No more shipping ammo to New York

Got an email today from one the largest ammo retailers Lucky gunner saying they will no longer ship ammo to New York. I have re posted the contents of this sad news for New York shooters below:     

Hello New York Lucky Gunners,

We are sorry to report some bad news about New York's SAFE Act and how it will impact shooters access to ammo in the state.

While bits and pieces of the law have been delayed (thanks to the government's inability to create a website) other portions of the law, like requiring face-to-face ammo transactions are still on-track to be enacted in mid-January. That means Lucky Gunner, and all other online retailers, will no longer be able to directly ship you ammunition.

We have hired outside legal counsel to help guide us toward any legal ways we can keep working with you in the future and we remain hopeful that in the coming days and weeks we'll have more information. However, until we are able to identify a solution that won't require us to risk massive monetary fines, jail-time, or inhibit our ability to serve shooters in other states, we're forced to discontinue shipping to our friends in New York. It's an awful situation and we're incredibly sorry it has come to this.

We will accept and ship all orders placed before January 14 at 3 p.m. (ET)

We cannot stress enough how honored we are to have earned your trust as an ammo supplier. As a thank you to New York shooters, we're offering free shipping on all orders of $200 and more until that January 14 at 3 p.m. (ET) deadline.

Free shipping will automatically apply on all orders placed today through the 14th that are shipped to New York. There is no limit to how much you can order and we urge you to not only stock up but also reach out to your state senator and state representative if you haven't already. 

Thank you for almost five great years,

-Angela and Chris

715t rifle swat grade grip

The 715t rifle swat grade grip is a very nice forward grip system that is a major improvement over your traditional vertical fore grip and very similar to the Magpul AFG.

The 715t rifle swat grade grip is made from polymer and designed ergonomically to help the shooter with fatigue, accurate and attains a more natural shooting position when aiming and shooting the rifle.

Unlike the competition the 715t rifle swat grade grip does provide some storage space on the back strap of the grip. Perfect for storing extra batteries or small amount of first aid supplies.

What i did not like was there was no supplied allen key to mount 715t rifle swat grade grip on your picatinny rail, but it takes a standard Allen key that most shooters should have in there tool box.

Over all its a solid,ergonimic and light weight grip that is worth a look at if you are shopping around for a fore grip for 715t rifle or any other rifle with a full 1913 mil-spec rail for accepting accessories..

See the pictures below.

Legendary firearm instructor Chris Costa set for Hollywood ?

Ok, no I am just playing, but the legendary firearm instructor who shot to worldwide fame in the Magpul firearm instructor series of dvds and who went on to start his own training and consulting firm Costa Ludus has now applied his skills to a new venture Costa Media Group. The Costa Media Group will focus on creating cinematic commercials to showcase firearm related items. I just watched the first commercial and one word sums it up:dope.

Watch the commercial below and then watch the next video of behind the scenes footage. I think Chris is now Hollywood material.




Now the Behind the scene video:

Taurus CTG240 CARBINE

This new carbine from Taurus is definitely a looker.  Light weight and fitted with an AR15 styled pistol grip the Taurus CTG240 CARBINE looks like its a blast to shoot. The charging handle is on the front of the carbine and is also ambidextrous. The Taurus CTG240 CARBINE utilizes a nice ghost ring sight setup and the front post also has a white dot for easy target acquisition. Other notable features are the full length top rail and mag well type forward grip.  On closer look what I don't like is the mag release on this thing.  See the pictures below and video review by Conceal Carry Show, for more info check out the Taurus CTG240 CARBINE page.
