I think what's out there will be the last of it. Their website is gone, FB page hasn't had a response since late 2014 and I found some info in a search:

Peirce's contribution received much notoriety in the press last year, during the election, due to the seeming contradiction of an ammunition maker backing the originator of the SAFE Act.
The press attention may have had a direct result in killing Pierce's sales and the sales of Ted Nugent Ammo .
The contribution was explained by Pierce, as a response to Pierce Munition's appreciation of Gov. Cuomo's "Buffalo Billion Investment Development Plan". Buffalo Billion is a NY state economic fund for industrial re-development in the Buffalo, NY area.
The same Buffalo Billion program is, now, under federal investigation for political kick-backs.
