I look for this trend to continue with other firearms manufacturers. Kimber moved a lot of their manufacturing to Alabama.

Henry Rifles, are also being manufactured in Wisconsin.
I would expect Ruger to move their headquarters from Connecticut. They already have manufacturing plants in other States.
Since CZ bought Colt, I would expect them to move to more 2A friendly environs.

S&W is doing things the right way, by offering relo packages to their employees, and severance packages for those who wish to stay.
Those things are expensive, and I think that may be why other manufacturers are hesitant to move. Not to mention, running the risk of losing highly trained employees, and having to train new ones.

If these manufacturers, would stop trying to appease the gun grabbing lawmakers in some of the these States, and refuse to make "compliant" firearms, I think you would see many people change their voting habits, when they can't get guns they want. I realize that sounds harsh, for those unfortunate enough to have to live under tyrannical governments, but those lawmakers, didn't just magically appear in office, they were voted in. JMHO

Only thing S&W doing wrong is leaving ANY operations in firearm unfriendly Massachusetts. Hopefully they will rectify that mistake in the near future.
