NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
It's the largest supplier of handguns to law enforcement in the U.S. But behind its success lies a troubling tale of business intrigue

Interesting article, as well as a video with Massad F. Ayoob doing a firing demonstration.

Re: NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
I get Newsweek...and this is a really interesting article. Definitely worth the time to read...
And don't think you're off the hook, voters, you're the ones who made this bed. Now you're the ones who are going to have to move over so a gay couple can sleep in it. Tomorrow you're all going to wake up in a brave new world, a world where the Constitution gets trampled by an army of terrorist clones, created in a stem-cell research lab run by homosexual doctors who sterilize their instruments over burning American flags. -- Stephen Colbert

Re: NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
The article is a good read. However, large multinational corporations have been trying to "reduce their tax liability" since taxes were dreamed up. Who could blame them for attempting to keep more of their own money.

Re: NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
Corporations are in business to make money, as long as they are not putting out a defective product to do it, and they are not breaking laws then OK.
Beside Newsweek is not exactly a pro or even neutral publication when it comes to guns.RIP -The US constitution.

Story, thank you so much for posting this! For years, now, I've either stated or strongly suspected many of the things described in this Newsweek article, and had many Glock aficionados tell me that I have to be nutz.
Now they can argue with Newsweek! Thanks, again. Appreciate it!

Re: NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
i skimmed over the article and really didn't see anything intriguing about it. companies always have and always will look for ways to keep more of their money in their pockets instead of giving it to the government. george soros has bank rolled penty of liberal candidates including nobama but the article stresses that glock supporting politicians was illegal. when reading articles concerning firearms in liberal publications like newsweek i read everything looking for the liberal spin and bias. i'll still be shooting and buying glocks

Re: NEWSWEEK : Glock's Secret Path to Profits
there is no way gaston is as big a tax cheat as that article makes him out to be...
...if he were, he would have a spot in obama's administration by now.

If he is stiffing the IRS more power to him.
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom ... go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels nor arms. May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Samuel Adams
