More importantly, you know what else made it debut in 1978? Me.

@Erik88 looks like we were reading the same things at pretty much the same time. Looks like the brace game just got a whole lot riskier.

Earlier this year the ATF referred a case to a US Atty. for prosecution of an owner of an AR pistol for making an SBR after adding a cheek rest to his AR pistol tube. Luckily the jury returned a verdict of not guilty https://blog.princelaw.com/2018/10/28/atf-unhinged-prosecutions-made-up-out-of-whole-cloth-you-might-be-next/ Of particular note is that the prosecuting attorney sought to preclude the ATF’s own FATB letters regarding the use of braces, cheek rests, and foregrips from being admitted as evidence. Their position was that the letters were not exculpatory because they weren’t about that particular rifle and that particular product in that particular configuration and did not set a precedent. To add insult to injury, it appears most of the court documents have been sealed after the loss. It doesn’t matter who is in office, the ATF is still gonna do ATF things.

When I was in the Air Force back in the 90s we did a rotation to Kuwait. On our way back we had a layover in Naples Italy. When we hit the hotel bar they were getting ready to close and we got them to stay open for us and we drank them completely out of beer.

Maybe he just figured the video would be worth more money if the cops killed the dude.

Appears to be a true believer white supremecist type. Here's a capture of his gab account, his account has already been deleted by gab: https://archive.fo/k63LE It seems to give a little bit of insight on what the final straw was for this guy to go off the deep end and start killing folks.

I’m starting to notice a trend here.

I didn’t even watch the video. I just went from the description under it. I ain’t watching that mess.

All you have to do is go online and submit the change of address and print that form and that is acceptable for use by the FFL for the 4473.

Even though I know they have some design differences to help them fulfill slightly different roles, the truth is I just use them interchangeably. It’s all a matter of what’s in stock when I go to buy some defensive ammo. That said, they do work best with critical duty in your full-size to midsize guns, and critical defense in your smaller compact or subcompact guns.

I’m generally using Hornaday critical defense/critical duty.

Yeah, I’m not trying to brag or advocate in any way, shape, form, or fashion, but I did a lot of drugs in my youth. I never had the desire to whack of my own wang in such a manner.

Man, Lyle’s got a few dates out west with John Hiatt after the first of the year. Love John Hiatt.

Well, I didn’t see the thread right away. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Chupacabra!

Nope. Haven’t even fired it yet. Bought it for my daughter but haven’t given it to her as I decided to hold off just a bit before giving it to her because she isn’t quite ready.

Well, you succeeded in that challenge. They compliment each other very well.

I think your info is outdated Ronald. I believe Verne has the right of it. I think @DaveTN probably knows better than most of us. I think he’s up there fairly regularly.

I have a few, I’ve given away more as gifts. This newest one is the best yet that I’ve personally held.

@Grand Torino posted for sale 3 Bowie fighters recently. I think some might still be available, but here’s the one he did for me. The sheath, like the others, was made by @1911alltheway. It’s completely amazing.

Branca was here during the Zimmerman trial providing some commentary, but mostly promoting himself to build his brand. I don’t know anyone who had ever heard of him before then. He’s good at his hustle, and he may very well know his stuff, but his presence here was primarily about selling himself, not about adding to the community here. I wasn’t a mod back then, so I don’t know about the internal discussions that went on and how it went down. What I do know is that our community is often remarked to be one of the best folks have been apart of, especially amongst gun boards. If I sound proud of this place, I am. I am of the opinion that this community is built on folks who are invested in it. That means invested in the people in it, through building relationships or if you’re trying to sell them something, you’re at least invested monetarily as a vendor. Branca didn’t do either. From my perspective he appeared to think that his presence here was value enough to be able to shill himself here. Apparently, the folks whose opinion really mattered didn’t agree. No great loss.

Nope. Not at all.
