is it too late to zumbo the guy?
I think this is going to be its own verb. To be “Coopered.”
After todays news VA ARMS IS NOT A DEALER FOR COOPER any longer.
Obviuosly Mr. Cooper didn’t get the memo. Apparently he doesn’t give a shit about the 2nd Amendment either.
Someone should get a list of dealers and let them know…

Good for Bernie and all of you, dude! We can only hope more of this dumbass’s customers show equal backbone in tossing his wares out of their stores.
I wonder if anyone has a significant inventory of Cooper rifles in stock? The company’s announcement has all but destroyed any chance of getting them sold. A dealer or distributor stuck with all that inventory may very well need to return everything for a refund …
Scheel’s in Rapid City, SD a hub of hunting in SD, WY, ND, MT, and NE has 15, or more, on hand.
Starting at around $1600 and going up…:eek:
Correct. They are a high-end custom gun shop (the kind that doesn’t even list prices) and by all appearances deal only in bolt-action rifles. Supposed to be pretty nice, but I’ve never seen one of his rifles myself or know personally anybody who has one.
It’s interesting that he does this, because it reminds me of a conversation I was having with someone at the last gun show who sold bolt guns and shotguns who was lamenting that people felt they “needed” these “assault weapons” and didn’t feel we should be allowed to own 'em. It’s a shame, because he had some great prices that I’ll never get to take advantage of. This is the third gun show in a row where I’ve been told this by someone selling guns there…

I’ll be calling the manager at the Sioux Falls store who is a friend of mine and make sure he knows.
From the Copper web site…
That’s a lot of horse manure. If you want to stop shipping jobs overseas, stop taxing businesses here. That means support Republicans NOT Democrats.
Cooper still does not get my business.
Regarding the USA Today Article. Cooper Firearms of Montana, Inc. did not contribute and does not support in any fashion the campaign of Senator Obama.
Nine months ago Dan Cooper (personally) made an online donation to the campaign[of Barack Obama] in an effort to help defeat Hillary Clinton…
Dan Cooper = Cooper Firearms
The company made no donation to Obama, but Dan Cooper did.
Gotcha Dan.
Man, I didn’t know that there were that many there. Well I guess I’ll never be buying any of them now. Of course I wasn’t really interested in them anyway.
Just out of curiosity, how did you know how many coopers the scheels in Rapid City has? Have you been through there lately? I’m just curios if any m4c members have been through the area recently.
Excellent news! Good for you guys! The fact that a firearms manufacturer would back such an anti-gun candidate makes me want to puke! This thread should be copied to every gun forum out there!
Cooper probably won’t lose much on my account as my 25 year old Win. 670 and 6X Weaver with Sierra 168s suit me just fine–quite possibly will outshoot his status symbols.
This country probably needs more of the former and fewer of the latter anyway.
He claims to have given more to McCain but I cannot find a record of it. Anyone know how to get the donor lists besides Huffington Post?
Was out west 19-OCT thru 23-OCT. Landed in Rapid City and drove to Gillette for antelope.
They had at least 8 that I saw on display and the VERY lovely clerk, Laurie/Laura/Lori (blonde fairly tall, hot), said they had at least that many more in “the back”.

Have you ever shot one of his “Status Symbols”? Do you know anybody that has one?
I didn’t think so, or you wouldn’t make that statement. Like what he did or not, they make very accurate guns. What suits you fine, may not suit anyone else fine. 
BTW: Did your Win 670 come with a target that was shot with it before it left the factory? Like a Cooper at least used to?
I sent him an email telling him thanks for being Oboma’s whore. His website home page tries to smooth things over. What a load of crap.
