Occupy Port of L.A. - MF Research Group Reveals Small Businesses Being Crushed by US Customs
IRWINDALE, Calif., Nov. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Though we live in a country where American citizens are entitled to
unalienable civil privileges such as the right to life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness, but we can't have it all. The laws and policies
we live by are strictly regulated by the government. Recently, certain
agencies have overstepped boundaries and abused power in the facade of
protecting the country. MF Research and Publications has researched the
matter of recent import seizures by the CBP and DOC and reveals abuse
and negligence.
The government has been making it difficult for small businesses in the
airsoft sporting goods industry to operate. Airsoft is a recreational
sport in which plastic pellets (airsoft BBs) are shot out of realistic,
non-lethal shooting replicas of actual firearms. Presently, the
Department of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has been seizing
shipments of airsoft guns from businesses such as AirSplat, Tac City and
many others for the reason that they are incompliant with our country's
policies.
According to the policy, imported airsoft guns must have a blaze orange
tip affixed to the barrel of the gun to clarify it is not a real
firearm. Though all shipments have been compliant with the policy, the
CBP would find ways to disprove it. They have claimed that the tips of
the airsoft guns were painted on, though all orange tips are made with
solid orange plastic. They also claimed that the tips were not
permanently affixed to the airsoft guns. Their examination was by way of
using power tools, which resulted in merchandise being broken into
pieces.
An estimated $250 million in pending seizures has been pilfered from
small businesses this year. It can take as long as 18 to 36 months to
sort out the issue due to delayed responses from the CBP. It costs an
estimated $150,000 in fees to retrieve a shipment of merchandise worth
only $100,000. $50,000 is lost. No one is held accountable for the lost
funds nor have any repercussions been established. As of November 2011,
we've gotten word that the CBP is further preparing to seize more
airsoft shipments in the near future.
We can see palpable evidence demonstrating ways the government has
abused their power to bully unwary targets. While the CBP plays the role
of defender, small businesses in the airsoft industry - and all import
businesses - are suffering.

You Know your too old for airsoft when......
I saw a post about this on the Team AARP forum,

2. YKYTOFA when your at the drug store looking for Depends in Muilti Cam for your next game.
3. YKYTOFA when you have given up on explaining that it's
"Mil-sim"or "Tactical training"
and just tell you wife when your leaving the house,
" I am going to play war with the other kids"
4.YKYTOFA when you step out from behind cover to take a hit just so you can head to respawn and get a chance to sit down.
5. YKYTOFA when you take the sniper role, so you can nap a few times in the afternoon.
6. YKYTOFA when your guns have had more birthdays then your teammates.
7. YKYTOFA when you have custom mollie pouches built to hold your toilet paper and prep H.
8. YKYTOFA when the local field has a special waiver for you, that requires you to have your own EMT unit on standby.
9. YKYTOFA when you watch those hoverround commercials and wonder how would that look in Woodland camo
10. YKYTOFA when your teammates bring energy drinks and powerbars,
while you carry Ensure and Fiber 1
11. YKYTOFA when you build a custom handle on your stock so your rifle can double as a cane.

SHOT Show is coming soon, this year will be BIG
I have to ask, do you live under a rock?
It's only the hugest, more big than BIG,
collection of guns and tactical crap under one roof than you can ever imagine.
(with some hunting stuff thrown in)
Again this year, the great people at FoxFury Lighting Solutions
have caved in and will allow me to work in the booth.
( I am the LE/Mil Sales manager for FoxFury)
This will be my 26th SHOT Show and it means a trip back to Las Vegas for a third year in a row.
I know it is a hardship, you see what I have to go through just to get copy for this blog!
My interview from last year, done by the great Thumpy
(Deleted from youtube)
Now, this is not the big news, the big news is that due to the largesse of FoxFury,
The actors and crew from Beat Down Boogie will be accompanying me to the show!
Now I am sure most of you know who I am talking about,
but if your that guy I mentioned before that lives under a rock, here's some of their work
(deleted from youtube)
I will be using the guys as my production crew for media day,
that is the day before SHOT where media people get to go out to the range and shoot all the new guns,
so I guess you can expect some videos of some cool stuff
Expect some incredible videos to come from our days in the LV sun,
it's also Ghosts and Snakes 1st ever trip to Vegas, so LV needs to watch out too.
A huge thanks goes out to FoxFury lighting for sponsoring the BDB journey.
The guys will be in and out of the booth on Tuesday and Wednesday so stop in and meet them.
We have a few other Big things planned for SHOT,
so stay tuned to this blog and my company blog at
and follow us on that facebook thing
Shot show runs from January 16th thru the 20th 2012 in Las Vegas Nevada.
It is a industry only show with over 50,000 attendees from all over the world and over 1600 vendors.

An old man rages against ignorance ( Airsoft Revolvers)
Y'all know by now, I am old.
I started out yesterday and checked on that newfangled "Facebook" thingy
to see what peoples dogs were up to and if I got "poked" over night or not.
I found this
(Video of some douche wrist twisting in a revo cyl)
Deleted from YouTube
Now, anyone who has seen my pathetic attempts at video know,
I do crappy ones, but when I watched this one, I went BALLISTIC.
It was not due to the fact that I guess they didn't have a script,
that must have been the reason that the same adjectives were used over and over.
It was not even due to the fact that just because it has "Dan Wesson"
trademarks on the barrel it looks nothing like a Dan Wesson.
It was not even the fact that they deleted my well thought out comment
on their facebook page
on their facebook page
It was because of the gun handling skills of the presenter.
In talking with a younger colleague on the landline later that evening
( one who is well versed in Real steel tactical weapons),
I came to realize that it is an age thing, not a stupidity thing.
So, because I seem to buy every Tanaka revolver that comes up for sale,
if you have the time,
here is a school on what not to do on your airsoft revolver.
It really is just one thing you need to remember
DON'T LEARN YOUR GUN HANDLING SKILLS FROM
MOVIES OR TV SHOWS.
I would love to have the time to chop up bad gun handling clips from tv and movies
into a quick youtube vid
into a quick youtube vid
( if I knew how)
but for this installment here is the one that really gets under my skin.
The spinning and wrist flip to close the cylinder into the frame.
Now I know it looks cool, just like the "HK" slap,
but every time you flip out the cylinder or flip it back in
you are putting severe strain on this part
you are putting severe strain on this part
That "L" shaped piece is called the crane,
although it looks like a stout piece of steel,
although it looks like a stout piece of steel,
it is not designed to take the stresses put on it by the "flip"
It will go out of alignment,
in an airsoft gun, this just means that your 130-300.00 gun is now worthless,
but if you do it with a real steel one,
it means that your bullet could impact the side of the forcing cone
causing a "Catastrophic failure" (That means BOOM)
it means that your bullet could impact the side of the forcing cone
causing a "Catastrophic failure" (That means BOOM)
Also, when you spin the cyl and flip it closed,
you could do damage to the ratchet and hand
you could do damage to the ratchet and hand
(other parts that no one sells for airsoft!)
To properly close the cyl, cup it gently in your non support hand
and ease it into the frame,
That's it, do it slower, just like that.
( wow, where did that come from, I think I like my revolvers a little too much!)

( wow, where did that come from, I think I like my revolvers a little too much!)
I worked for a little company called Smith & Wesson for a few years,
they made a revolver or two and I sold a few.
I guess this is why I get so upset when I see this done
"on the street"
"on the street"
I know a lot of people today have never fired a revolver, real or airsoft,
so after taking my blood pressure meds and my heart pills,
I have calmed a little and now understand.
I have calmed a little and now understand.
Your not doing it just to piss me off,
you just did not know that it could do damage.
you just did not know that it could do damage.
Now you do
If you would like more information on this topic,
or any others I have covered

READ A DAMN BOOK,
OR GET OUT THE ENCYCLOPEDIA
AND
STAY THE HELL OFF MY LAWN,
damn kids
where's my glasses?

