Wait, what the hell did I just watch?
This industry is bizarre.

Kiowa pilot turned Hooker.
Is this a thread about who was sitting with whose ex in the lunchroom?
Go through the arms room at 2/75. Lots of rifles with no backup sights.
Watching that, all I could think was, "Good for him, he is physically fit to jump up on a trunk of a sedan, or clear a hay bale, just not smart enough to find another route."
I'll grant that DD is top of the line quality, almost a decent price for their products. Promotional videos like that rarely if ever are a deciding factor for me - other than to take the spokesperson seriously as a SME". Even their torture test video sold me more on Aimpoint than their rifle. I'd have taken that more seriously if they had done the same thing to three other brands at the same time.
I can agree that I would not have Pincus on my list of instructors after watching that.
So, if LAV is done with DD or vise-versa, it's a small matter. They still have a good product. If they start cutting costs in house and dropping quality standards, then that is not a small matter.

I know it is sad and hilarious at the same time but I bet if Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham supported and endorsed DPMS, DPMS's sales probably would increase a lot. You have to understand that the average Joe consumer knows nothing about guns, does not shoot guns, and learns from Hollywood. It is important to keep in mind who the audience is.

We miss you, AC.
We miss you, ToddG.
Rob lost some major man points with that hay bale jump, and DD just shot up the corny meter.
Yeah caught that too, among other things. Trainer preference. Just went through the same thing in my most recent class I took (why doing a thing one way, when another way works as good or better). Decided that this is his class, this is his method, I have the option to do it in a different way I was taught.
