Thank you for having me on.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

Yeah, so basically it kind of came from hunting.

We're based out of the Midwest in central Minnesota.

We do a lot of coyote hunting.

State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

It's kind of the biggest pastime in the winter for us.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

We got really into the thermals and suppressors as that kind of became more legal and more available in the industry.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

Obviously, we're younger, so it happened kind of right when it was the right time for us, and we got into that.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

um got really tired of lugging around 18 inch guns and suppressors and everything got big so it was an idea that started as a shortening something up wanted to do a bullpup but didn't really like the options that were on the market and kind of thought they ours right there and i figured somebody had to do it so i got looking at it for a couple weeks and nobody was doing a conversion system for it and i kind of thought to myself can't be that hard and i'm going to search it and

Down the patent process, we went and kind of developed that.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

And that's our biggest thing is the bullpup conversion and offer that for the industry and want to do something just different in the aerospace.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)

There's so many companies that do anodize this, anodize that and same, you know, mild tweaks on stuff, but wanted to really shock and go an entirely new platform with the same parts that everybody has was the whole idea of it.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

It's very controversial.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

Yeah, we got put to the heat pretty good from the jump.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

But the whole idea was a lot of the connotation that comes with that is the poor trigger or poor ergonomics or it's outdated and developed in the 60s, whatever argument you want to make.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

But the whole idea of what I developed was start around the trigger, make sure that that's not an issue, make sure it's modular, make sure there's as much aftermarket support as possible.

And then bullpup platform, because another thing that people gripe about is that there's just not a lot of

Once you have one, you have it.

You buy an AUG, you've got an AUG.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
State of The Second 127 โ€“ Tiny Footprint, Big Rifle Performance (ft. Reap Weaponries)

Fantastic.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)

But there's no... There's some stuff now, but in the beginning when we were first starting, there wasn't a huge aftermarket for it.
