Not standing up for Stick, he can do that very well for himself. And while typically humorous and entertaining, I'm not condoning his behavior and methods either..... I'm simply here to put forth an observation and question your (and a couple others) train of thought.

How is Stick hurting Burns business exactly? And the implication that Rick may or should hit him with the ban stick for lying, and again, hurting GreyBull sales? Simply by him expressing his adamant dislike for Burns product(s)?

Every single day there's no shortage of posts expressing a dislike for any number of products. Endless debates and bashing in the Optics sub-Forum alone on Leupolds, Bushnell, Tasco, Simmons, etc.

Hell, start a thread on Kimber, MPI, Savage, Tikka.... and sit back and enjoy the show.

Honestly, I don't discern a difference gentlemen....
