DSA ZM4

DSA of Lake Barrington, IL is now producing AR-15s. I have a copy of their shorty, called the ZM4. Beautiful and functional rifle. These rifles come with a "D" ring already installed on the extractor spring! What a great touch. I have "D" rings on all my AR-15s, but I am pleased to see that DSA is now doing it from the factory.

This rifle will get a workout over the next few months. DSA, along with Robinson Arms, are at the top of my list! The ZM4 is my "car gun" for this trip.

From a friend in Norway:

"After a recent, violent bank robbery in Stavanger, Norway, where one of our local LEOs was shot to death by robbery suspects, police here might finally become regularly armed. As it is now, most units have only old, S&W revolvers, and they're locked in their beat cars, never carried. No speed loaders. No extra ammunition. The ammunition we do have is crap.

Maybe now even desk jockeys and liberals will come to the inescapable conclusion that the rest of us have been trying to tell them for years. Tools and training are necessary to get the job done."

Lesson: If you're not serious, don't confront people who are! I fear all the Euro-weenies will have to learn many more painful lessons before they finally decide to face reality.
