Don’t forget that Ready Made Resources is increasing the price of their upgraded Gen 3+ unit from $2,695 to 2,945 due to price increases from ITT and Litton. (Most dealers already charge $3,100-$3,200 for these.) These units are far better than the average PVS-14. The photosensitivity they guarantee as a minimum is 2300 and the signal-to-noise ratio is 23:1. For now, you will still get the free weapons mount and shuttered eye relief, but after April 1st these bonuses will go away. If you want to order a Gen 3 PVS-14, then order it now, from a reputable dealer, such …

SurvivalBlog has received a number of concerned queries from readers who may end up on the customer lists confiscated by the ATF in the raids on EP Armory and Ares Armor. We are still gathering information on what exactly happened, but the picture that is beginning to emerge is that an individual across the state lines used EP Armory lowers, purchased through Ares Armor, to build rifles without serial numbers and then sold them to others. If that is indeed the case, that individual broke the law (in regards to the Gun Control Act of 1968). Bear in mind that …

From californiarighttocarry.org: “On March 14th Federal Judge Janis L. Sammartino ‘modified’ her TRO to allow the BATFE to conduct the raid pursuant to a warrant at the request of the ATF effectively nullifying her earlier TRO against the ATF in the case of Lycurgan Inc. v. Jones aka Ares Armor v. BATFE. The jack booted NAZIs of the ATF raided Ares Armor.” o o o Today, we have two guest articles. The first, from our resident medical editor, deals with a subject that worries many of us&emdash; “Stretching your medicines when they are unobtainable”. The second is critically important if …

Ares Armor has now been raided by the ATF despite wining a temporary injuction against them. There is no official word yet, buy here is a Youtube video of agents rummaging through the inventory with evidence of the door being pried open. Presumably, they are also confiscating the customer data as well. – B.B. o o o Today we present another entry for Round 51 of the SurvivalBlog non-fiction writing contest.

SurvivalBlog received quite a few replies to the story yesterday regarding EP Armory, and I think we are beginning to get a picture as to what is going on. Simultaneous to that story, another manufacturer, Ares Armor, was able to temporarily stop the ATF from confiscating a customer list of those who purchased 80% lowers. According to one source, it would appear that the ATF is more interested in those that purchased the 80% receivers than anything else, and the raid’s purpose was to capture customer data. There is some question about what constitutes the 80% in a polymer receiver …
