Crusader Sterling SMG: Place Your Order.

36 Comments


Those of you that said you wanted a Sterling.  We are doing a limited run of these guns as these are a side project.   Because of this these guns must be pre-paid.  Price is $639.99 each.

These are Semi-Auto Only, 9mm, Slipstream Treated internals, Duracoat finished.  A perfect vehicle to SBR and/or suppress.

To Place Your Order. Contact Joe at Crusader Weaponry to send your payment for the gun and specify your Color.   Flat Black, Olive Drab, or Coyote Brown. (some parts will be black and/or Slipstreamed Grey)
Check your State Laws to see if these are legal.  They are classified as 9mm Rifles.

For some more information on the Sterling, I offer a link to this informational video.   To show you what these things originally were capable of, I will show you this video… but please note – we are only selling semi auto only versions with 16 inch barrels… not actual Submachineguns as shown below:

More Trolley Square Trauma

2 Comments

The subject of the Trolley Square Shooting is back in the news.  Back in 2007 there was a shooting spree at the Trolley Square Mall in SLC.  I remember that day clearly.  I was going to take my Son to Trolley Square so we could buy a gift for Mrs. Ogre from her favorite little store there at Trolley Square.  We were about to head out when I mentioned my destination to a co-worker. That co-worker said “That store isn’t there anymore.”   Had we left then instead of going to a Plan B… my Son and I would have been there at Trolley Square, and I would have parked where I always parked, going in that entrance I always go there.   We would have been right there in the center of the shooting.

Firearms Finishes

About Gun Finishes:  (This is an old article that I’ve updated)

Picking out a new gun is a complicated chore.  You have caliber, style, size, features, etc.   I’ve talked about these subjects before.  However, I’ve never really talked about an important aspect of the selection process… The finish.  It’s actually an important factor in the gun’s functionality.  There are a number of finish options to choose from.  Each one has it’s advantages and disadvantages beyond appearance.  Stainless, Blued, Nickel, Parkerized, Chrome, Coated… There are more options coming out every time you turn around.  Really the question lays with you and how, when and where you are going to be using the firearm.  Also, your hygiene.  How and how often clean the weapon… Not personal.  If you are a slob and really don’t want care about the gun all that much, then blued is not the finish for you and you might want a Stainless or Coated gun.   Lets not make any choices just yet.  Instead, let’s look at each finish and see what they have to offer.

Question… Would you want one?

39 Comments

Now, this is a hypothetical question… nothing is planned… just me and my wild ideas here.

Let’s say Crusader Weaponry did a small run of custom, semi-auto, legal 16″ barreled (so no special paperwork needed), British Sterling SMG’s.  9mm, of course.  34 round mag.  Folding stock.

All the internals cleaned, deburred, Slipstreamed, and otherwise fitted.  Trigger pull improved.  External, the gun is Duracoated a Flat Black, Wolf Grey, or Olive Drab… your choice.  And let’s say that you could get that gun for… oh, say… only 600 bucks.

Would you want one?   Well, yes, of course you do.  You are Gun Guys and Gals, and Want isn’t the problem…   The real question is “Would you BUY one?”

BTW, yes, you could totally bring this to a Crusader Carbine Course… because that would be just that sweet.  Easy weapon to handle and shoot and hit with.  Slight Variations on normal carbine tactics, but still very workable and effective.   And Cheap To Feed.   Fun… Sterlings are made out of Fun.

Our friend, Outbreak has taken the first steps to Glock Ownership.  The Infection. The seed has been implanted and is taking hold inside his brain.  Soon he will get one in his hand… take it to the range… then shooting it.  Then the realization will hit him… Glocks are Good.  And then he will buy one of his own.

And then he will be ONE OF US.
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

Great news for Crusader Weaponry!

Oh man… guys, I am so excited about what is going on with Crusader… I’m absolutely giddy. I can’t say, just yet what the details are… but this is going to be huge for Crusader, and the company we are partnering up with to provide a custom weapons package for them. And when you hear who we are working with, your jaws are going drop.
This is awesome… a custom Carbine and Sidearm combo that is going rock to a shockingly high degree.

Bullet Proof

5 Comments

A friend gave me an old Military bullet proof vest and an extra ballistic panel.  These are out-dated units and well beyond the years they are certified for protection. He was going to give them to someone else, but that person mentioned putting it on and having someone shoot him.  So I got it.

As soon as I get a proper laptop that can process video again… There will be some fun subject matter!   I have a lot of videos planned that I want to do, and now I think I’ve just come up with a half dozen more.

Armchair Quarterbacking: TAURUS handguns

Part One.

Here we go again guys… Yes, I know its so soon since I just did Mossberg.  But I’ve some thoughts on Taurus here and now.
Taurus has come a long way, Baby.  These guys have made a mint on the Judge revolver series, and everyone knows all about them, even people who don’t know guns.  Because according to one guy that says he knows a guy that is friends with a guy that hunts ducks with them.   Well, I’m not talking about the super serious, uber deadly Judges.   We’re going to talk about the other stuff Taurus makes.

Shoot them all the way to the ground!

Our friend Terry over on WeTheArmed made a hillarious spoof. The story goes back to the merciless mocking of a super serious training video:

Remember… it has to be “brooom!” That’s funny stuff right there.
Here’s Terry’s improvement on the fighting style:

I have to admit that I like Terry’s style better. The old guy just ends with pointing the gun in the target’s face at an inch away. Why end there? Knock the target down and finish it off Gangster Style! Because no court would convict you on this… it was totally self defense and not an opportunity to just straight up kill someone… no…
I bet Massad Ayoob totally teaches the same thing. I mean, this guy here, whatever his name is… he dropped the name Colonel Applegate, right? Yeah, totally legit.
