Default I'm Mark LaRue and this is my 1st Calguns.net post.






From here on out, we will be sending $1,000.00 per month / $12.000.00 annually, until the cows come home. This $12,000 check covers all of 2009. We know every organization has to have phones, water, electricity ... we hope this will help cover a small portion of those monthly costs.

"The check's in the mail."

ETA - I posted this in Centerfire Rifles, 'cause that's what we do.

see... now it's only a matter of time before we get the larue lowers... either the laws will topple or ml will get comfy enough to start sending them by the truck load at a profitable price.

I held my tongue because I figured that Mark LaRue was on our side, but damn. Either he realized that we are a potential market to make a large profit or he just felt like it was the right thing to do. That was extremely kind, I am impressed.

Wow thanks Mark. I apologize for every thing i said about you. I was very quick to judge you and i made a lot of assumptions. You put your money where your mouth is and your actions show that you are willing to stand by Californians in their fight against our oppressive laws

Is that mean your lower coming this way soon? Or you want us to shut up on the lower?
Whatever you decided, thanks for your support.

Wow, good work!
It seemed like a few people were giving him way too much crap for asking a few questions about the laws. Now it seems like he's really top notch. That'll get a few customers!

Hmmm.. I post this poster I made YESTERDAY....and now LaRue Tactical donates $12,000? Coincidence?



Awesome to see you supporting us Mark. We're doing our best to kick the tar out of the enemies of the 2nd Amendment and as you can see...we're winning!

Good on you, thank you, for helping us in our cause to right our gun laws. Hopefully, we will be able to kick a good portion of those who have caused the damage to our States gun laws, and its reputation, out of office.

I don't think many here will complain even if your post was in the wrong place (not that it is).

Your action is what counts and that is in the right place.

Wow.

I've been following both threads and keeping my mouth shut, but this calls for a call out of "pure awesome."

Thank you very much Mark.
I've ordered from you before, and plan on ordering in the future.

Thanks again!

Brian

That was very generous of you and will be a huge help to the foundation which helps all California gun owners.

Thank you.

Welcome to the fight.

Now if someone will tell me where to buy a LaRue lower. I'll help him get some of that back.

Wow, thanks a lot! I'm sure this money will go a long way in the fight for our 2A rights. But just out of curiosity, what made you change your mind about California?

Bought an item from LaRue last month (first time purchase) and was thrilled with it.

Methinks LaRue will be getting a lot of my black rifle goodie business...
