Saturday February 13, 2016 was a very
sad day in America. It lost its greatest champion of interpreting the
Constitution as it was understood at the time of its adoption, Supreme Court
Justice Antonin Scalia who died at the age of 79. In today’s timeframe a
relatively young man but the real loss is in his larger than life personality,
his outspoken defense of conservatism and the US Constitution, and his “take no
prisoners” dissents that left no one in doubt of his thoughts on the matters.
Justice Antonin Scalia was appointed to the Supreme Court by President Ronald Reagan and served this country for three decades, sadly leaving this earth at a turning point in this countries struggle to hold fast to the Founding Fathers intentions of freedom and liberty. And leaving many of us concerned over the continuation of their principles, our freedoms and the countries greatness.
Sorry it took so long for this follow up but like many who
came back from SHOT we were also stuck with the creeping crude that goes around
some of these events … LOL but its past time for my Part 2 review…
I left off with Springfield XDS series and as I said I can
no longer be a naysayer… but let’s chat about some of the other offerings that
I was able to test. There were many AR15’s
out there and some of you will think I’m pretty mean but if you’ve shot some of
the best out there it’s hard to judge 30 more variants of the same platform and
be wowed. Different rail systems, barrel lengths, suppressors, triggers, dot
systems, side chargers, stocks… not many changes. It could be that I work with a group of guys
at PDWarehouse in Chandler, AZ that build a very nice custom AR and do some
gorgeous Cerakoting too so I guess I’m a little jaded about them. So other than Daniel Defense, Barrett and Colt
I won’t be talking about AR’s this year.
