. |

Well then link to the post that demonstrates that, because what you posted just makes it look like he does not want to send something to cops that everyone else can't get, and is irritated that they would try. I can certainly understand that.
It does not seem like they are particularly picky about sending to CA in general either.

+1 for Steve @ ADCO, good guy..... I have even been to his shop physically...
RE: hi-cap mag to CA cops... all US businesses have the right to deny business to anyone... PS. is there a link to "exactly" what he said on ARF? and maybe a little background on the story...... maybe the CA LE pissed him off first? I dunno.... PPS. "ADCO firearms Not CA or L/E friendly" <- I don't think he is not-CA friendly, i used him to get me stuff and build me stuff before! maybe just not CA-LE friendly....

I don't think he's anti-cop, looks like he's anti special privileges for cops.

I thought this was an LEO forum?? Airsoft is a joke, .22LR is an inexpensive way to train with duty weapons. So should LEO's not be able to get hi-cap mags for .22 conversions for Sig P226s and .22 mags for AR15's?
If everyone didnt go overboard with their ammo hoarding maybe we could actually find ammo at decent prices train with something other than .22. Just my 2 cents |

maybe we should get a group buy together from a supporting competitor i could use more 22 rounders. i am not special but will take advantage of the letter of the law. by the way isn't that what oll and everything else we do here is about. if adco doesn't want our business, then i bet there are 10 more that will.

It would be nice to see the full context of what ADCO said or did at arf.com or where ever.

Except the OP won't post a link to what he is talking about, so we don't have the whole story.

It appears the guy that was trying to buy the mags is in compliance with the Cali law. Like it or not, Cali has afforded the purchase of high cap mags to law enforcement personnel. The bias and harsh words displayed toward LEO's (not just in this thread) for taking advantage of the law is unsettling.
I guess the bottom line is we as buyers can do business with any vender we choose.

Except that thing called the California Penal Code which allows for it. Geez there is a lot of whining on this issue. I don't like the laws anymore than the rest of you. That said, it is what it is and there is not one person on this forum that would not take advantage of that opportunity if it was afforded to them. Myself included!

Still waiting for a link to the original post...
I'll admit that if he really told the customer to F-off, then that is disrespectful and needs to be dealt with. However, you need to post something to validate this ASAP!!! when making an allegation like this. Last edited by WallyGeorge; 05-10-2009 at 3:43 PM.. |

I have to totally agree with Yzernie. I wonder what joe sun, Blackwater Ops, and thedrickel are even doing "contributing" to this forum? It is for LEO's, or for people to ask LEO's a question civilly, not blame cops for the hi-cap ban.
Cops don't make the laws about being allowed to have hi-cap mags. I doubt most cops are against civillians having high-cap mags. Its not a "privelege" to go to the next school, workplace, or mall mass shooting, or enter the home of a whole family slaughtered by the husband. It is a calling. If you have the desire and ability to be a cop, and all that comes with it, you can have the glorious perk of hi-cap mags, or you can possibly move to another state. All the officers remembered at the memorial in Sacramento this past week sure got "special treatment" when they got murdered doing their job. Its not the fault of the police that the gun laws are the way they are. Very few of us hold elected office. Last edited by trendar5; 05-11-2009 at 12:36 AM.. |

After reading that thread I came to this conclusion...there are only two people who know who the jerk was in the attempted purchase and they are the seller abd the potential buyer. I can understand ADCO's opinion on the rules here but the buyer is lawfully allowed to buy them. I will say, IMHO, ADCO went over the top with his "F-him" comment on a public message board. If he wanted to tell the guy that in their private conversations I say fine but on a public message board that was, again IMHO, inappropriate.
