How do you really feel?Originally Posted by cofi
I am not fond of companies either that think they are so "elite" they go completely against what everyone else in the industry is currently doing.

I'm sorry, I have to agree...Those with "zero fuck" can go fuck themselves...
Too many dumbasses nowadays shooting themselves or others because of the number #1 violation of firearm safety: don't put your finger on the trigger unless you mean it. if your taking a "selfie", at least do it responsibly; there are way too many shitbirds out there that take these pics literally...
My $.02, and if you disagree, see 1st sentence

Never-mind to my own post; let the chlorine cleanse the gene pool!

If I could trust KelTec not to screw things up and either make a rifle that doesn't work right (like the RFB) or not produce enough to meet demand and thus have to jack the MSRP up to compensate (like the KSG) I'd be more excited about their 5.56mm bullpups.
So far the only thing I've seen in the coverage of SHOT this year that has me all that excited is the new Remington R51. Basically they've moderninzed the century old Model 51 and made a real interesting modern but classic CCW piece.

Sort of like how Kimber modernized the Colt 1903 with the Solo ... only for half the money (MSRP is either $389 or $430 ... I've read both, but either is a decent price) and hopefully this one works.
So I wonder if Savage will consider modernizing their 1907 now

Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
I throw up in my mouth a little every time I see that Remington.
I thought this was pretty cool from BURRIS AR-1x sight, MarkCO I think mentioned it. I like the idea of having a reticule even if your battery dies. Looked well designed and compact. Then I read the full specs, ouch! $300 MSRP, and weights 13.2 ounces, damn, heavy as hell. That is the same weight as the 3x AR332 sight.
For 60% the cost of an AIMPOINT and more than 2 times the weight not sure if it is my thing.

IIRC he was talking about the next gen of the XTR Honorable mentions, the Burris XTR2 line up i linked here. The XTR i have is a nice unit.
