Well folks, it’s in the wild now. A Compact Echelon is on the way! I’m thinking Recoil Magazine is off the list for Springfields pre-release testing.

Adidas got caught (seriously what did they expect) being full on Nazi's. Producing a new shoe specifically promoted as the Olympic '72 shoe (when the 11 Israeli athletes were murdered) and then having a vocal anti-Israel Palestinian as the spokesperson?! Seriously, wtf...
Heard that the Clay & Buck show (formerly Rush Limbaugh’s show) is pushing Bear Creek now. Not just ads but personal testimonials from the guys…WOW, just wow, the show has gone to the bottom dollar in advertising. I love the show but it makes me question every other advertiser they have.

The government charged Yakaitis, who is in his mid-70s, with using a firearm without a license after he shot Powanda, despite that it appears prosecutors agree Yakaitis justifiably used that same firearm in self-defense.

Hey all,
Is there a suppressor out that that can handle a 7.5" SA PDW in 5.56? I know it's a hell of a lot to ask of a can but there's got to be something out there that can take that kind of abuse. TIA
OKPP
The ultra lib attack on our gun rights gets a win in Philly. 80% suppliers JSD and Poly80, the makers/sellers of "ghost guns" agreed to temporarily stop sales in the city.

What are y’all’s thoughts on this being released? My thought is it’s about dang Time it was revealed. The politicians trying to hide it made the need for it to be released palpable...
5th circuit panel rules ATF ghost gun rules (frame/receiver definition update) unconstitutional. Will be appealed to SCOTUS so we’re likely to see another beat down on the ATF...
Do stupid things, get stupid consequences.
My comment is really more on the left’s upcoming use of this as political theater. Not calling red flag or anything, the dude probably got what was coming, it’s just textbook as a call to arms (no pun intended) for the left...
I know a lot of people have already chimed in on the Echelon but I wanted to give my initial impressions.
First, weight:
Xdm Compact 9mm 28oz (my edc)
XDM Elite 4.5” 9mm 31oz (for apples to apples comparison)
Echelon 4.5” 9mm 24oz
That is ½ pound lighter than the XDME and ¼...
My father got into guns when I was a teenager. Just a gun for the house and one for the truck, small town Oklahoma ya know. The truck gun was the Taurus PT-111 Millennium Pro sub compact 9mm. It was a decent gun, shot very well out to 50y, and was small enough to carry if needed. The problem was...
Hellcat RDP w/ Shield SMSc. I had the SMSc and a Swampfox Sentinel laying around but decided against the Sentinel because of its low light problems.
Only holster I can find is a DeSantis Pegasus Slim-Tuk. It’s a decent looking holster, and cheap, but it’s a 1.75” belt, which I have none of, and...
Forum,
It’s gotten a little hot under the collar in here. This is a reminder that you can have a disagreement without getting nasty. For a bit, we’ll be removing posts, with Points, that are deemed to be name calling, overtly rude, or overly aggressive.
And as always, we are part time...
My wife is retired Navy and one of the cool things she’s picked up over the years are Planks. This is given to sailors for a wide variety of events including sailing across the equator or international date line, sailing the attic circle, or establishing a new command.
I know we have some plank...
So I'm close to my next purchase. I have a Hellcat but am considering a Pro to replace my XDM compact. For those who have shot both, how much bigger is the Pro vs the Standard? I know the measurements. I'm looking for how big/small it feels, how it rides vs other compact guns. I love my XDM...
