Desert Tactical Arms of Salt Lake City, Utah was offered a $15 million government contract by the Obama regime to provide arms to Pakistan. After a lot of debate within the companies owners, they decided to refuses the government contract and $15 million. Desert Tactical Arms refused the $15M Obama gov Contract to arm Pakistan out of fear that the weapons given to the Pakistanis would one day fall into the hands of some terrorist and be used to killed Americans. Nick Young of Desert Tactical Arms explained the company’s decision in a Facebook post.
In 2013 we faced a moral dilemma that I wanted to get some opinions on. The current US administration is sponsoring FMS arms sales to Pakistan forces. In 2013 We had been approached with a multi-million dollar opportunity to legally supply sniper systems to Pakistan. I was never in the armed services but we employ several military veterans. Our greatest fear was that our equipment might be used against US troops. I started this company to protect Americans not endanger them. In consulting with other arms companies the general responses I got was, if they don’t buy it from you, then they will get it somewhere else, or money is money. After much internal review we elected not to sell to Pakistan. I wanted to throw this out to our military friends to see if our concern was legitimate and hear your thoughts on it.
Thanks
Nick Young
