We are a few months out from the election and it seems congress is mostly in deadlock, so unless he's concerned about a local/state ban in his area Id not be terribly concerned.
We just came within an inch of shit getting very crazy in this country. Who the hell knows what might happen between now and inauguration day, regardless of who wins the election.
I'm not a fan of drop-in cassette triggers for defense / fighting rifles. They're not easy to clean or perform maintenance on. The Schmid 2 stage, Larue MBT-2S or one of the many Geissele triggers are more practical options.
I had no problem with other uppers on that lower, Anderson is the only one that gave me problems.
Anderson has never had good QC. I bought a 2 pack of Anderson stripped lowers back in early 2020 for $60. Both are fine, but you're flipping a coin when you spend $30 on a lower.
A slightly more expensive option is an IWI Zion.
I think the Zion-15 is a really good option for a decent complete rifle under $900, but some people balk at buying something made by an Israeli company. Makes no sense to me, since all the major brands sell to cops and the feds.
I'm poor so a laser training cartridge has helped me train and has shown me things about my technique and pistol that have already helped me be a better shooter. It's so nice because I'd rather save more ammo than I shoot, since I don't buy ammo often.
The
Mantis dry fire devices are pretty handy for people who don't dry fire enough. They kind of gamify dry fire and help keep it interesting for people who find dry fire practice boring. Mantis sells their Blackbeard thing that resets AR triggers, but for pistols, there's the
DryFireMag. None of this stuff is cheap, but when used regularly, people will save money in ammo they'd otherwise be pissing away at the range, not really running drills.
I don’t have the time or money to go to the range and practice shooting pistols to be sure that doesn’t happen to me. I want what I know how to use.
This is the kind of thing that can be solved at home with regular dry fire and weapon manipulation practice. For people with weaker hands/arms (women especially), releasing a locked back slide is as simple as gripping the back of the slide with your off hand and pulling back while pushing forward with your primary hand on the grip.
