From their FB post:
Friends,
With a heavy heart I have to let everyone know that Stand 1 Armory will be shutting down permanently at the end of this month. Its been one of the most difficult decisions Ive ever had to make but its time and I can’t ignore it any longer. I’m very proud of the brand that we’ve built and the employees here that make everything possible. We have a really talented bunch or folks. We have always strived to make the best possible product available even when that wasn’t the most profitable way to do things. We did so because we sincerely care about the shooting community- many of you whom have become very good friends over the years. Im grateful beyond belief for many of you. Thank you isn’t enough.
I wont go into all the reasons that led to this decision because none of them really matter now. Many of you know that Stand 1 is being sued for a tremendous sum of money by a former employee. Its unfortunate and I sincerely wish things were different but they aren’t and we need to face that fact. We’re sorry that we wont be able to continue to serve the community any longer. It was an honor and a privilege to do so for as long as we did.
In an effort to make sure that all of our customers and friends are taken care of, we will continue to manufacture product until Friday September 22nd and our website will remain active for orders through Friday September 29th. Everything we are producing currently meets the same exacting standards that we have set all along and we will continue to stand behind each and every round that we sell. Any orders placed between now and September 29th will be filled without fail. We will do our best to answer most emails regarding orders but we are not able to discuss anything else at this time. We are also not able to discount any products other than our pre-established rates that are in place at this time. We will not be having any last minute liquidation sales nor are we entertaining any offers for our equipment or anything else.
We do have some excellent employees that we would like to be able to place in other types of assembly or manufacturing jobs. I can’t speak highly enough about these people, and they are some of the hardest working and easiest people to get along with that I have ever met. Many of them have a language barrier as Spanish is their primary language; however, in the event that you have or you know someone who has a potential job opportunity for any of these people that would be a good fit, we’d love to make a connection for them. Please let us know if you know of any positions for them, as we are focused on getting them placed after their last day here. We will do anything in our capacity to assist in doing so.
This is a very difficult time for everyone here. With the most heartfelt gratitude and thanks, we say goodbye to our professional relationship with all of you but many of the friendships we made will last forever.
