[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1321666, member: 1132"] Perhaps it's just me, but "tactical tv" has all gotten this way. Same for gun rags. Every time I see a Combat Guns & Weapons For *********s magazine cover I absolutely want to puke. In that type of environment, I guess you pretty much have to put on a polarizing performance to get your message across. Let's face it, this is how a large percentage of operator types talk. There's too much BS out there for them to waste time arguing on the internet or in a carbine class with know it all types who want to argue insignificant points. Sure the markings on the lower are irrelevant. But his mission in this video is to sell a product to the washed and unwashed masses. If he sells more of them while pissing a few internet commandos off in the process, he's probably going to enjoy it a little more. I tend to avoid hanging around egotistical types for kicks, but I'd probably take a class from him. If you think the atmosphere on barfcom is rough, try spending some time over on m4carbine.net. They have an amassed level of knowledge on running the AR platform at 105% that barfcom couldn't touch. But dear God, the level of narcissistic, egotistical, self-congratulatory BS they rain down on everyone else is enough to piss anyone off. Ask the wrong question over there and you'll feel like you just endured the Spanish Inquisition! If you have thick enough skin to endure, you'll wind up with gear and tactics that work under adverse conditions. If you don't feel you need that, then don't. I happen to like stuff that works, as most who have shot with me have seen. Daniel Defense makes great gear, just as companies like BCM, Noveske, Magpul, Troy, etc. do. Most AR buyers don't even know who LAV is. I wouldn't put too much emphasis on him being "douchey" in a product ad designed to appeal to a narrow segment of the AR buying public. [/QUOTE]
