    Right, I remember the Eli Whitney Walkers. But afterwards the Colt company was basically gangbusters until after his death. At least as I understand it.

    Wait, didn't Samuel Colt die as one of the richest men in the country? IIRC Colt's perpetual struggle to find a way to declare bankruptcy came after he was dead.

    Without delimiters (5/16/24) I thought that was a counter of some sort-- Texas power outage 51,624-- and figured "yeah that seems about right."

    Hopefully they get it sorted. Surprisingly no loss...

    Is anyone making an IWB or OWB (any material) that would accommodate an RDS on a K, L or N? There are a few mounts out there that replace the adjustable rear sight, but I don't think I've seen any...

    I put many a brick of .22 through a PPK clone as a yute. The .32 has some appeal. The .22 PPK/S would but it's hard to get past the airsoft pot metal construction. (Aren't those made by Umarex?)

    I think this one was probably misused a bit more than used based on the turn line but that was par for the course.

    lol, yeah I wouldn't buy a Glock from them. For the rare stuff they are, as charitably as possible, priced "on the high side." But they have a lot of rare stuff. Their SAA inventory is impressive...

    I think the gunsmithing cost to get those sights installed, grips and a comparable action job would bring the price closer to parity than you might think.

    The sights really are good. Even without...

    Wait, did I get the order wrong? So CO already has a 15+ mag ban and the AWB for guns/receivers is imminent. So you're stuck with the mags you've got.

    I think the 9mm AR shines as basically an AR that you can shoot PCC division with, and in 2024 I'd be reluctant to try and turn it into something else. If I wanted a 9mm carbine for realsies I'd...

    Reminds me of the proposed ban in PA that (would have) banned 3D printed parts, even for serialized guns. Sounds like IL has something similar on the parts front.

    Ah, makes sense I guess since they copied a bunch of other Glock stuff for the Sigma. Why not do the mag spring too?
