    I've heard that he's a fan of the "one muscle movement for everything" argument...

    But I dunno... that's dumb.

    When I'm being shot at, I want the gun working now. Not later. Plus, the thing that sucks about malfs is that not only does the gun stop working, but the motion it takes to clear it sucks, and we work to make our malf clearances faster. So why would you slow down a reload?

    So much spilled Kool-Aid in this thread. I never understand why people give two shits about this. Who gives a flying **** who endorses who? Why don't you guys just focus on buying products based on reputation and quality instead of who is doing their advertisements? That would be like me refusing to buy a Ford F-150 because I hate Dennis Leary. Jesus, some of you people are dense.

    Even if Pincus is their new endorser and Vickers is out, I'm not going to sell my Daniel Defense and buy the next thing LAV endorses, whether it be BCM, Colt, or someone else.

    Whats a Jimmy Choo?

    Agreed tho, never heard of Pincus either. Not a fan of the vid, but as long as my DD continues to exceed my expectations I have no qualms.

    Not me. That's why I put the disclaimer in my original post about DD making a quality product regardless of who endorses them.

    Regarding putting this in the SME forum, I thought it might be rude to put Larry on the spot like that in case he couldn't answer the question because of a contract issue. I thought by posting it here, Larry would have the opportunity to respond if he wanted, but also others who might have industry knowledge on the subject could respond.

    Time to go against the grain again, at least a little bit.

    The video is actually impressive in a very real way. Besides showing a level of physical fitness that some would aspire to accurate shooting is more difficult following physical exertion.

    Having said that, the video was more a promotion of Pincus and the product was almost secondary. I also think that many of the physical activities are needlessly extraneous and few obstacles will need to be navigated in such theatrical manner.

    And I agree, somebody really does need to re edit that video with the theme song and sound effects from the Six Million Dollar Man. That would be hilarious.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.
