“Under no pretext"

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.

To be charitable, 2 aces and 2 8s from the black cards are "the dead man's hand" supposedly what Wild Bill Hickok was holding when that guy domed him.
