    Well, that all sounds excessively complicated. :(

    I checked it out and unfortunately it is. I think it's laughable that veterans and law enforcement are considered experts on fields that I know for a fact 99.9% of them have no expertise in. Meanwhile I'm an engineer for one of the 5 largest tech companies in the world and they won't give me an expertise in electronics and computers. I can't recommend them.

    Had/Sold one of these last year, great glass/features...

    I hadn't and am an NRA member, but ExpertVoice requires you to provide actual endorsements of being an instructor or whatever else is on the list. Just being an NRA member is not enough once you start attempting to affiliate to particular industry segment.
    Couple options:

    If you're an NRA Lifetime Member, you can call customer service and get a Group Code for the NRA Patriot Life Member group.

    You can apply to join the "Shooting Sports Experts" group, but will need to provide something to back that up...

    If neither of those work, send me a PM and I can help with a custom invite...

    I can help with a custom invite...

    Q: can you send a custom invite to someone that qualifies for a different group/team and have it actually work? If so, I’ll send customs out, but since I belong to one of the veteran team/groups, I don’t know that it’ll work for the NRA stuff.

    I haven't tried it yet, but I think it lets you invite people (within reason, sure if excessive they'd take issue) to share your affiliation-based discounts, and they can use/choose the best one just like you can (some vendors have different discounts based on group affiliation).

    I've got multiple groups, so my guess would be any invites I sent would be able to leverage any/all of them...(that said, haven't confirmed it works that way yet)

    Larue Tactical has added a straight bow trigger to their $87 MBT trigger line.

    These are great triggers for the price and I really like straight triggers.

    My wife has become a fan of their Dillo dust too.

    Guess it's time to place another order.

    Keep in mind they are shipped out as they are made so it takes weeks to fill orders for them.

    Don't forget their $140 tool-less scope mounts too.

    that price is for #7 the buckshot is 160ish


    Good call. I ended up buying some buckshot since it is cheaper than the aguila equivalent

    12.99 for a box of 20
    vs Aguila which is typically 17.99 atleast locally to me

    I am hoping it runs the same as the aguila
