Forkner just upped his stock with 90% of the casual fans in the stadiums around the US! Good on him for going outside the box and making some extra dough.

For all the people bitching about a "gun" sponsor, what's your take on Onlyfans?

The only stuff here that’s mine is the belt setup and PC, took the loaded mags out and replaced with empty to run a NV drill for some fb beef my friend was obsessed with.

My wife is former LE, and she always tells me Glock 17 and 19  are the most reliable firearms made. 
They even shoot underwater apparently.

I’m no gun expert by a long shot, but around here all I see is Glock as cops’ sidearm…

Yep, Think the sig was tested for my agency, and they had too many drop-bangs.  Glock had none, H&K had none.

All the US Armed forces are in the process of replacing nearly all service pistols with the Sig M17/18 which is essentially the same gun as Forkner's P320.  Glock was beat out by Sig... sort of.. LOL

What was odd to me was Magpul is Graham Jarvis's main sponsor. Seems odd sponsoring in the Euro market to me.

Looks like he believes everything he reads on the internet. My round count isn't as high as it once was (career change) but I'm with you 100%.

Maybe the slide wear will give me some street cred 🍻20130619 14463720120731 001319.jpeg?VersionId=CA19otfWIg5tsm48OyADGZGLw0

One thing my long time military friend taught me is that you probably don’t want something that’s “military grade”, also known as the lowest bidder.

Good to know that the only thing a rider has to do when the fans turn om him is to pose with a gun and it’s all fun and games again.

Not only do you look like a Complete JACKASS but you have no clue what you are talking about when it comes to a Sig p320 or anything regarding firearms.. Sorry, but you don't. Guns are tools. It's been proven in court they don't just go off. But whatever. We are not talking about our favorite dirt bike. Guns are tools. Nothing more, Nothing less. Glock, H&K , Ruger, Sig, Smith and Wesson and whatever the F@%K are just tools. It's not comparable to dirt bikes. Forkner has earned the ability to have this.

Many such cases of 320s going off randomly.  But keep fanboying.  Or post up your best bill drill.


I have a good bit of training and know a bit about guns.  I didn’t say that for no reason.  I can hold my own with a rifle or handgun.

No, what it was is Glock wouldn't make three different grip modules to fit peoples hands that were diff size so supposedly the p320 or military version of said pistol did, Glock sued over the contract.

The 320 shoots great but as usual it's a plastic or (POLYMER) POS

I hate plastic guns.

Yeah, well. In my ODA we don't care what our pistol is. could be .38 six shooter. It's not relevant. But keep doing what you do

Nothing wrong with OnlyFans or Sig. People getting their panties in a wad over either are just pearl-clutching morons. Non-endemic sponsors = good for the sport

Bullshit.  Didn't happen.  Let's not derail this thread, or else let's move it to non-moto.  You know how I know the guys that think they're knowledgable about the ND's aren't knowledgable at all?

 I thought that was common knowledge, like the Mercedes and BMW logos being tied to WW2 Nazi aircraft engines...

More correctly it's a front rifle sight.

It takes some guts and I hope everything is fine from each party because it is not a bad new source of revenue in the sport, exactly like CBD, gopro, etc. It is the US, it is different, so in this market for me it is a big pass.

Anyone that want to foot the bill is welcome. It is a very small industry relying too much on energy drinks and most will be be caught off guard if the wave retracts just a bit. Plus in the US that source of revenue is interesting, wealthy, and good for self defense in a time where for many people insecurity is a reality, so it may orientated a few just on tasers, soft balls, etc, no harm no foul.

Energy are poison… 


But guns kill and injure tens of thousands every year… motocross is dangerous enough we don’t need to associate it with tool only designed to kill.  wtf. 


Also guns are the cringiest gayest lamest larpiest loser shit to froth over.

What the military buys is not always the best performing item. , cost, support etc...also play into. I would pay attention to what special forces carry, they can pretty much buy wha they want.

lol what? Sig has faced lawsuits and had to put a recall out on p320s because they weren’t drop safe. Not to mention, they are based off the failed p250. In order to make up for that loss they just half assedly put a striker system in the p250 and called it a p320.
