Frequently Asked Questions

What happened to the Ruger Mk3 pistols?

Ruger has officially discontinued the production of all Mk3 pistols. The company has transitioned to focusing on the Mk4 model, which is currently the only variant listed on their website. Despite this, existing Mk3 models are expected to remain available in the market for some time.

What is the BRDC AR9 BCG and what are its features?

The BRDC AR9 BCG (Bolt Carrier Group) is a high-quality, single-piece component designed for AR9 platforms. It features an integrated key and a very slick coating that promotes smooth operation. It is compatible with AR9 builds that accept both Glock and Colt magazines.

Is the Buck's Ammo Ram a worthwhile purchase?

The Buck's Ammo Ram is a CNC-machined tool for loading AR15 magazines, usable with stripper clips or loose rounds. However, at $79.95, the speaker questions its value, suggesting that for most users, the price outweighs the convenience compared to other loading methods.

How can I get my significant other more involved in the 2A lifestyle?

The best approach is to share what you find interesting about firearms and shooting. Take them to the range, even for a simple .22LR session. Doing activities together related to the Second Amendment can strengthen your bond and potentially increase their interest.
