NBC Nightly News visits Stag Arms tonight

Tonight 07/19/07
Tonight on the NBC Nightly News, Stag Arms is visited by the nightly news crew to discuss the popularity of the AR-15. A New York Times article on June 3, 2007 raised the issue of the widespread popularity and use of the AR-15 in America. In this New York Times article, Stag Arms is highlighted as one of the world's largest manufacturers of AR-15 rifles and parts. NBC requested to visit the Stag Arms factory to see what it is like at a firearms factory that manufactures one of the most popular rifles in America. Tune in tonight to catch a must watch report on the NBC Nightly News.

Well that was lame. Kinda sorta balanced - well more balanaced than i thought it would be. Even though the reporter didn't have a clue about what she was talking about. Not really much to it.

Thumbs down Just as I feared

NBC gave Stag Arms about 10 seconds the rest was putting the fear of death into the viewing public about the EBR evil black rifles.
Lesson learned (Don't trust the Media any of them.)

The reporter got five points across very efectivly.There are a lot of them being purchased,some people dont think its a good thing,they are high capacity rapid fire,the D.C. sniper used one,they are trying to get them banned but they dont have enough votes.Not one word about using them for recreation,hunting or self defence.The little lady said you should learn to use them safely and accuratly and it was one of her great accomplishments.To me NBC got their pro-gun control message out and definitly will get more votes to ban like they want. sam.

I saw it also and thought the woman with the rifle made a good representation of firearms owners. Of course the reporter had nothing good to say. Pointing out that the black rifle had a pistol grip so it could be fired from the hip (apparently only pistol grip rifles can be!) a high capacity mag of 30 rounds, blah blah. The five second spot they gave to the anti AR-15 rifle person sounded a bite hysterical to me but of course to those like her I'm sure she sounded just fine. All in all it wasn't horrible for gun owners but it wasn't great either.

Well if you think the NBC program that ran tonight helped black rifle owners or AK&SAS owners you must have missed the showing pictures of the two black killers who QUOTE: used police and militery type rifles to kill. Then they put a picture of a black rifle with the EOTech mounted sight and stated it was the rifle used by the DC sniper. Hell thats the first time I remember ever seeing the rifle they used. Funny NBC should point that out in this program. Hmmmmm.

I hope and pray that they didn't refer to the AR as an "Assault Rifle"! This would be wrong being that we can't put it in full "auto". God, I hate the media. I didn't see it. Please inform. Thanks.

Yup, I dated a girl from Conway for a while. We were sleeping together one night and I was awoken by a weird noise. I sat up in bed and realized that she was grinding her tooth! Man, I sure do miss her. She could sure cook! Ha! Ha!

If it had been invented else where it would have been called the teeth brush.

I took a look at the Stag website, pretty nice. Prices, for full retail seem about right.

When I lived in Tennessee, a fella told me the toothbrush must have been invented in Tn. Anywhere else, it would have been named a teethbrush!
