Yep, you nailed it. I must admire your an example of elegance and class by how politely you took three separate posts to take personal swings at me and about my Mother.. total crap.
I stand by all I have said, but particularly - " find FUBAR crap all the time costing many times the $ perceived as saved, when training those that thought they had a value." and
"Get what ever the fuck you want, just know your shit when posting. Nobody said you can't buy what you want.... the pushback was the action of promoting crapy stuff, like it truly was a money saving tip.. It is and was not" nothing to do with what is legal.
For wiw the post count and join date are wrong, but there are posts, threads and enough info by me to know... However, you are the first person to personally go after me or my facts (true), so I am honored that it was by someone with such apparent high moral standards - LOL on this one.
edited to try to fix the quotes -
the personal attacks were started by you. all i did was post my thoughts on what the op of this post asked and reply to others who claimed that "counterfeit" atlas bipods are apparently equivalent to stabbing someone in the back.
you say that buying a copy atlas results in a fubar product that ends up costing more to fix than the original. that is laughable. i have seen people run the copies just as hard as the original after adding maybe $10 into them and never having an issue. and yes, i am talking about people using bipods on barricades improperly. so how on earth does $50 even come close to $300? i could buy 6 of them over 6 years and come out even. i've seen many atlas bipods break well inside of that time frame.
you also said i couldn't afford it so i bought a knockoff. that's a huge assumption seeing how i never said anything along those lines. i don't have any form of atlas whether original or copy. i may not be wealthy, and i do strive for value in anything i spend money on. thank you for thinking less of me because of that.
some of the best shooters i know, both from military experience and the elite of competition use harris bipods and don't have to shove anything down anyone's throats about elitism. they know what works and what doesn't. they know you don't have to spend 3x more on a bipod to break a world record or save a squad in the desert. often i see people on this forum who focus more on gear and how many competitions they've paid for rather than skill, kindness, or general good interest in helping people. the guys who are really good don't bother shoving stuff down people's throats, or getting caught up in a gear war. they don't tout themselves as anything special. often you won't even guess they're good at what they do until you see them. they don't have to talk about it, brag about it, or refer to anyone in anyway less than others.
i can see that this is futile. you are who you are, i don't want to change you. i am just pointing out the reason i have been replying. so you can see how someone else views you. perhaps the insight might spark some thought.
