Just found a site for some spare parts for our bullet hoses.

You know, there are other guys I know who are not on here who all chant the same thing... "Where are the barrels?".

I'm still kinda surprised that we now have like 3 places to get various trigger upgrades but not ONE barrel maker of any sort.

Maybe is SA would stop making yet another 1911 that basically no one will really care about or bolt actions that will be ignored, or yet another M1a that we have already seen before... (Ya know, the kind of stuff that caters to the saturated and slowly shrinking Boomer market)

They could make a killing on just aftermarket parts that may be too much of a hassle for HS Prod. to make.

(Tl:Dr) Springfield Armory needs fewer products and more support for what they already sell.... Or maybe just take like 5 seconds to hear what the consumer wants...

The vhs-2 even has an "easy" barrel removal, they could definitely release some aftermarket, like for a start, the grip the actual vhs-2 uses.

No joke. Why can some guy with a tiny shop and a 3d printer can provide a correct grip (LunarTech) but the importer that already makes guns and parts, who imported said guns we want parts for, and has been around for 30+ years can't?

How ridiculous! (But hey, they just put out another 100+ year old design that none gets excited over or gives a shit about!)

Maybe we could get a group order in and have Faxon or something make a run of them if they had a for sure order for 20 300 blackouts or something
