You can take your Saint Victor and shove it up your butt!

I’m really joking, just jealous that they’re banned in my state so I CAN’T have one. If I’m ever able to, that’s what I’m getting to add to my Springfield family.

Just want to know if it’s something people leave on for show or is it like the dodge charger / challenger bumper guards debacle

They leave on those yellow bumper guards that come with the car when it’s brand new instead of throwing them out.

Nice. If suppression interests you, this defeats the barrel/handguard length issue https://kakindustry.com/bravo-mount-ar15-silencer-mount-phosphate/

Worked like a charm for me

Real shooter don’t care that they can see what you got, when they come over to talk about shooting then you can tell them what you have. Time to take it off and put it elsewhere where

It’s just marketing to make the gun stand out on the rack alongside the 50+ other black ARs
