MDM Muzzleloaders in the Manchester Manufacturing building is located on Gould Street.

It is a black powder gun company.

Obama will use this as a excuse to shut down all ammunition factories.

It's the actual firearm manufacturer, not ammunition supplies, isn't it? And why would border patrol and fish and game be investigating?

They manufactured black powder.  The company is a subsidiary of MDM Muzzleloaders.   The building is TOAST.  Prayers for the families.  This is up in the North Country, about 10 miles (maybe less) from the Canadian border, and in a case like this, they'll pull any law enforcement/fire folks they can get.
