BRT are closing their doors - Sad

Post by Jorlcrin » 15 Jul 2024, 10:49 am

Heard yesterday, that BRT (Bench-Rest Tactical) are closing down about mid-next month(August 2024).
From the website, it looks like they are retiring

Very sad; Always been very happy with the service from them, and they had a great range of reloading equipment..

Nonetheless; Hope they enjoy retirement.

It's always such a shame when small businesses don't hand the baton on for someone else to continue a good business mode, iv seen it many times over.
I guess the door has opened for someone to fill the gap though.
Gun control requires concentration and a steady hand

I saw a post this morning that one of the other companies has bought it all and will continue in some way. I think I recall who but am not certain and can't find the post so won't mention them.

Had many pleasant transactions with BRT. Definitely one the good places to deal with. Sad to see them go. Wish Stuart and Annie the best in their retirement.

Sad that this country has gone down the same rabbit hole as the rest of the demented world there were buyers for brt but no bank would lend them the money as its a firearms associated business.
Anyway QRA has taken over .
