I love NEA.

Manufacturers can shoot the products they build and sell to "test" them.


Retailers of prohibited items can not shoot them according to the CFO even though there is no law against it.

It's not hard at all if you are actually doing it. The CFO's aren't stupid though. They will come inspect your shop. If they see that you are doing what you said, it's actually pretty easy to get all the bells and whistle.

The manufacturing license, if I recall, allows for the test firing and demoing of prohibted stuff. That's how NEA could do that.

When I look back on the license we had and did nothing with, it makes me cry.

Sure. NEA created a new covert account, nursed it up to 770 posts so that the ycould post a video of a gun none of us can buy and that it already widely known of.

I think not.

Seems to be the HK marketting plan. Cool stuff we can't buy, so the SL8 still sells due to the G36. Let's face it no one would buy the SL8 at it's current price point if they could get a non restricted G36 for the same money.

As for widely known about.. I believe the currect term is "infamous". At least at this point. It wasn't the start everyone was hoping for.

To the OP. Can we see some close up pictures of your rifle?

So I can turn up at a LE/MIL shoot but can't shoot our suppressors or 30rnd mags.

Nor will any agency put it in writing that they would like to see a demo, which is what we require for the CFO to be given permission to shoot with our products. They won't do this because is goes against procurement policies/laws.

So we are in a catch 22.

The CFO said if our clients want to test them, they can go to the US to try them out or read the information put out by the manufacturer.

So for us it's like trying to sell a car and not let the client take it for a test drive.

Yet another reason to get rid of those ********* (I'd be banned if I said what I really mean :D).
