Breaking: Radical Firearms Steps Over A Line And Makes Things Personal (UPDATED)Note: I want to take a moment to point out that most bloggers, reviewers and even magazine writers don’t do this as their primary job. Visiting a blogger’s home or, as in this case, going to visit the boss of a blogger’s primary occupation because you were unhappy with a product review, is completely unacceptable. If you have been in the AR- 1. Radical Firearms’ rifles or uppers. Any chance of me taking that company seriously went right out the window as soon as they crossed the line with a blogger that was reviewing one of their “Blueline” rifles. Primary & Secondary is a forum for professionals that use their guns in situations where bad gear can literally get you killed. Radical Firearms reached out to the staff at Primary & Secondary with an offer to review the rifle and asked “only for candid and unbiased feedback” The email to Primary & Secondary is attached at the end of this post. When the staff writer received the rifle, he did a quick inspection of the components before heading to the range like anyone should when shouldering a new rifle.

They never sent the second gun out; instead, Radical’s national sales manager drove over to the reviewer’s primary employer to complain about the review that was being conducted. After the reviewer’s boss called him into his office as a result of the unprofessional and uncalled for visit to the reviewer’s primary place of employment, Primary & Secondary halted the test and will not be conducting any further conversation with Radical Firearms. You can read the entire press release from Primary & Secondary by visiting their website. UPDATE: Radical Firearms responded.

The lack of chrome lining probably makes it more accurate, if you swap out the Mil-spec trigger. I’d buy one if I didn’t already have a 1/2 dozen ARs. We still welcome reviewers willing to provide candid feedback. The rifles will speak for themselves, if reviewed and reported honestly – in the unlikely event they do not perform adequately, we want that information conveyed honestly and accurately so we can deal with it righteously.
