A friend here in WA state is having a real downturn at his gunstore.
He blames the economic uncertainty along with new gun laws and the threat of more.
I posted in the scorpion picture thread and then started noticing how flat that whole scorpion forum has become.
I have a few guns plus my scorpion that will be affected by the brace BS should it happen.
I’m not sure what I’ll do at that point.

No one seems to want the hassle of an SBR. No one wants a giant pistol. OR it could be the economy.

I've added 5 stamps in the last 2 years. It's not a hassle at all. Sent one off in April and was approved in 10 days. Sent my last one off in June and it took 25 days.

My Scorpion EVO 3 S2 was my favorite PCC till I got bit by the HK bug in April and June.

Love the 3 lug adapter so much I bought a 3 lug mount for my 9mm suppressor, and a barrel mount for my CZ.



My new favorite PCC's.

Relax, have a drink, sit back and watch the flurry of lawsuits.  Cross your fingers folks.

The brace law killed the scorpion pistol and micro.  Good thing there's the carbine which sales should skyrocket.  Oh wait they discontinued it.   ???

But it is a hassle.. I don't care to buy a gun and then have to pay $200 on top of the price. Yeah I know it's free now...

Shoot Straight (Florida chain, but online presence) purchased a lot of the original models and magazines.  I had everything I needed for my SBR, but I will tell you the switch kept my agency from buying them for SBR's.
