Not a gun… but a really interesting training tool.

Current line is most of the popular pistols out in the ecosystem. Requires you to get a headset, but Black Friday deals are ongoing…

Why is Anderson Cooper shooting your gun? You can tell it's him by the hair.

This has become my primary training tool. It's very easy to blast along without realizing how much time you've been at it. If you like training, it's a hoot.

It has pluses and minuses compared to dry fire, so it's best though of as going hand in hand with dry fire.

Its nothing close to my more spendy quality guns but it goes bang when you want it to go bang

Terrible mass shooting in Australia (which must be fake news because guns are illegal there and they even did a confiscation). But an awesome display of courage for a dude that was able to jump one of the gunman and take his gun away even after apparently being shot twice in the process. The gunman then kinda stood there in disbelief and slowly backed away. More proof that most mass shooters are cowards and will stop when they're confronted with force.

Oh look. More predictable consequences from importing foreigners with a completely different culture and ideology then failing to integrate them because of "multiculturalism."

Even better, the hero to stop them was another foreigner who apparently had integrated.

The West needs to figure out what changed between the time when we welcomed foreigners dreaming of being American to now when we bring in a bunch of worthless young men who hate our society and yearn for paradise.

There was a time when actual assimilation was demanded. It would not work out well for an immigrant who didn’t fully assimilate. Fast forward to today when all the soft, ignorant people practically advocate for the exact opposite. Personally, I think there’s a balance between the Ellis Island heyday and current day. That balance is something like you don’t have to change your name, completely erase your heritage, forget your native language, etc. But, you must assimilate to western values and way of life, as well as abide by our laws. We also should not be bending over backwards to placate to what “you” came from. If you don’t like learning English and adapting to American society, then GTFO and go back to wherever you came from.

I hate California. We have substandard options and have to pay a 20% tax on all firearms.

60 rounds magazine? Amazing. 6x our legal capacity.

I can’t believe states get away with laws that blatantly violate the constitution. How has every single one not been eradicated by SCOTUS cases at this point; it’s insanity.

I haven’t purchased anything since last year.. do you have to pay that surcharge if you buy at an AAFES or MCX?

Do you still have to pay that tax if you buy online and ship to an FFL? I've never paid any sales tax doing that, but then again, I've never lived in a commune like CA.

I have never purchased a firearm from the MCX because as their selection is extremely limited.

I am not positive. The one time I have done that I have not, but it was my friend who has a firearm business. He built me a nice Tikka T3X hunting rifle in 6.5 PRC. I didn't have to pay the surcharge on that purchase.
