This link shows companies which have signed on to keep public lands public. They are sending a letter to President Trump and congress urging them to keep public lands public. Before you purchase outdoor gear check and see if the company is on the list. If not, call and ask them why?

I find it interesting that after looking at that list some of the bigger names (IMO) didn't pop out at me like Cabela's (soon to be Bass Pro), Bass Pro, Sitka, Kuiu, Leuopold, and many others. Possibly some because they are not based in the US, like Swarovski, Zeiss, or Nikon but a lot of US based companies that I do not see.

First Lite is one of the leading companies in support of public lands and the BHA organization. That is why they will always keep my business and respect..Kuiu's founder is to busy going on private land hunts and 50k+ sheep hunts to care to support public lands..just my thoughts though.

Agree on First Lite (FL) support of public lands and BHA. FL customer service is outstanding as well. This information came from Ryan Callaghan with FL. Super nice guy and he will talk to you on the phone for as long as you like answering all questions until the customer is satisfied. I have been using FL gear for 4 season and very impressed.

Agree. Before we buy we should ask why they aren't on the list. They may not be aware of it.

Amen to that. One of the reasons I did not go with Kuiu/Sitka for my clothing.

Here is another list of businesses that have stated opposition to transfer. This list is more Wyoming specific. We thank them for their support!

I got an email today saying that the public land transfer was beat down!! This is very good news. Bought my wife a north face jacket today. After looking at the list, I'm glad I did!!

If you mean you got an e-mail about Wyoming's land transfer bill....not so fast. It will come back from the dead I'm almost positive.
Senate president Bebout says he "Killed it" but that it may reappear later....he's a slinky weasel that bears watching.

Good to see some companies on the list, hopefully we will see a large list of hunting and angling companies come about.

Would be interesting to see the opinion on the large gun manufactures. S&W, Remington Group (Henry, Bushmaster, H&R, etc.), Savage, etc. Might be out there but too lazy to look for it.

Also, the big sporting goods stores (Cabelas, BassPro, Sportsmens Warehouse) have not signed on. We need to put pressure on all of the above to get off the fence!
