Prince50 on GunBroker is AWESOME

[GunOwner]

Like me, he appears to be extremely annoyed at folks who refuse to sell legal guns to Californians. Unlike me, he has thought of a great way to make a statement about it. Here is what he has in his auction listings:

"If you sell firearms, and refuse to sell legal firearms to the citizens of California, do not bid on my auctions. I do my homework,and if you will not support me and other law abiding citizens of California, I refuse to sell to you. Together we stand, divided we fall."

I could not have said it better myself. Well done Prince50, I don't know who you are but I hope to shake your hand someday.

I for one will always shop his auctions and buy from him whenever possible. When I sell on GunBroker I will ALWAYS follow the same code of conduct. FWIW

Proud to own one of his products as the legal linchpin on my AR, then.

Glad to see someone with a pair on GB, I was going to close my account, can't help but notice that most of the chickins are from the south or AZ

[wilit]

Right on. I found a new line to put in my Gunbroker auctions.

Mr Prince is one of the good guys

'Divided We Fall' indeed. And we shouldn't be so damned divided either!

Well played.

He singlehandedly INVENTED the BULLET BUTTON

I seem to recall that this was a community effort:

http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/showthread.php?t=45321

http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/showthread.php?t=45322

Gene made a detailed post about the concept and legal explanation with input from adamsreeftank, dbol and others early on(sorry if I missed anyone else, as I don't have time to re-read through those 2 threads right now).

The public unveiling of the "bullet-button" concept was Gene's New Year's Day 2007 surprise that he was hinting at in late '06.

[soopafly]

Also, the seedling's for the "bullet-button" idea sprouted from these threads with input from the CGN community beginning in early '06:

Thank you for the Bullet Button. It is a great invention for California.

What's funny is I had made this suggestion on another thread and basically got called an idiot by most. Welcome to the club!

[Prince50]

GunOwner, and the rest of the posters.

Thanks for the positive post guys. A very astute friend of mine suggested I add that statement to take a stand against the anti Californians. It hits home more than I thought it would, because I get at least 2 emails a week from out-of staters that complain to me.

I recently got an email from a seller who was looking at one of my fine Luger pistols, and apparently was upset by his inability to bid on the pistol. Usually when I respond back they drop the issue, but this guy was tough.



I am listing our diatribe and have removed his name.

Hello. Might you expect us all to register with California? Your "United we stand" message should be to all Californians where it will do the most good. Likely a worthless effort as most are of liberal or controlled thought. Aggregate refusal to sell to CA sends the most powerful message to all levels and paths. Regards,

WRONG!

Gun owners are outnumbered by entitlement hungry liberals who vote to ensure their welfare benefits and unemployment benefits. (even if they own guns).

Since a democracy exists based on voting percentages, we are screwed. United we stand is 100% correct, and applies to Gun owning non entitlement Californians as well as all other pro gun voters nation wide.

If you think gun owners are not fighting for our rights in California you are wrong again!

If you refuse to send me legal firearms, you are giving the Democrats EXACTLY what they want! That in itself should provide enough anger to make you change your stance.

Instead of arguing with me about a PRO-GUN issue, spend your efforts protecting your state, because the tide is flowing EAST!

Forgive me...how will our CA registration compliance help you?. How vigilant are CA gun owners? 9 out of 10 will not even join the NRA. Statistically, 40% don't even vote.

Americans, when it comes to defending their freedom, are fat, lazy, and stupid...did I leave anything out? Woe be to our children.

I find it interesting to note that the most liberal, gun hating states tend to have the most manufacturers...CA, MA, CT, etc., go figure.

Not that all this bantering matters, The days of gun ownership in America are numbered.

A totalitarian One World Order is coming without doubt or question. The UN has declared that human beings DO NOT have the right to self defense.

Your response is invited,

"The days of gun ownership in America are numbered." YOUR QUOTE!

If this is your level of fortitude, then your assistance is of no use to law abiding gun owners anywhere in the world, let alone the state of California. Seeing those words come from your keyboard, it appears that you are the lazy and APATHETIC one here.

As the proverbial saying goes, "Do not let the doorknob hit you where the good Lord split you".

Please do not waste any more of my time with your lazy, apathetic, defeatist attitude. Just think how happy you will be to scream "I WAS RIGHT" if we lose our second amendment rights!

I will not be there to congratulate you, as I'll be busy fighting for mine.

Best regards

Darin

As to the Bullet-Button, without the great legal minds on this forum, I would have never had the resolve to design, or market the product. It is also thanks to Gene that the Bullet Button no longer uses an oval center nut! He convinced me to change to the much better round design. (the oval nut would allow the mag catch to protrude out the left side, and be stuck in the "open" position, creating an AW in certain instances.)

Calguns is a wonderful forum. and any who are not lifetime members should join right away. This Year is going to be pivotal for our rights.

Best Regards,

Darin

Nah, some guy named Sam invented it three years before Prince50 did.

[rbetts]

Sam?? Puhlease!! Darin is my hero!!

Hey Darin,

Need an easy drop in kit to configure a single shot xdm, Gen 4 glock, and all things Kimber. Can you get on that for us??
