The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I love the AR platform. Doesn't bother me that Berkshire is in the business.

Sure.

I don't love the AR platform, and finding out that Berkshire, by far my largest and longest-held stock holding, has a sub that is the largest manufacturer of AR parts, well it was quite jarring.

I can't imagine that Buffett is a fan of the AR platform in civilian hands. If he is, I have very badly misjudged him.

Note that Cerro claims to make "Military and Law Enforcement Firearms Components". I'm fine with that.
They don't say they make firearms components for civilian use. My source says otherwise.
