    Okay, well at least the pistol whipping would be cathartic. It's been a bad couple of days on the professional front and therefore I'm a little bit chippy. And Springfield Armory seems like a perfect target to take it out on. I mean...stupid and deliberately underhanded ad copy makes it easier to unleash the hate.

    And yet we have a six page thread about their ad copy and the upcoming product. Seems like the Springfield marketing department is doing their job... 😎

    In the interest of full disclosure, I received the "Saint" email too and couldn't resist clicking around on Springfield's page to see what in the world might me behind the terrible ad copy. I got the impression that it either isn't a gun, or not just a gun.

    Something came across my feed that Santa Claus was arrested in Brazil for manufacturing illicit submachine guns.

    But just a little bit less.
