Gun products to avoid.

[JamisJockey]

I have no first hand knoweldge of the quality of thier products....but thier advertising is the lamest, most brain dead Mall Ninjery around. The advertising campaign insults my intelligence.

I particularly enjoy the guy in black face on the right.

 

[atblis]

Flack

I am sure some one some where loves it, but Remoil...what is that crap actually good for?

 

[hexidismal]

hehe , I posted this way back in a discussion about "extreme shock" ammo... since it came up ...

heres my extreme shock parody .. YES it's intentionally over the top and bad.. because explosions, lightning, and ninjas are what shooting is all about

 

[The Deer Hunter]

Triple K magazines

That just seems so wrong. No wonder they work.

 

[indie]

i want some extreme shock now.

 

[2RCO]

The funny thing is the Parody of Extreme Shock isn't as lame as the original. I will most certainly not be buying their products. Now Ninja Maxx I'll take a crate.

Fishing reels,actually.

I'll agree with everything except the Kel-tec, which have been decent little guns in my experience (and those of my shooting buddies). They go bang every time with Cor-Bon ammo and can hit the k-zone at 7 yards, what more can you expect for $200 bucks?

I don't like Uncle Mikes holsters. Never had a single one that worked as well as good leather.

Their tactical pants appear to be exploding! That would really suck to do a forced entry all fancied up like that, only to have your pants explode.

 

[Ohio Rifleman]

While you're entitled to your opinion, I got my Ruger 10/22 with a decent scope sighted in for $213. It's plenty accurate, at least I think so. I just plink with it. Haven't had a single malfunction with it either, despite it's diet of cheap Remington Thunderbolt ammo.

 

[Eyesac]

All cheap scopes are to be avoided.

 

[ptmmatssc]

Extreme shock ammo? Hmmmm.....

think I'll pass.

I believe that USA mags are long since defunct.
The only reason you see them today is because they liquidated their vast inventory and most of it still sits in discount sellers warehouses!!

To be fair, the small Kel-Tec guns, especially the P3AT, do seem to have problems pretty often. Go over to the Kel-Tec Owners Group (ktog.org) and you'll see lots of complaints. The good news is that the company fixes them free, and very quickly, and the turnaround time is lightning fast. Most of them work fine, anyway.

I have a P3AT in hard chrome, and it's worked 100% from day one. Best power-to-size-and-weight ratio on the market; I recommend it totally. If you get a bum one, send it back and it'll work; small chance to take for the price.

RG made the worst guns in the history of firearms. I've seen better quality grips on guns from Mattel.

My only beef with Lorcin and related firms (a lot of these cheap-gun manufacturers seem to belong to members of the same family) isn't that they're cheap--the poor have gun rights too, as has already been pointed out--but that they seem to end up with a LOT of their guns "stolen" or "missing from inventory". coincidentally, a LOT of their guns seem to end up on the black market. If I were a suspicious guy, I might say that it sure looks like they've set up a lucrative marketing deal with the Crips and MS-13. Even if not, that kind of lax security is incredibly irresponsible.

Quality control is hard to find these days, anyway. I have seen, with my own eyes, a gun dealer open a shipment of guns from Smith & Wesson to find a revolver with a live round in the cylinder...

I owned an RG-10 once. I think I had it for about a week before I sold it at the next gunshow for $27.00! It was hard to sell at any price. It was a total POS.

That's fantastic. A three man tactical response team from one of the nation's largest indoor shopping areas. With exploding pants. This is the second funniest picture I've seen on here all week (#1 being a poster of an out of shape guy in too much gear saying "don't worry ma'am, I'm from the internet").

Honestly, I own some fine, expensive guns, but I also own some cheap guns. They have their places. If I'm going to wade around in the duckpond mud, maybe I want to take the ugley shotgun instead of the Purdey shotgun. I like stuff to function, and be fixable if it breaks, and I don't own any "safe queens", but an inexpensive firearm has its place.

Noise

This thread is, right now, at about 60% noise.

If we can't get some signal going, I'm afraid it's gonna lock all by itself.

Threads do that sometimes.

They get depressed if the signal/noise ratio gets too low.

 

[revjen45]

The Extreme Shock ad almost seems like a parody of itself.

Here is where I see this thread heading:

Everything that I own = good

Everything that you own = crap

 

[LightningJoe]

Kel-Tec P-32 = good.


For this kind of thread, I recommend staying away from guns and just concentrating on gun products (e.g. WalMart cleaning rods).
