You might remember my ambidextrous bullpup design and multi-caliber AR15 magazine (Unimag), first revealed here on AR15.com in 2012. Back then, I received a warm welcome from the ARFCOM community. At the time, I wanted to return to the US from Germany and, thanks in part to your help, I succeeded. Unfortunately, neither my employer nor I could anticipate the expansion of scope of ITAR. At time that the production development was finished, I could no longer own a part of the company, nor legally work for it as an employee.
While TV talking heads claim that temporary foreign workers on H-1B visas take American jobs, my inventions has generated at least two new jobs for American workers, likely increasing to five shortly. Due to the overreach of ITAR, the inventor can no longer work in anything related to defense or firearms industry. I value myself in-line with American Value and I position law and order above personal feelings. I uphold US Constitution as my personal guide and would like to defend it if called upon. I'd like to stay and contribute to make United States a better, stronger country.
So here I am again, looking for a job that can sponsor H-1B and my Eb-2 green card application to pursue the American Dream. I want to the ARFCOM community to help start a new endeavor, preferably a non-ITAR related mechanical engineering business. I still have great passion and many new product ideas and designs for the firearm industry, they just have to wait for the change in my immigration status.
I am applying for Green Card through EB-1A route as well. It is the expedited route of to permanent residency requiring special credentials, which I possess. However, there is a requirement there that the authority needs to know if I am “famous” or “important” to the United States. I originally planned to reveal another firearm design, like I did with the ambidextrous bullpup, to help the fame. However, for the past four years in the US, I have dedicated all my professional life to the Unimag project to bring it from prototype into production, and to solve numerous problem that were encountered. The time constraints are now against me: I wish to stay in America, and I must work to feed a growing family. While the new design, Longziz #3, is already on the drawing board, it's not ready for prime time – but I can’t wait any longer.
By revealing my personal story, I hope to gain a job that would lead towards the American Dream. I also hope that you can help me tell my story to a wider audience, hopefully generating enough “fame” or “importance” to get my Green Card sooner. If you know anyone in the broadcast, print or social media that would want to publicize a legal immigrant’s struggle to pursue the American Dream, please contact me for more details. If you know a high official in this industry that willing to write me a recommendation letter to make a case to the immigration authority, please contact me as well.
In today’s politics, the topic of immigration has been hijacked by the apologists for illegal immigration. Not only they have congress and senate voice on their side, their numbers overwhelm those of our legal immigrants. Republican senator and congressman had long proposed bills that would allow STEM students to get US Green Cards easier, but that sound proposal was hijacked by Democrats on behalf of the illegals. Last time I checked, that bill went nowhere. The few Chinese Americans in Congress won't speak for our legal immigrants. If nobody speaks for me, at least I can and I am willing to speak for myself. God willing, I may speak for other people just like me also.
I am looking for a job requiring real-world problem solving skill and experience in designing products that would meet both the customers' and manufacturer’s needs. When the Unimag project experienced numerous dimensional and distortion problems caused by stamping, welding and surface treatment, I came up a combined solution to bring the stamping, heat treatment and coating supplier to work together. As the manufacturing business is starting to come back to this country from overseas, I hope my experience and skill set will be put to use by a discerning employer.
