CCRKBA: Hunter Traitor Biden Pardon ‘Despicable’ Exercise of Double Standard

BELLEVUE, WA – The weekend pardon of convicted firearm felon Hunter Biden by his father, President Joe Biden—who had repeatedly vowed not to exercise this executive power—was a despicable exercise of the political double standard for which the Bidens and other political elitists are infamous, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.

“This pardon is an affront to all the people who have been convicted and or served prison time for falsely filling out the same federal form that Hunter Biden did,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “Especially those who committed a non-violent crime as a young adult and were never told that they lost the right to own a gun and had no intention of lying.

“President Biden lied when he said he would not pardon his son Hunter,” Gottlieb added. “To use a famous quote from Biden himself, the President is ‘a lying dog face pony soldier.’” Read more

Springfield Armory Compact Echelon 4.0C 9mm

GENESEO, ILL. – Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the release of the Echelon™ 4.0C 9mm, a duty-grade compact pistol engineered for carry. At its launch in 2023, the full-size Echelon 4.5F set a new standard for modern, striker-fired duty pistols. The new Echelon 4.0C carries on this tradition, but with a shorter 4″ barrel and compact frame for enhanced concealability.

At the heart of the fully ambidextrous Echelon 4.0C lies the patent-pending Central Operating Group. Employing cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, it is made up of an entirely self-contained and serialized stainless steel chassis. The result is a system that is easily moved between available grip modules in seconds. The pistol comes standard with the small grip module and three interchangeable backstraps, while medium and large grip modules can be purchased separately.

Further adding to the pistol’s adaptability is its truly innovative Variable Interface System, which employs patent-pending self-locking pins that ensure consistent and reliable point of aim/point of impact. In addition, the pins can be positioned to fit the footprints of a wide range of popular optics. This allows for an unparalleled direct-mount fit between the pistol’s slide and optic.

The Echelon 4.0C comes standard with two magazines — a flush-fit, 15-round magazine; and an extended, 18-round variant. Both magazines feature a scratch- and wear-resistant blacked-out coating for rugged durability and hard use.

The Echelon 4.0C is offered in numerous variants, Read more
