Since when did a properly trained engineer become the ONLY person qualified to speak upon the safety/design aspects of a firearm? I guess Jack O'Connor and Jim Carmichael's opinions aren't worth the paper they are written on? What about John Moses Browning? I guess Roy Weatherby Sr. didn't have a clue about what he was doing either? Tell Samuel Colt's ancestory that he was an idiot because he wasn't formally trained! And tell John Lazzeroni to stick with electronics and stay away from guns since he is only a hunter by nature (on second thought tell him since he wasn't trained in electronics at Yale that his J&M Corporation is really just a farce).
This post by RedAllison is going to give Bridges and Wakeman the big head for sure. I do appreciate reading both of their internet writings and have learned from both of them, but to compare either of them to the legends of the gun world is quite a stretch. I STILL want to know about both of their formal training and I will add that I would like a list of their published works (and the internet DOES NOT COUNT). Thanks!
