Daniels Defense urges customers to support Fix NICS Bill

[Shooter45]

I got an email from Daniels Defense a few days ago stating how they support the Fix NICS and urging all customers to contact their Senators in support of it. Definite surprise to me.

Just go a email that he says he made a mistake and is now not supporting the bill.

I received the email too. He says and I quote

I was wrong

I got the same email saying they no longer support it. They must have gotten enough emails and phone calls protesting their decision.

Me thinks Mr. Daniel quickly realized that his stance would have a detrimental effect on future DD earnings ...and 180 degree turn!

Curious how many DD true believers will now call for a boycott of their products. It's happened for the same if not less in the gun industry. He already expressed his feelings, then when pressured ($$$$) changed his tune.

Shame he would take the original stance initially, that being said, the DD rifle I had wasn't very reliable, albeit a very nice rifle otherwise.

As a broad concept, I supported the idea of some legislation to improve the background check system. If I have to pay the money every time I purchase the gun, at least the system should do what they claim it does. So it should have all the criminal records from all agencies. As it is now, I pay that money, and know the system is so screwed up that it'll let bad guys thru regularly.

The problem comes when they subvert the bill, adding in ways to fail due to things that don't go thru due-process. I genuinely believe Daniels Defense supported the concept of at least making NICS data correct and complete, but was naive enough to think that the politicians wouldn't try to add crap that circumvents due process.

Edit: I know, the checks won't stop criminals who ignore the system completely and purchase on the black market. But for as long as we're required to pay money and use the system, why not make sure it has all the criminal records that cities/states/counties/the military "forget" to enter into the system.

Some republican should attach something to the new bill that provides funding for, and imposes some response times to challenges as we, so that if someone gets wrongly denied, they have a more direct path to resolve it.

I will never buy another new DD product from them as long as Marty is on the pay roll.

Company policy via popular opinion. -Sounds an awful lot like every politician in existence.

There was absolutely ZERO reason for them/him to open their mouth in the first place.

Contrast DD with Geissele - I prefer the latter:
