Novritsch Comes to America - Both Sides of the Adventure
Thumpy Covey's insight:

OK, so this will be the most amazing thing to watch for the next 3 months-or-so…Watch NOVRITSCH leave home and heart behind…and trek off to L.A. to spend some unbelievable AIRSOFT TIME with the King and Queen of ‘Murica’soft…JET AND LEAH!

No more words necessary.  Let the games begin!

“Rich and Peter fly to LA to visit our dealers and talk about some of our ground-breaking new products!…”

Thumpy Covey's insight:

What I like most about this video from Rich “Wolverine” Lort…he made the one-and-only FRANK CHU (of F.Chu Customs @ SHOT Show video fame) Laugh!  You’ll see a lot of other ‘faces’ you know in this snapshot of the recent West Coast product show-and-share run…and, dudes’ put on the mileage!  To like and see more from WOLVERINE AIRSOFT’s YouTube Chan…just SMASH THAT PIC!

Real Gun? Toy Gun? What happens When Lawyers without Law Enforcement Experience Write Gun Laws - www.citywatchla.com | Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it | Scoop.it

"...While it is certainly a real tragedy when any child is injured or killed because a police officer mistook a toy gun for a real gun, the burden of responsibility should not remain, solely, on officers and/or individuals who seek to defend themselves against imminent danger or death. 


Parents should know the huge safety risks involved before investing in toy guns for their children and those children should not be allowed to roam the streets carrying them...."

Thumpy Covey's insight:

Although not "real news," this article on City Watch LA's site is an op-ed whose writer has clearly done her homework...and a great "read this" pointer for folks who want to get up-to-speed on the LA./Cali/US Senate Bill situation in a hurry.  And, the quote above?  We could NOT AGREE MORE!

"Toy guns that 'fire' plastic pellets are often modeled after
real firearms, from Beretta 9 mm handguns to AK-47 assault rifles. Replicas are required to have a bright orange ring on the barrel to distinguish..."

Thumpy Covey's insight:

TWO Incidents!...including that dramatic Officer Involved Shooting that ended a high-speed multi-carjacking chase earlier in the week...both will put new pressure on California's airsoft scene.  As far as we can tell, the serious airsoft community/business is NOT where these Craptastic Plastic guns are coming from...from the quality, these are slightly better than the plastic "toy" guns you get from a dollar-store....so, why not go after the REAL source of your issues...and let responsible ADULTS and businesses help!

"The walk to school often took Jamar Nicholson and his friends through an alley off Florence Avenue in South Los Angeles. The teenagers' laughter had become a familiar sound during morning routines, neighbors said...."

Thumpy Covey's insight:

Here we go again, Los Angeles....another AIR STUPID SUPREME...Details at the L.A. Times, such as they are, couched in LAPD inuendo and plenty of skeptical "reporting." Doesn't change the facts.

AIR STUPID CALIFORNIA! - Pasadena Police Arrest Man Carrying Airsoft Gun and Dirk/Dagger at Archery Range - Crown City News | Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it | Scoop.it

"...Police say Cutler was standing near the bridge and that he was armed with what seemed to be an AR-15 Rifle. Cutler dropped what turned out to be an air-soft replica rifle like the one pictured here, when police gave him the order.

Authorities arrested Cutler after they found he was also carrying an illegal dirk/dagger. Police booked and charged him with a weapons violation on $20,000 bail. Officials transferred him to the L.A. County jail because of a pre-existing medical condition...."

"...But (Jordan) Baylon is playing on borrowed time. In September, Gov. Jerry Brown signed the Imitation Firearms Safety Act, which forbids nearly all types of pellet and BB guns from being shown in public unless they are fashioned in pink, red or another bright color.

Supporters celebrated the passage of the law, which goes into effect in January, saying it was a common-sense response to a long string of tragic encounters in which police shot teenagers who were holding realistic-looking replica guns...."

Thumpy Covey's insight:

Skims the surface of the debate...as all "big media" seems to do nowadays...but never asks hard questions or gets solid answers from anyone...and they used 3 reporters and the resources of one of the nation's bastions of journalism to get mush to their "audience/readers."  You are doing this all wrong, LATIMES...why do I alwys read that "Late to the Times?"

"The following information was supplied by the West L.A. Division of the Los Angeles Police Department....

 

...At 10:50 p.m. July 16 in the 15200 block of Sunset Boulevard, a suspect shot a woman with an airsoft gun, striking her just above the left eye. Los Angeles police describe the suspect as a white man between 18 and 20 years old, driving a grey Jeep...."

 

Thumpy Covey's insight:

Second, he's in FREEKIN LOS ANGELES, the Airsoft Hate Zone of the Universe...and

THIRD...He was driving a JEEP!  DOES NOT REPRESENT ANY OF THE THREE!