The Truth about Airsoft!
I have my helmet and eye pro, now if I could just mount a mini to this thing!
Being old, allows me a certain latitude, like passing on homilies to the young whippersnappers.
So this is the start of my "TRUTH" post, I will update as my brain kicks in and out.
TRUTH Number 1
If you want an airsoft gun to work, don't Fu&$ing upgrade it.
Really, I almost learned this years ago, when fast cars and mud trucks were what took all my
"disposable" income.
Think about it,
(I didn't) when you change a cam or a carburetor (look up what this was) you get more horsepower,
but more horses do no good unless they get to the back wheels,
and if the back wheels just spin, then it is still all wasted.
Now I am far from a Mechbox tech, but I do know logic, logic tells us that if change one thing, you are going to have to change a lot of things if you want it right.
TRUTH Number 2
FPS IS NOT EVERYTHING.
I have seen it time and time again,
someone buys a new airsoft gun and the 1st thing they ask is what spring they should change too.
Lets get this straight, it is not about FPS, it is about hitting your target.
I have seen and own many guns that put out a paltry 245-350 fps, but can nail a 5 gal bucket at 225ft.
I have also seen too many guns that are shooting at the ragged edge of field legal and beyond,
that couldn't hit the side of a barn at 100 ft.
To paraphrase Puff Daddy "It's all about the accuracy, Baby"
TRUTH Number 3
Buy the best gun you can afford
Then save your money,
don't jump in to upgrades,
then buy another gun exactly like your first one.
Hear me out.
Most of us have to drive a good piece to a game, so you have travel cost.
Then it's a whole day that you could be, making overtime,spending with loved one's, catching up on chores or Honey dew's or like me, sleeping, so you want to make the most of your field time.
It more than sucks when you gun goes down 15 min's into the game.
If you have a same same backup gun, then all you have to do is go to you car and swap,
keeping your rig the same means it's a 5 min swap, not one that will lose you an hour of play.
TRUTH Number 4
It's airsoft.
That is my fallback phrase whenever I start to hear a tale of woe.
It's airsoft, your guns gonna break.
It will, it happens in all the sports that rely on anything mechanical.
I have been to an IDPA (real steel) match where my roommate who came straight from work,
shot his duty pistol.
On the 1st stage his rear sight flew off his P226 to parts unknown.
He, being a tactical ted, drew his back up Glock 26 from a ankle holster and tried to finish the stage,
three rounds in the gun reversed a spent case and jammed it back into the barrel.
Two guns , that he trusted his life to and took care of, failed within 3 mins of each other.
I spent untold hours, days, weeks on my baby 1973 corvette.
It's first rally started great, 15 mins in it began to rain, I turned on my windshield wipers and they proceed to do a very inept imitation of the movie Captain Blood, battling each other to death across my windscreen.
I stopped and had to tear off the passenger side wiper by hand, but got right back into the rally, 20 mins later the bolts holding my alternator both sheared at the same time and my fan belt pulled that 10 lb chunk of metal into the fan, which shot it though the radiator and out the front of my car.
I don't have to add that due to the wiper incident, I was in last place, with no one behind me, oh, and this was before cell phones also!
Shit happens,
Have a backup, or two, or ten like me ( ok, do not be like me, but you see where I am going, right?)
One is none, two is one and three is better, I must be betterest of them all
Truth Number 5
If you do upgrade your gun, Buy the very best parts you can afford.
Do it right the first time, I know you heard this little statement from everyone in your life since you were 7, there is a reason, it's true.
It's also true that if you crack your gearbox to upgrade, you will be inside it again soon.
There are no "common specs" in airsoft.
Every manufacture has their own recipe. They might be off by just a hair, but that .0001 will put things out of line sooner than later.
That is why you have a stock backup in the backseat. (Truth 3)
TRUTH Number 6
Always shoot your gun before you enter the field
I have ran enough chronograph stations to know the following is a fact.
On any given game day, at least 10% of the guns brought up to chrono will not shoot.
