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

That's what I'm looking for.

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

You can get that done pretty easily.

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

So provisional patent is good for a year and then you have kind of the option to go whether you want to go into utility for 20 years or not.

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

The provisional is kind of the most important thing for me because you're... I would advise that heavily because you're kind of blacklisted where people can't see it as easily as if there's a utility patent being pursued.

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

So definitely provisional patent and then...

finding just an engineer that's willing to work with you and cross the bridges that you're going to cross and being able to explain it's,

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

it surprised me how few the firearms industry is very interesting as far as how the rest of the world perceives us.

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

Cause there's a lot of companies that just, they will wash their hands.

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

They don't want anything to do with firearms at all.

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

Even when we were building a website and getting that off the ground, there's a lot of companies that will not touch a firearms website.

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

And that was a kind of a newsflash for me that I didn't expect going into it.

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

It just never crossed my mind.

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

And same with attorneys and stuff.

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

There was a lot of lawyers that just weren't willing to,

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

either weren't willing or weren't knowledged in the space of firearms and didn't want to kind of go down that path with us.

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

So finding a lawyer and an engineer that was comfortable and willing to go into the firearm space were two big ones that we had to do a lot of research into that was kind of a blind side for us that I didn't expect initially going into it.

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

And then, yeah, just...

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

I watched a lot of YouTube and a lot of gun influencers and a lot of reviews to know what I need to avoid before I got into developing stuff.

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

So that was kind of the biggest thing for me, too, was in the beginning.

Nowadays, I don't get enough time to watch a lot of content anymore.
