Arrest of School Shooter’s Dad Shows Fatal Flaw of Gun Control Measure

BELLEVUE, WA – Today’s arrest of Raymond Lee Fryberg, father of Marysville Pilchuck gunman Jaylen Fryberg, on charges of illegally purchasing the pistol used in that shooting demonstrates the fatal flaw of so-called “universal background check” legislation, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.

“Apparently,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “a permanent protection order issued against Fryberg back in 2002 never made it into the National Instant Check System (NICS). Penalizing all law-abiding gun owners because a system is flawed does not prevent crime from happening, nor does it keep the wrong people from getting their hands on guns.”

The government alleges that not only did the elder Fryberg provide false information on the Federal Form 4473 when he bought the Beretta pistol his son used in the October shooting, he also allegedly bought four other firearms at various times. It is not known why information about the protection order did not appear in the NICS system, but Fryberg’s status as a disqualified person apparently never showed up during NICS checks. But he apparently knew the protection order was still in effect months before he bought the handgun, and so did the tribal court. Read more

Ruger Introduces SP101 in .327 Federal Magnum

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE-RGR) is pleased to introduce the SP101® in .327 Federal Magnum. The Ruger® SP101 in .327 Federal Magnum is a six-round, small frame, double-action revolver with a 4.2 inch barrel and adjustable sights. Built from stainless steel, this new model features a light-gathering front sight, windage and elevation adjustable rear sight, and a rubber grip with checkered hardwood inserts.

“The SP101 has a reputation for being a very strong and reliable revolver and combining it with the powerful .327 Federal Magnum cartridge creates a perfect “kit gun” package,” said Chris Killoy, Ruger President and Chief Operating Officer. “The compact size of the SP101 makes it the ideal companion while in the woods or afield, and the longer barrel helps the .327 Federal Magnum cartridge reach its velocity potential,” he concluded.

The 29.5-ounce, SP101 can be fired in either a double-action or single-action mode, and includes Ruger’s triple locking cylinder that locks the cylinder from the front, rear and bottom for reliability and durability. The rubber grip assures positive control while reducing recoil, and the Ruger transfer bar mechanism provides a measure of security against accidental discharge. Read more

UTG Introduces New AK Stock Kits – Made in the USA

Few firearms can claim to have a career as distinguished as the original AK47 designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov. AK is an icon that lives off of its reputation for ultimate reliability and functionality. To equip it with inferior accessories will just not do. Many aficionados may scoff at the idea of changing its appearance. Enter UTG. With a growing line of products dedicated to taking the classic AK platform into the next decade, we have been making accessories that do not detract from its inherent strengths, but eliminates its weaknesses.

By design, AK 47 has more in common with a machine gun than a modern sporting or battle rifle. The buttstock is sloped downward to allow controllable full auto fire, while the short sight radius is not made to take single precision shots at distance. UTG’s new adjustable stock kits are designed to bring the AK platform closer to a classic rifle profile by eliminating the large downward slope of the initial buttstock design and lining it up along the bore axis, much like a typical AR15. Since most AK variants sold in the US are semi autos, this type of conversion makes a lot of sense, and greatly enhances performance.

The first kit (RBU47KT02 – MSRP: $57.97) is dedicated for stamped receiver AK variants and made out of a high strength, impact resistant polymer stock assembly with an AR profile that features a sling loop and an additional “shark fin” style sling attachment point. The stock assembly rests on a Mil-spec 6 position aluminum extension tube that has been hardcoat anodized for wear resistance, and is permanently attached to the receiver adaptor to eliminate wobble. This design provides a better cheek rest than a standard stock and allows the user to adjust the length of pull based on his/her own preference.

Our second kit (RBU47KT03 – MSRP: $59.97), also made for stamped AK variants exclusively, has all of the same components and functionality of the previous version, but also gives the user an additional 20 mm of vertical stock adjustment via a clever multi-groove design within the adaptor interface. This feature is absolutely critical for those using scopes as it will enable a perfect cheek weld and improve overall ergonomics. If you are only willing to make one change to your AK, then this is the one we most highly recommend. If you decide to take it further, consider adding a side plate (TL-M47SR – MSRP: $8.95), a quick-detach side mount (MTU016 MSRP: $57.97), and even one of our popular handguard rail systems (MTU009 – MSRP: $74.97) just to name a few. And if you really want to take it out there, stand by for our new AK Keymod rail system (MTU027SSK MSRP: $159.97), which is currently being prepped for release. Lastly, all these key component parts are made in Michigan, USA, for you to easily stay 922R compliant. Read more
