Ask them why my Scorpion EVO mag release required several iterations of removal and filing in order to work reliably...

I understand Kim is wandering around out there.

Sounds like I really screwed up by not being there. Oleg and Jay should be there.

Stop by the NMLRA booth and let me know what is going on there.

I still need to meet Kim.

because Scorpion had the mag well and mag release changed between iterations of the gun without letting people know.

Thanks, that explains a lot.

At the NMLRA booth, if it has not left the scene yet, you might find Kevin Jensen. He is one of my Field Representatives. For your purposes he was elected to the South Dakota House of Representatives. Really nice guy. You might find some common ground with him.

It's looking like its a weird one this year. The Franklin Musket for $2k and maybe 4 moa, the AR-ified Thompson, the Rapidly Deployabe Bayonet, etc.

I did like that lever action that was modernized and while PSA is off my buy list I enjoy that they'll be cutting the legs out from under the MP5 market.
