Is Ruger Being Sold? What the Beretta Contract Actually Says

Did Beretta buy Ruger? The Ruger CEO just gave his big update and never said the word Beretta. Here is the Ruger news nobody read out: the Ruger Beretta deal, what Beretta Holding owns, and what it can't do. We follow the fight from Beretta's first SEC filing to the poison pill, the May deal and the $44.80 tender offer that left Beretta with 25%. Then we read the contract: the cap, the standstill, the media gag, and the one time Ruger's CEO said "We're always for sale." Subscribe for the paperwork read straight, and tell us in the comments: is Beretta the best thing for Ruger, or the beginning of the end?
