Winchester buys Ammo, Inc.

[peachhead]

I know Ammo, inc. came up in a few posts a little while back. I got a message from my sales rep today saying they had been acquired by Winchester so I looked it up. Honestly I don't know if this means they're going to shut it down and just convert the whole thing to Winchester or what. I didn't buy much of their ammo because their case quantities were restrictive for small dealers, for the most part I like their ammo.
I kind of hate to see another independent assimilated by the Borg.

With all the military contracts they have them must need the extra manufacturing ability to fulfill those contracts. Follow the money.

About a month ago I was looking at buying some of their stock - POWW. Was about a $1/share. Hmmm.

Not a big investor, but had a handful of shares I sold last March @$2.75. Bought some Ruger, that hasn’t done well…..yet.

I do have Ruger and Olin - Winchesters parent company. Bought them many years ago, I think I got my Ruger for about $10 and the Olin was $21. Ruger, at one point was in the $90's, during covid and riots. I almost sold it, but I decided not to. The dividends were great, especially the "special" ones.

I just hope Ruger's new CEO Seyfert is at least as good as Kiloy.
