    There are two of them for sale at a local shop I used to spend time at when I lived in GA. Bullseye indoor range and gun shop in Lawrenceville had a couple for sale a year ago. They probably still have them.

    I should have picked one up before I left the state when I had a chance. Maybe I will give Randy a call and see if he will transfer one to my local Class III dealer.

    The Mirage was a visual clone of the Colt/KAC unit. The latter dates back to the late '80s or early '90s.

    I still should have picked up AAC's "clone" when I had the chance but thanks for the history. I wondered where that design came from.

    Why is 5th man not covering the 6 and why is 4th man not covering the 3 and 4

    And no, this is not a joke...it was taken from the.....Tazewell municipal site.

    Clearly this department could benefit from The Chart. My 1st reaction is to laugh out loud, but in all seriousness it's really not funny.

    If a budget is slim, I understand...but there is simply no good reason to outfit any tactical team with such nonsense.
    Damn !!! those things must get hot, they look like something from the movie, "Escape From New York" I think I would have called in sick the day the picture was taken.
    IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT ! DON'T LOOK AT IT !

    Condition 1:
    Those are first generation Bushmaster Carbon Pistols that came out "before" the sunset of the AWB when they were not allowed to have handguards (why, I am not sure).

    The AWB didn't allow manufactures to produce a pistol with more than 1 of the evil features and since they already had a magazine outside of the pistol grip they couldn't have a barrel shroud. The Brady Bunch would tell you that it's so you couldn't grip them with the 2nd hand forward of the main pistol grip, call it the Tec-9 rule...

    oh yeah.. cause gripping a pistol ahead of the main grip is such a deadly way to hold a gun.

    those guys with the pistol things crack me up. probably be better off with their 9mm's.
    when man first put a buttstock on a firearm.... that was a big day.

    The vests look suspiciously AirSoft like....Leapers anyone? And yes, the first think I noticed was the head shot potential and the laser pointers handing off the bottom....
    Must have got their stuff from Jerkwater Tactical Supply...Poor guys...
