    Any plans on replacing it with another manufacturer?
    We will look at increasing our inventory of HSGI, High Ground and possible a couple others that we've talked to and dealt with before.


    Is the brand being picked up by another dealer?
    BFG pulled our exclusive last year and opened other dealers to increase brand awareness and sales. They can be found on the BFG dealer page.
    Please note, my opinion could be biased based on past and present employment

    So your way of "showing them" is to drop them ?
    Even though you sell high volumes of their gear?!
    Doesn't seem like a well thought out business plan

    You have no way of knowing what happened. It's likely the actual situation is much more complex.

    Over the last couple years though there have been changes at BFG that directly affected how we do business and serve our clients and some more changes came this last week.

    Our sales volume of BFG has been spread out between other dealers over the last year.

    That's a shame. Sucks to hear that news.

    BFG really makes an awesome product, I hope you can carry them again because I enjoyed buying BFG items from you guys.

    Very sad to see this day come.
    Darren as done more for bfg then anyone i know in th biz.
    one day bfg will look back at pulling your exclusive as a mistake.
    you are still the only shop that has a real amount of bfg on hand.
    again very sad day... but could see it coming.
