I unbox an LC9.
Yeah, I’ll get a KelTec PF9 instead.
Operation Gunwalker? More Gun Control!
So the Democrats response to the ATF’s SNAFU, we’re calling Operation Gunwalker, is to bring up the need for more Gun Control. If that makes any sense to you, please don’t ever come back to MadOgre.com again.
I have a better solution to prevent this from happening again – Don’t let the ATF have, possess, deal with, or even look at any Firearms. They can’t even have a copy of Guns & Ammo while on Duty. This situation is so bad, that any and all claim to have done any good whatsoever as an Agency… is completely undone by the damage that this situation has done. You have Agents that protested. You have Dealers that protested. You have Administrators who protested, and you have a Chief that claims he didn’t know anything. He’s either shockingly stupid, or infuriatingly incompetent. Or both. A, B, or C, the response is the same. The BATFE Chief needs to be dismissed. No allowing him to Step Down. I mean kicked out of his office, Perp Walked out of the building, and thrown physically to the street. But that’s not what the Democrats want. They want more Gun Control. Basically giving the BATFE more power. This is like giving a Drunk Driver who just crashed a Double Rum and Coke and the keys to a faster car. Is the DNC completely staffed by morons?
Yes, I think they are.
Man, I love the Sterling
Tonight I did a Detailed Strip and Clean of my Crusader Sterling. The more I “get to know” the Sterling, the more I respect it. Any gun that makes a Mosin Nagant look complicated… I like it.
I have some ideas to help tweak the next batch of Sterlings… as soon as we’re ready to do that with our Upgrade we’re working on. Still tweaking that. So later this summer we’ll do another run of those I think. August maybe.
I’m going to do some Sterling vids on Maintenance and Tactics.
A Naked Goldwing
This is something I’ve wanted to build for years. A Naked Sport bike built off a Goldwing. This guy did it. It’s just not quite finished. If it had a seat, and if it had the cover for the tank, I’d be very tempted to trade my Magna for it. This ginormous Cafe Racer is just cool… at least, I think it’s cool. The drag bars and the stripped down look… I really think that’s as cool as bikes get. I’d paint the thing black and call it the “Deathwing”. Which was the name I’d given the build when I was a teenager. I had some friends that started the project, but never taken it to completion. Much like this one.
The Slipstream Contest has a Winner!
Huey’s Gunsite had a simple contest. The Winner of this contest gets a Free treatment… Slipstream ST-1.
The winner was “KEV”. Congratulations, Kev.
The ST-1 Treatment is basically a permanent application of the Nano Lube that makes Slipstream Oil and Grease so good. We treat your Bolt Carrier Group, Buffer and Spring, and Charging Handle. The result is that your AR feels dramatically different. Much much smoother. It will even sound different. Quieter. A lot quieter. Get the ST-1 treatment for your Production AR and it’s going to feel like a Custom AR. Actually, it’s going to feel better than any other Customer AR I’ve felt.
Thanks to Huey for putting this up. Seriously, thank you very much. This is out of your pocket, all on your own time and you didn’t have to do this. Thank you.
How to buy a new gun and not get killed by the wife
Crusader Racing: Looking for a Testing Volunteer
Crusader Weaponry is about to form a new branch of the company: Crusader Racing. We want to test out Automotive Slipstream product in the harshest crucible of automotive stress… Racing. We are looking for a Volunteer Test Subjects for Slipstream Racing products.
The Candidate needs to be involved in Racing of some sort… Car, Truck, Motorcycle… basically anything with an internal combustion engine and goes fast while looking cool. (Barstool Racing and Lawnmower Racing… need not apply… or any other racing that starts with “Hold my Beer”.)
We’re looking for a Racing Team Car, Truck, or Bike (4 Stroke, and one that doesn’t use a wet clutch!) that is getting ready to do an engine rebuild in the near future. Which is just about any racing team, isn’t it?
We’d like some Data in return. Pre Slipstream Data. Engine noise, vibration, power. And then same information after treatment with Slipstream. How it performs in a race. And then, when you do your rebuild, how the engine internals look.
We are also looking at doing a Racing Sponsorship down the road… so if this works out, you help us… we’ll help you. I don’t know any racing team that wouldn’t like another Sponsorship.
Post a link to your Racing Team, Site, or even just a picture of your Racing rig… or email it to me as some folks would rather do. We’ll pick one or two and get this set up.
Heavy Metal: LWRC REPR
Watch this:
Okay, now the guy says that he feels that the recoil is harsher than other .308 weapons. Then he also says that gun was designed for recoil management in mind. “Recoiled more than any of them…” That’s a fail. The gun was also very poor in accuracy. The parts are banging against each other… that can’t be consistent. The cocking handle causes jams… “it’s a training issue”? Really? That’s a crap design and don’t make an excuse for it. That gun is just a POS. Seriously, if that was my gun, I’d be pissed and I’d want my money back.
Guys, for twice the price of the Crusader Broadsword, it’s less than half the gun. The Broadsword feels like you are shooting a 5.56mm gun. Because it really is designed with recoil management in mind. And it’s a tack driver, because we wanted it to be accurate. The Broadsword shoots groups that make you look like a Ninja Warlock Sniper. At 100 yards, we were shooting 1 hole groups. If you want a good .308 Battle Rifle… there can be only one: The Crusader Broadsword.
Heavy Metal: M-14 Sage EBR
Can you say “Dream Gun”? This is why it’s prominent in Uprising. That’s a badass rifle, on every level.
It’s not meant to look cool… it’s meant to work. All about function. It gives the rifle the means to be adjusted like a tailor fit to the operator and it increases accuracy. They are however, a little spendy. Worth it. Very worth it.
Crusader Sterling upgrades in the works
One of the drawbacks to the Sterling is that it has no way of mounting an optic. We’re fixing that. Our friend JesseL from WTA is working on a very simple and elegant solution. Prototypes are in route to Ogre Ranch for testing.
Should these work out… these will be offered immediately for all those that had ordered one of our Sterlings. They will also be offered as an option for all future Sterling orders.
We learned a lot doing these 9mm SMG’s the first time around. The next run will be even better… especially with these mounts. Yes, there will be another run. Give us a few weeks and we’ll be looking at making that run. We’ve a lot of business to take care of first, but its coming.
