![]() ![]() Does that mean stores should take a negative stance against Giro because Vista owns Federal ? Can't see the logic there, these interest groups have me looking for a very small violin for target practice tonight. you would be surprised what companies fall into them. Honestly if you looked at "big Business". I use federal in all my firearm's, have owned multitudes of Giro and Bell products, and have multiple Camelbaks ,all outstanding quality. ![]() ![]() Honestly I never knew those awesome brands were under the same umbrella. Watch out for that suspicious unsavory with the green neon Giro helmet with orange camelback, might have a Savage Arms loaded with Fed ACP's. In an open letter, David Labistour, MEC's CEO, wrote, "I hope that you will see that the decision we made today is balanced and considered and positions us to inspire a wider discussion throughout our industry and North America." This, along with Vista Outdoor's support of the National Rifle Association, has spurred a social media uproar along with boycotts and petitions urging retailers and consumers to cease their support of the company and its affiliated brands.Īfter a petition on that was created with the goal of convincing Mountain Equipment Co-op (MEC) to stop selling products made by Vista Outdoor received over 50,000 signatures, MEC, Canada's largest outdoor retailer, decided to stop any orders with the Vista Outdoor brands (Bollé, Bushnell, CamelBak, Camp Chef, Jimmy Styks) that they carried. Vista Outdoor, the parent company of Bell, Giro, Blackburn, and Camelbak, also lists Savage Arms, a rifle and shotgun manufacturer, and Federal Ammunition among its brands. Vista Outdoor's brands include Giro, Camelbak, Blackburn, and Savage Arms.Īmidst the heated gun control debate that's currently taking place in North America in the wake of a mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, sporting goods retailers and consumers are facing difficult decisions concerning the brands they purchase from. ![]()
