Optics ready pistolas... Somethin to play with or the " Real Deal "..?
Chucktshoes replied to leroy's topic in Handguns
I had the Sentinel attached to my Hellcat. The glass cracked from a slight impact that it took while still in the holster. They're fine for a range only, but not something to trust your life on. -

You dodged a bullet with the Swampfox. It’s not solid enough for edc/duty use. -
After watching the live video from Instagram, and reading an article referenced which I will provide links for, I believe that I, and others read his intentions incorrectly. I can’t break it all down at this moment, I can’t break it all down at this moment, but I will post a little later where I got it wrong, and why I did so. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/rob-pincus-answers-pointed-questions-about-his-support-for-expanded-background-checks/ if you have the hour to devote to it, I strongly recommend watching the discussion on Instagram that I linked before.

I’m currently watching a Instagram live he did with Maj Toure. I firmly believe in letting folks tell their side. Here’s the link. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CNKxIZhAASy/?igshid=1xmgj5gq51u6w

In case any of y’all have missed the brouhaha surrounding Rob Pincus this past week, he partnered with Dan Gross (former head of the Brady Campaign) and penned an op-ed in Ammoland News calling for expanded background checks and compromise with the anti-2A crowd. https://www.ammoland.com/2021/03/guns-in-america-ending-the-culture-war-starting-a-productive-conversation/ Here is a good rebuttal, also published by Ammoland. https://www.ammoland.com/2021/03/say-no-more-gun-owners-compromised-enough/ —————————- My personal thoughts. I’m not a fan of “cancel culture” but Rob Pincus is a large and well known name in the gun community. He has been vocal in some very important fights in the past, including the recent work to attempt to reform the NRA. He is also grossly in error here. He has a history that deserves the benefit of the doubt with regards to his thinking and motives. so if he were to step back, reflect, reverse course and apologize for this, he could and should be forgiven. I don’t think that is likely for one simple reason. Due to the language being used in the article being almost verbatim from Bloomberg talking points, I strongly suspect that he’s been co-opted and is on the payroll. I have no proof or evidence of that assertion, simply a gut feeling. Regardless, I must walk away and pay no heed to him and strongly be suspicious of those whom continue to work with him on a professional basis. Retracted due to better understanding of what Pincus was attempting to accomplish with this article.

Nobody was proposing mandated training. That discussion sprouted from comments made by Rep. Parkinson regarding the state incentivizing ways of making free training available to folks who sought education on firearms. -

On the subject of bad scotus decisions, I rank it up there with Dred Scott. It needs reversing. -

Passed, no amendments, off to the Governor. -
Those are nice. I hope you’re not trying to sell one without becoming a benefactor after clicking that you understand the sales policy. Right?

Lucky Gunner Being Sued By Shooting Victim's Families
Chucktshoes replied to AuEagle's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I see having to provide ID to online ammo retailers being a thing in the near future. I’m kinda surprised it hasn’t already been implemented to be honest. -
The sixth circuit has issued an injunction preventing the ATF from enforcing its rule declaring bump stocks as machine guns. so as of now, bump stocks are currently legal again. https://www.gunowners.org/victory-court-rules-a-bump-stock-is-not-a-machine-gun/?fbclid=IwAR1LBosxq5qwR4iqoH9v8zRhgNFhmRdsyKNolAx0c7vWrpEPCAOKHnBFWv4

It’s not uncommon for folks to join specifically for the purpose of buying or selling an item. Sometimes they even stick around and become valued member of the community.

Yes. Like that.

Guys, let’s make sure we keep political talk tightly focused on 2A issues.

Well, I feel like there’s a joke about minimum acceptable ASVAB scores or the different branches just sitting around here somewhere.

I was in a non-combat role in the AF. Two days in BMT on the rifle range, and that was it. Didn’t touch a gun again while I was in.

I suspect that a major reasons you didn’t hear anything about mass shootings last year are threefold. 1) Trump. The election sucked up all of the air out of the room. 2) The pandemic sucked out what air was left after talking the election. 3) With the political situation being what it was, it was known that nothing was going to get done. So the focus was on changing the political situation so that if the opportunity arose again, something could get done. * not even trying to, or opening a window to discuss the merits of the political points, just stating them as what I believe are the contributing factors to why we didn’t hear about mass shootings in 2020.*

Without getting too overtly political, you know the mainstream media outlets are very disappointed about this particular development.
