I own Four PSA weapons. Three AK’s and an M4.
All have been literally perfect. As nice as a manufacturer. 100% perfect reliability and even cosmetically. I could not give them high enough praise. |

I hadn’t ZERO need or want for another AR lower, but if PSA makes an Israel/ IDF version, I’m buying!!
It will go nicely with my Crusader. |

Btw, does anyone know if PSA uses thread lock on their uppers when installing the birdcage flash hider..?
thanks |

https://www.worldtrademarkreview.com/global-guide/the-wtr-yearbook/2021/article/israel Scope of protection The following marks are not eligible for registration: -flags and emblems of the state, its institutions, foreign states or international organizations, and any mark resembling any of these; I don't know if that means individuals can't trademark anything with those emblems, likely, or those aren't protected. I also can't find anything about the gov't official policy or reproducing emblems of the state. The only references on Israeli websites I can find refer to sending/seizing counterfeit goods with Israeli logos overseas and it's application to the US. The DOD specifically says you can't but that's only for the US military. |

Anyone looking for an original Christmas-15 "Christmas Story Leg Lamp" lower from 2018 in this thread? Never got around to building it out and my state no longer permits me to own nice things so it can't be built now. Can post in the EE but figured I'd ask the fans of this long running thread first since someone that wanted one long ago and maybe missed out in the limited runs, here's a chance to get yourself a Christmas present before the holiday.
Attached File ETA: First dibs currently called but he must confirm shipment is good with his ffl. Thanks to the crew. |

Would that avoid submitting a new variance request? Do updated graphics require a variance request or just changes to ATF required engraving? |

Just an idea I'd like to throw out there but here's the contact for Israel's Trademark office. I'd be happy to fire off an email asking about using the IDF logo on a tribute lower. No idea if they'd go for it but I'd be happy to pay an extra $20 per lower to help fundraise for some supportive cause if PSA would get onboard. Hopefully that might help grease the skids of getting a yes. I probably wouldn't have time till sometime next week but what could it hurt?

Any chance we could get another Gadsden flag inspired lower but on a AR10 platform. I’ve built my Baby Snek in 9mm and my No Step On Snek in 5.56. I think it would be cool for all of us that have both to have added to our collection a large caliber Snek.

As stated, with all the things going on in the Middle East right now, it would be a good time to bring back the Israeli lower, or an IDF lower. I'd be in for two.

I think I have 1, possibly 2 of the original Israeli flag lowers from a few years ago I still haven't built up.

I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me and say "You're next". They stopped that when I started doing it to them at funerals.

I'd probably be in for one of either, although the first example might better be Israeli 15-2. It took me a minute or two of wondering what happened on February 15th before realizing what I was seeing. Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee.
