Looking around for some gun parts, and I find what looks like a decent deal and there's two of the same thing listed on the website, but one of them has a "-s" on the sku. So I look closely between the two pics... Fucking SS "bolts" on the safety selector.

I already keep my eyes open for anything that's made in Idaho, but this company (Foxtrot Mike) didn't seem to have any overt signs until I saw this. Other manufacturers, like Strike Industries, obviously are trying to make their logo look as close to the SS as possible while doing their childish plausible deniability. They dance around the issue with the rhetoric equivalent of "I'm not touching you" while holding their finger about 3mm from your face. And if you point it out, they'll laugh and call you crazy.

This shit is so annoying, they think they're so slick.

In Range TV fucks with KE Arms, so they're probably halfway decent.

they had a falling out recently over a Wired article of all things.

u/SinistralRifleman is Russel KE Arms

in particular

I stuck with InRangeTV and Karl for years, and sacrificed friends, business connections, income and credibility to make Brutality Matches what they were and smooth the road for InRangeTV in its goals and promote 2A4ALL.

The Wired Article undermined any normalization efforts and broader acceptance we were gaining. You want venues to run these things at? Understand they’re all owned or run by religious conservatives that are at best uneasy about your presence and the only reason we had those venues to begin with is because “Russ is a good dude” from being there competing for decades and donating hundreds of thousands of dollars in merchandise to their events.

sad, but understandable since the business is his main thing. unless he flips out and starts being a huge chud it's probably still one of the better companies, but iirc it's like two employees and some temps when people were panic-buying.
