The SADF used modified Honda 500XRs at the time. That’s according to the Rhodie crew.

This makes my pants uncomfortable.

Ok, to revisit the topic as I said I would: I am wholly retracting my questions on his character and intentions. I was wrong in that. Pincus is mostly guilty of poorly defined messaging, but the 2A community wasn’t the real audience for this piece. Folks outside of it were. When Pincus and Gross (who is a former president of Brady, but left because he changed his mind on the efficacy of gun control and the honesty of those in the movement) speak of “expanded background checks” they are speaking of requiring a BGC for selling a gun to a stranger. Then they bake into it the removal of the state line prohibition and so many exceptions to what constitutes a “stranger” as to render the term almost meaningless. I think the error here was attempting to be clever for their own good and giving the other side a useful quote. “Even gun people support expanded (read as universal) background checks.” I’m in the “not one more inch” camp. We’ve given up too much as it is. I’ll give Pincus credit for trying a different tactic, I just don’t know that it was a good one.

I was only half serious. Whenever something interesting exists, I always ask “can I fit a semi in the lot?” If I really want to go I’ll just park at the TA and Uber over to it.

How big is the lot? Think I can get a semi in there?

Optics ready pistolas... Somethin to play with or the " Real Deal "..?

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?
