Vista is selling all of its ammunition and primer plants to a single billionaire in the Czech Republic
I just heard this on Tom Gresham's Gun Talk Radio

well at least he probably isn't a commie. Vista could have sold it all to Bill Gates, who would have just shuttered the plants.

This has been out there for a while. Vista has been a corporate s**t show for a couple of years now. Lots of internal drama.
I'm not overly concerned about the Czech outfit buying the ammo business. Vista has not been our friend (steep price increases and shortages) and it would be reasonable to suspect that the new buyer wants greater access to the US market (the world's largest retail ammo market).

Under the old CEO they couldn’t hit their expectations.
During a Ukraine war and all the ammo need.
