    I don't know the full details of why they're blacklisted here but from my own experience; pre-pandemic mind you, I ordered a maverick 88 off their website only to find it hanging on their wall for sale. Had I come later in the week lord knows if they would have actually sold it to some walk in customer. :sad20:

    I did not create this thread intending to speak ill of the soon to be dead.

    A lot of reviews suggest they dont have a lot of inventory.

    still... 20% off is 20% off.

    I am sure that they are going out of business because of the Democrats and not bad business decisions.

    You're a new member and I'm sure this wasn't posted with ill intent.
    Cliff's Notes...
    Fox Firearms was using the MDShooters classified ads to advertise their business' items for sale. They were told to stop or pay for Industry Partner (IP) status to advertise commercially here. Fox Firearms decided to file a lawsuit against MDShooters instead of doing what all the IP's here do- pay a modest fee to have a commercial presence on this forum.

    Constitutional used to be in the same exact location.

    They seemed to do okay in the 2013 countdown to HQL-ageddon. They closed shortly before GunBunker(?) in Burtonsville.

    I'm surprised <store that shall not be named> couldn't make a go of the current climate. Perhaps customer service ensured no repeat business?

    I went into <unnamed> a few years ago due to morbid curiosity. Even then, they didn't seem to have much inventory.

    Who knew parting would be such sweet enjoyment.

    I stopped in there a few years ago. I was the only one there and they had no interest in interacting with me.

    I think if you dig around here long enough you'll come across a picture of the guy from Fox Firearms with his old buddy, Marty O'Malley

    It should be noted (and may not be common knowledge) that the owner of Fox Firearms emailed us a few years back to apologize. He admitted that he got caught up in an internet argument and made a bad, emotional decision. In that spirit I wish him the best if luck with whatever is next.
