Shake up at Taurus

[gryphon]

Over the last few weeks CBC has purchased controlling shares in Taurus and fired Taurus CEO Mark Kresser.  Taurus just announced they have hired Colt Sales SVP Anthony Acitelli to fill his shoes.  New Taurus President and CEO also a veteran exec from ATK, Tasco, and Federal Cartridge.

Taurus now controlled by fellow Brazilian company CBC, who, despite being considerably lesser known in the United States, is one of the world's largest ammunition manufacturers producing Magtech and Czech-based Sellier & Bellot.