Get to the game field early ( like that is gonna happen), ask where you can test fire and put some rds downrange. While your at it, make sure you are hitting somewhere close to where your aiming also.
You would not believe how many people have never fired their gun except for in the back yard at 25 ft.
I truly believe that this would cut the "call your damn hits" shouting in half
TRUTH Number 7
You do not know everything.
I thought I did, I started working in a gun shop when I was 12 or so,
sweeping up and stacking boxes of clay targets in exchange for 12 gauge hulls to reload.
I ate, breathed and dreamed about guns.
I read every book in the local library, the downtown library and
spent every extra dime I had at the book store and newsstand.
By 1982 I had amassed ( and read) a collection of every issue of every gun magazine printed in the US
up to the current ones, this was before the internet
( if you gave me a month and year,
I could tell you from memory what was on the cover of guns and ammo for that month).
I had fixated on Smith and Wesson ( a S&W rep used to come to the store, he always wore the safari clothes like the ones in the old browning catalogs, crisply pressed.
I acquired a huge man crush and set a goal of one day being a "REP"),
I would call S&W, write letters, and was a general pain in the ass to anyone that might know something
I wanted to know. If you had cut me I would have bled S&W blue.
Years went on, I worked in gun shops and even ran one, some time in the early 80's
I was at a IPSC world shoot and overheard a guy talking about a factory J frame 357 mag.
I knew there was no such animal, and I told him so
" You might have a Straham custom, but S&W NEVER made a J frame 357"
He was polite, nodded and walked away.
At the end of the day I was heading to my car to dump my gear when I heard someone whistle.
I looked over and the "Liar" was at the trunk of his car, he motioned me over.
I walked over for him to tell me that he was sorry,
but he pointed at the inside of his trunk.
There on a nice gun rug was a factory S&W 357 magnum 5 shot J frame.
The gentleman had been a high muckity muck with the FBI and the S&W he had was boasting a X serial number prefix (X=Experimental), but he was right and I was a huge fool.
Don't get me wrong, there are liars, I can not even begin to count the number of people that told me they had "a Glock7, you know the ceramic one, my brother in law whose is a SEAL gave it to me"
after Die Hard 2 came out.
Bottom line to this long, rambling, now I know I am an old man story,
you don't know everything.
Learn from everyone, I have even learned stuff from kids at the field.
I know everything about one thing, that is I don't know everything.
(unless we have been drinking, then all bets are off)
TRUTH Number 8
You don't learn crap on days everything goes right.
Think about it, have you ever had one of those days when your bb's reached out just a little farther,
you aim was just a little better, your gun had no hiccups and the temperature was just right to play?
What did you learn that day?
Absolutely nothing.
What about the day your gun went down three times? Some guy in the parking lot helped with fixing it?
You ran into that situation on the field where those guys were dug in and held you off for an hour in the damn heat until someone came up with a plan to route them?
Now, which day was better?
I say the shitty one.
You learned something, even if it was a small thing.
If you don't keep learning, you stagnate, if you do that, you might as well be dead.
I feel sorry for people whose life is perfect, I have a few friends like that,
they are really the saddest (and most boring) people I know.
It's airsoft.
If you do upgrade your gun, Buy the very best parts you can afford.
Do it right the first time, I know you heard this little statement from everyone in your life since you were 7, there is a reason, it's true.

Winchester ( it looks more like a Marlin) Airsoft
I am finishing up my Airsoft Cowboy set and will have reviews and pic's up this week.
I manged to pick up a very old, shell ejecting lever gun that looks to be based off the Marlin 1894, two Tanaka Colt single actions, a Marusin Single action Army along with some double barreled shotgun pistols and a full size double barrel shotgun, Plus some derringers.
I have been trying to put together some good leather gear for a photo shoot, but that is going slow.
I will do my best to get it done this week, seems like life has been getting in the way of my Blogging!
