Dude did you really just make references in your post claiming those are YOUR lowers and YOU own Wyoming Arms LLC? Your clearly a part of the place but owner........

All legal records of that LLC appear to belong to another individual. Business license, FFL, Trademarks the whole works appears to be registered to Jeff Leisy as his name is the ONLY one registered as owner.

Have heard good things about the wares from friends involved with high end suppliers here but all of them mention only Leisy.


Also not sure how you can call Wyo Arms one of the big boys after 18 months of businesses. Lots of manufacturers have a shcitt ton more wins and do so routinely.


No attack, just trying to clarify my interpretation of your post


I do not believe that he did, the post was interesting and would have been more so but for his usual self-aggrandisement and total lack of people skills.


These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Jeff Leisy, Tom Buckner and I are partners in Wyoming Arms LLC. Jeff is the registered agent here in Wyoming. After all it is an LLC.

Of course you have heard "good things" from "high places". Congradulations??? Jeff is very integral to vendor relations. He is not just some dipshcit playin games. I pick my partners more carefully these days.

Wyoming Govenor Matt Mead also heard "good things" and wanted to check it out Wyoming Arms personally at the Governor's Mansion.

Jeff and I passed muster and the Govenor Ordered a carbine.

Well after Maggie Reese taking High Lady and Mike Voight finishing top 5 at the first major 3 gun of 2014 (Superstition MT Mystery 3 Gun) I reckon things are going pretty good.

Simply put we "Wyoming Arms" make the most accurate and reliable AR in existence.

Of Course getting recognized by the Senate and the House here in Wyoming is pretty cool.
Jeff and me looking a little embarrassed as they clapped.

If you say so, 'cause I sure af pphuck never claimed any gunsmithing skills, here or anywhere else. Fact remains I'm the only poster here who's name is on the wall at Range 37, SOTIC Class 4-87. Call 'em and you can "out" me. Get some mofo.


Ok. If you say so. But something you did 27 years ago doesn't qualify you to be a blowhard on all things here. I'll let you "out" yourself if you're so inclined.


I have not seen a SINGLE post my Take A Knee that looked or sounded like him being a blowhard or self appointed expert.


You haven't looked very far or very hard.

Starting off I got a small batch of uppers and lowers back from the Anodizer. Wanted to try a some Sand Matte Type III. Looked pretty good but might tweak it some in the future. Love that Wyoming Arms Logo. Most everthing we do is is Type III Black but the Matte Sand is cool and in demand.

Got the 300 Blackout barrels on the mill for fluting and things looked good. As you most likely know our 5.56 WYO barrels pretty much set the standard for "uber" accuracy/ "uber" reliabilty and I am anxious to keep the trend going forward.

Unfluted

Now it is fluted and the gas port is in.

As normal the coated BCGs continue to amaze and the light bodies are really quite the step above.

Got the coating on the barrel extension dialed in and boy does it work nice.

I do love living in a State (Wyoming) where the Governor, Matt Mead, loves talking about guns at the Mansion and can buy the best in AR type rifles.

Shoot I almost forgot, but Surefire's Maggie Reese won High Lady at the Superstition Mt Mystery 3 gun with our barrel and Mike Voight placed in the top 5 overall with the WYO LOK barrel at the same event last weekend. grin Cheers



Hmmm.....Not thinking that went the way HC expected.

Nice rifles!

It appears that the attitude of some feel that only the perfectly physically and those that never miss the vitals are the only ones that should be allowed to hunt. Freedom and liberty be damed.

No one has said anything like that. It's been more along the lines of "stuff happens, everyone know it, but when it does don't brag about it and act the hero."

I don't think that's the point at all. I think the point most are trying to make is that the braggadocio involved in the posts is rather ridiculous especially in light of the actual events of the hunt in question.

Safariman does tend to write link an advertisement, does that deserve this type of a use?

When he goes off about how only an "ubermagnum" would be capable of the feat, or how a 3/4 pickup had what would total about 17k tons of cable in the bed, or how the entire event was the equivalent of a hunt never to be equaled in the ages, then he brings it on himself. Add in the "problematic" shot placement that would negate the touted "quartering away", the reliance on others to actually kill the bear and then do the work, and then the multiplicitous posting of the same event in multiple forums - each attempting to one up the last and all building upon the flaws of the others, the self-induced misery compounds.

It would also appear that he has developed somewhat of a reputation. That never helps, but I can't speak to that (as I wasn't privy to the events or the incidents).

I do not agree with his take on armament, but you guys seem to forget that he is younger than JJ, but in such poor health that he needed the help to recover the animal and he sought the help needed. He also told the exactly as it happened and sugar coated none of it. You guys are way to self righteous.
