  1. This is painfully accurate.
  2. No, it’s not about the brace. They are declaring the pistol as an AOW. Brace or no, it’s an AOW. It’s $5 to transfer one that’s already been registered. It’s $200 to make one and initially register it.
  3. I think the odds of them taking a 2A case just got better though. The prevailing theory is that SCOTUS declined the recent spate of cases because there was concern over Roberts being squishy. It only takes 4 justices to grant certiorari, so there was obviously a decision by someone that it wasn’t a good time to hear those cases.
  4. They’re saying maybe, maybe not. The ATF could take 2 identical saint pistols and declare one an AOW, the other not and they won’t determine that unless they have the actual item in hand. So all the “Large Handguns” out there are basically Schroedinger’s AOWs at this point. You don’t get to find out until a cop decides he wants to make an issue of it and arrest/seize/submit for a determination.
  5. As posted by Tim from Military Arms Channel This was sent to me for sharing on social media (see link below). The law firm of Wiley Rein is one of the largest law firms in the firearms industry and represents a number of major manufacturers in their dealings with the BATF and regulations. This is NOT a joke nor is it speculation. This is a stark warning of things to come and I hope it prompts you to take political action. This letter is about several things but primarily it is something you should take very seriously because of recent actions by the BATF that will affect any owner of AR15 pistols, AK pistols, HK pistols, etc. Yes, this means your Saint AR pistol or your Draco. That's exactly what the ATF is targeting. There are several things of importance in this email. First: It goes against the Trump administrations Executive Order mandating such regulatory practices cease. The BATF has lead the charge is thumbing their nose at the President and his DOJ under the leadership of Attorney General Barr. Second: Any firearm that has a barrel length that is too long, or the firearm is too heavy will be considered not importable by the BATF. No more pistol versions of rifles will be importable. Third and the MOST IMPORTANT: Through unwritten interpretation of regulations and through private correspondence with unspecified companies, the ATF has capriciously and arbitrarily decided that ANY AR15 pistol, AK pistol, HK pistol, etc. is an ANY OTHER WEAPON (AOW) and thus is subject to the NFA and taxation. Any company who produces such firearms for sale in the United States and any consumer/owner of such firearms are either manufacturing or in possession of illegal AOW's. This is being retroactively enforced. It does not matter if you bought a previously approved firearm. The only way you can be for certain you are not in possession of an illegal NFA item is to personally submit your AR15 pistol, AK pistol, etc. to the ATF for a determination. This can take up to a year and any letter given to you is only for you. The ATF is getting around the EO's by claiming they're not making any permanent determination and their decisions are in essence fluid and subject to change. When you were willing to hand over bump stocks, we warned you it was not about the bump stocks, it was about HOW they were doing it. This is why Gun Owners of America and I are suing the federal government. When they started talking about reclassifying braced pistols as SBR's, you laughed and said people who bought them were stupid. Now, as we warned, they're coming for your regular AR15 and AK pistols. Is it so funny now? WAKE UP! Contact your representatives TODAY and tell them you will NOT stand for the ATF making such capricious and arbitrary rules thus turning millions of Americans into felons over night. Sit silent now and you will have no one to blame but yourselves for what comes next. GET POLITICALLY ACTIVE. Letter from Wiley Rein: https://bit.ly/3otxo2t Contact your Reps: https://bit.ly/3jpVzva
  6. That’s about pretty average over the last number of years. It’s way better than when I got mine and the wait was over a month. Some of the cats here who’ve been carrying for a couple decades will tell you stories of having to wait in excess of 3 months.
  7. Sonovabitch! What next? 2020 is asshoe!
  8. Man, I love that ACSS reticle. I just wish Nightforce would license it. So I could marry my favorite reticle with my favorite glass.
  9. Just discovered a new feature that I really, really love. It’s super awesome. “4 Weeks later”!!!!!! Do y’all see that?! It lets you know where there is a time gap between posts! Man I hope folks notice that. You can do your part to help end 10 year old necroposts.
  10. Yup. It’s a mobile menu. The mobile skin is excellent. It’s a major update over the old one and so much more useful for me. Especially since I’m a mod and on mobile about 99% of the time.
  11. They are Gen 3 Elbit thin filmed white phosphor tubes in an AB RNVG housing. Wilcox G-24 mount on a Hard Head Veterans ballistic helmet.
  12. Am I wearing a Hawaiian shirt with my NODs? Yes, of course I am.
  13. Only played with them a few minutes, but yeah. The depth perception isn’t as good as the natural eye. Something to definitely be mindful of.
  14. The new mobile skin is very different, but I really dig the new menu at the bottom. It makes navigation a lot faster.
  15. No, it’s got a unique frame shape.
  16. The problem is you have an oddball gun that nobody has a blue gun for. I know a company that I’m pretty sure will, but you’ll have to drive to Lexington, KY. NSR Tactical.
  17. That’s the standard blue label program. This temporary program does cover folks like us who didn’t do 20.
  18. That’s an awesome and informative video. Appreciate you sharing it with us.
  19. Man, I wish I would’ve known about that a few months ago.
  20. In case y’all weren’t aware, I love the FN FAL. It was the best .308 battle rifle fielded in the 20th century and is still serving military and police units around the world. Here is some awesome footage of Brazilian police using a FAL in an aerial interdiction of a fugitive.
  21. Little of column a, little of column b. I always hope for Memphis to win. But it’s way more important to me that the Vols lose.
