View Full Version : LaRue Tactical
LaRue always sends some kind of goodies with every order. Among the latest was a new sticker "Eschew Ethnicity". What do you make of the intended meaning?

I would guess something to the effect of be an American and not a member of some racialist groupthink enclave
Haven't seen Dillo Dust in awhile...
More unneeded, unnecessary, un-asked for “We’re not racist” virtue signaling.
Just gimme yer Paprika and a hat and call it a day

I miss the dildo dust. Even asked them at the SHOT show a few years ago if I could buy some, they said they were out.

Everybody at my work loves the bumper stickers. I hand them out in cubicles all over the place.
I like the range at two. The tan color is a good contrast to write your name on the back of it so when you’re in a class the instructor knows who you are.

I just got the same sticker recently. Not that I'd ever use it, but if I did I'm pretty sure some idiot's would actually assume it means I am racist . . .

So taken literally it would mean to avoid ethnic affiliation? As in Japaneses American, African American, etc. Just American...
Is that the point?

Until we all Identify as American first, the problem will not resolve. We are a melting pot. So some of these assholes need to melt in to become an American. Dont bring Somalia here, you left for a reason, so bring the best parts here and grow with the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. Become AMERICAN!
Larue thread- Buddy of mine ordered a 6.5 two weeks ago and its done. So Larue is doing great on turnaround, unlike some of the other companies.

I think thats the intended message behind the new LaRue sticker.

That is the first thing that came to mind when I read the opening post.
I found a metal dillo bottle opener in a drawer the other day. Started using it.

I've always tossed the bumper stickers anyway. They seem to appeal to the boomer crowd that likes to share Sam Elliott memes on Facebook with quotes he's never said.
The Dillo Dust was basically a grocery store shelf grade dry rub so I didn't really miss it when it stopped showing up.
The hats were the best thing about the swag and they stopped sending those quite a while ago.

Bumper stickers are stupid imo. Better to be the gray man. I don’t announce gun ownership or anything else on my car, social media, or on my lawn.
I gave away all the bumper stickers because they were just kinda gross to me. If I were 16 again, I’d think they were cool.
Of all the Larue Stuff I bought at one time; I never got the OD hat. That’s okay. My Oakley SI hat of all things is comfy.
Still of all the bumper stickers, I thought this was the best Shots Fired on Larue

Last time I ordered from LaRue was back in 2017. MBT arrived with this.

I certainly don't display any stickers, but I was curious about that one
I like a little flair for my toolbox or basement beer fridge.

Same. I even pull the stealership stickers off my vehicles. I will rock a small US flag sticker on my back window, but that's about it.

I've gotten a few Geissele hats with my last couple of orders from them. I would guess BCM/Bravo Company USA still do, as well, but it's been a while since I've ordered anything from them.
I’m kinda over gun swag. It’s sorta cringe honestly to advertise for folks. I have hates I got from classes or crap I bought and usually they get gifted or sit up somewhere.
But then, I don’t feel like people need to believe I am a “gun guy”.
Plus most are made in China anyways

I got a hat from BCM when I ordered an upper.
However, I can't recall if I ordered from them or through Grant.

Thanks ****ers, now I have to go pick up something from Geissele...
While my vehicle is sticker free, my Yetis are not. They're COVERED, almost completely with gun company stickers. I figure if you and I are having a beer or putting meat in a cooler, it's probably OK that you know I own guns......
My trigger is supposed to show up tomorrow, I'll report back if I get any swag. Kind of hoping one of those trigger pull testers to show up, it would make a cool piece on my desk.

You’re not paying me, I’m not advertising for you. Period.
Stickers I just throw away. I do have the hats, though. The only one I wear with any regularity is an old-school Vickers. I had a dillo I gave to someone, wish I had another.
I don't order products based on the swag that came with it.
Some swag I've appreciated and used, some is just gunclown.
As years go on, I'm less inclined to be a billboard for others - with rare exception.

Hats are always useful, even if just for a yard work hat. Stickers I don't care anymore.
With the current political climate and my stage of life and career I don't wear any of the cop stuff, gun stuff, or political stuff.
Stickers cover my two safes. Now I gift all of the cool guy stuff to the younger cops here. They love it as did I at one time of my life. I still have a few old NTOA convention or class shirts and hats but they don't get worn except for yard work.
My truck has two small stickers in the back window, Iraq and Afghan vet and I'm thinking of even pulling them. Gray is good.

I put gun stickers on random Toyota Priuses and other minivans at the grocery store......or anything with a Biden/Harris sticker..
:D
Most stickers go on my tool boxes, laptop or safe....I like swag..
Maybe I'll start putting them over the obama stickers I still see...

Although the LT bottle openers are pretty great, too.

Seriously low-profile. Those in the know might think you were in the Navy. Or had an STD. Or both.

I have a garage door that opens into the back of mygarage from a connected garage, it is rarely closed since the buildings are attached to each other now, but when it is it's covered with firearms manufacturers/dealers stickers.
I did put a small Umbrella Corporation Weapons Research Group decal in the upper left corner of my truck's rear window, people talk to me about the game - which I know nothing about.

Triarc sent me a pen. I use the shit out of it. I also use my FCD pencil and LT bottle opener.
I don’t really want any swag. I’d rather my order be a dollar less. I even remove the swag package from my cart when I order stuff from G, and they send it anyway.

I saw a joke a a while back about someone saying they were going to put a bunch of Trump/Pence stickers on cars at a BLM rally.

So the protesters will destroy each other’s shit. Advanced level trolling.
I don't order from one person or another based on the swag but it is cool to get a little something extra when you open a package. As for Larue, I received my trigger yesterday. I bought a dillo because I needed a bottle opener for my shop and they included two bumper stickers.
I'm not one for putting stickers on my car- not only do I like blending into the crowd but I live in a really progressive suburb and I don't need my car getting messed with. I reserve stickers for Pelican cases, my safe, tool boxes etc

No joke, it was being done in Portland with predictable results.
Gun swag is dumb. I don't have any use for shitty hats or lame stickers, and I don't need any dildo dust, thank-you-very-much. At my house, all that crap goes in the garbage with the packing materials.
I'd rather they just knocked $5 off my order than send me a bunch of nonsense.

But then nobody will know that you’re a GUN GUY. It’s important for people to know you’re a GUN GUY. I mean women need to see another short, balding beardo wearing gun crap so they can know what an Alpha male is. How do you expect to mog Democrats without wearing GUN GUY stuff or getting a Bolt face tattoo?!?!

Same with students on honor roll or the stick figure families. No one cares. You're not original, you're not unique. You're cookie cutter and boring. You're the white jelly bean.

That was a good plan. Why didn’t we?
