17 YO uses a $500 AR w/a $99 red dot to make the first 2 CONUS communist kills, while our $3000 AR's are in our vault.

Kind of slap stick I know, but first rule is a big thought, & how important was his sling. Wonderful weapon retention, in the melee, I don't know if The KK lost his grip or not. But his sling kept his weapon close... Some saying his sling, among other things, saved his life.

Just pondering on lessons learned about the action of it all. The court chit will droll for a long time.

Yes, good slings are important.

Did he keep his hand on the grip, I couldn't tell. Weapon retention & target acquisition extraordinaire.

I wondered if a hi cap handgun would be better in this scenario. But weapon retention was huge in this situation. Could a handgun still have been there when you needed it?

A lot of lessons offered here that I hope I never have to learn first hand.

I'd say his AR was just about perfect. Two dead commies and the third is ruined for life.

"Lefty" also lost part of his biceps tattoo.....bummer. He was also a felon with a gun. I wonder when he'll be charged? They must be concentrating on crucifying the kid who was just defending himself.

Not trying to be a smartass, but the application is huge IMO, & the brand is irrelevant. A strand of para cord would have done, but the fact that the rifle never left his body, & the rifle was presentable time after time saved his life.

Lessons of just sling application is big here.

Or not??? Tell me if I'm wrong, I'm listening.

To be fair my ARs are not in any "vault" and I have posted many picts over the years and none show an AR sans well designed sling.

Slings and lights matter.

I have daughters, no sons. But, my best friend of 35 years has a son and I taught him early on how to shoot. He was top shooter out of 320 when he joined the Navy.
At 12 he was moving and shooting bowling pins with an AR.

The kid in knosha has had trigger time. He wasn't just luck a few times.
He didn't need to be arrested, he needed to be flown to Parris Is.land

I'm still in awe of the KK's weapon retention, control & alertness. Not just youth. I served as a range officer several times in USPSA competition, & you could see a persons past experience, natural ability or struggle right off the bat, and this kid just seems to be in the groove. The ice man?

Call of Duty has been mentioned several times possibly as some of his experience, a video game? Guess you gotta buy an X box thingy or some apparatus to play it on? Might need one. Walmart?

Probably never. Communists in the courts too busy trying to ruin The Kid's and other patriots' and conservatives' lives.


Guillotines needed.


Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.
