It's the economy, stupid...
"The Chart" is great for the economy. Manufacturer's, vendors and gun plumbers all benefit as buyers move to the left of The Chart in search of The Holy Grail of AR-15's. I note with interest an article by Pat Rogers in the most recent SWAT article, "Holy Grail of AR's" describing Sully's latest custom creation, the Grail. Publisher Rich Lubella is even on the cover with one of these carbines in Crye MultiCam (TM). "Our Publisher Can Kick Your Publisher's Butt" is the inscription.
Guys upgrade, selling their lower tier/farther-to-the-right-on-The-Chart gun. This creates a new potential buyer when he learns about The Chart. He upgrades, selling his lower tier/farther-to-the-right-on-The-Chart gun....
Brilliant marketing.
What we REALLY need, though, is cheap, reliable, MADE IN USA ammunition. Head Start has morphed to No Child Left Behind and we, the premier military power on the planet, can't make inexpensive, quality ammunition available to the populace.
