His position on the Second Amendment is unwavering. I like him and his company just based on that alone.

For T Rex Arms… Take all the positives, subtract all of the negatives and you’ll end up with enough good to justify supporting the company.
Lucas is an awkward dude who I wouldn’t hang out with but his older brothers make up for it and the company as a whole is on the right track. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Well, I mean, per its definition, it's not splitting hairs, an A class shooter should be 75% to 89.5% of what a GM should be. Compared to 99.9% of GD, they would be a high level shooter though. 75-84.9 M is 85-94.9 Then G But I see his point. Most shooters don’t even know the USPSA classification system exists. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I dont believe that's even remotely true. I wasn’t going to address that comment but I agree. I’ve shot a few A classifier scores. The 25% gap from the beginning of A to a 100% score is enormous and it gets exponentially harder to close that gap as you level up. It took me 10 months to get from zero to B. If I make A by the end of 2024, it will be sheer luck or an amount of practice that will end up in a divorce LOL |

Quote HistoryQuoted: That's because the videos of the "older" looking guy feature his brother Isaac who does more of the tech & political videos He's made a good pro-2a video about the AR last year poking fun at politicians and their bullshit, and also covers legislation regularly  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dIsy3sZI2YQuote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Despite what people may think about him, this is ultimately the truth. They have been very active politically, which puts them head and shoulders above 99.99% of the posters on this site. On a side note, it is kinda weird that Lucas can look 25 years old in one video and 45 years old in another.

This is the second amendment where the right to keep and bear arms is the necessity for a free state not gun culture. Where the people fear the government there is tyranny, but where the government fears the people there is freedom. If I'm legally prohibited from carrying frag grenades in my EDC it's a constitutional infringement, eg magazine and placarding laws currently. The Revolution started over the confiscation of undeclared and concealed artillery while we argue over which ammo is best in our pistols. |

I don't recall the story exactly so pardon me if I don't get the facts entirely right.
Anyway, about a year ago they came out their plate carrier. They advertised it as made in the USA. After they received them, they discovered that the subcontractor they hired farmed out the production to (IIRC) Mexico. Although the quality was fine, they fire-saled them at a steep discount. So, I can't speak to their religious practices. I also can't speak to if he speeds up his videos. However, I think they are pretty stand up business people. |

The original batch was made under supervision in the US. Then the contractor started shipping some of the work out to Mexico and sewing "Made in the USA" tags on it while still producing some in the US. They couldnt find a way to differentiate between which ones were actually made in the US or Mexico so they just sold the whole batch at a steep discount and were very public about what had happened. |

I own a few T-Rex products and they are damn sure 2A absolutists. His brother's video about the AR15 and how historically it relates to the 2A is a master-class IMO. I've got not problem with Lucas, he's a damn good shooter and puts out quality information. GD will find anything to bitch about, IMO a lot of 'hate' from Lucas comes from envy. Who here wouldn't love to get paid shooting guns and making videos and thus this drives a lot of complaints. Same is true of Garand, MAC or insert your gun-tuber of choice.

smart kid who's figured out how to turn his entire hobby into both a living and a tax write off. he's drawing younger kids in as he knows how to communicate in their medium, and he's getting the hooked on NODS, Fighting Gear and Guns. He's unabashedly pro gun and pro cool gear. That's nice. anyone who draws people to our side is good in my book.

By and large I don't know his views and don't have any strongly held opinions either way. Some of the things I have heard, I agree with. Others, I don't.
Their newest model holster is of good quality, and allows me to carry a full size gun concealed. It's a great value, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. |
