The Bren Ten Curse

[BEEMER1]

The last project was a greater disappointment than either Vltor or Warners...

What is the status of Palmer's project?

I have heard he is in trouble with the law, what is that about?

I stated above earlier that he is a scam artist who had been indicted for fraud in relation to his Bren Ten resurrection scam but I will provide more info here. He was indicted for defrauding people to the approximate amount of $64,000 after being investigated by the FBI for almost a year or so. He also scammed people with a fraudulent Miami Vice 40th anniversary event and he scammed people out of Sig Challenge Coins. He ran a fraudulent webforum around 2019-2020 known as www.thevintage1911.com that took a ton of people for a gun raffle he never delivered on ,and made a member of the forum lie and said he received the weapon. He also had a Patreon for some detective fiction he probably never delivered on and has since been removed from.their website, though the link is still on his Instagram @thevintage1911. He also has a sketchy website where he allegedly sells "timeworn watches." Stuart Palmer is a snake and should avoided at all costs and shunned by everyone. He ****** over investors and Chuck Warner from.the previous project and countless. others.

Thanks for the information.

I had talked to Palmer early on in his venture and his business plan made no sense and I stayed away fortunately.

No problem. I was skeptical and thought he was kind of full of ****, but I was willing to risk a little bit of money on the off chance he actually managed to get a Bren Ten made, only because he was also an investor when Chuck Warner attempted it a few years prior. I found out on my own he was full of **** after contacting a vendor he allegedly contracted; they told me he hadn't ordered anything and the FBI called asking about him.

Some guys invested $10k, and that is wild to me. I never trusted him that much, and I was skeptical even of Warner's attempt, only because I know building a gun is pretty involved and he was mostly a gunsmith contracting out work, IIRC.

Hopefully a company like Tanfoglio or SAR will pull through for us someday if Kincel never does. The quality of SAR stuff is impressive as are the reviews.

Re: Miami Vice and the unavailable magazine issue, I recall back when buyers were frustrated about the dearth of mags, reading that in at least one episode of Vice, Sonny did a tactical reload, dumping his empty mag and moving on. Local Bren Ten owners apparently recognized the location and descended on the scene posthaste in a futile search for the "discarded" magazine. As unlikely as it sounds, I guess desperation can cause all kinds of weird behavior.

I've heard of this legend before, it was years and years ago when I heard it. Have always been fascinated by this tale and just wish that it's true.

I would think Tanfoglio could easily produce a twin of the BT if that is what the market wants as they sort of already have one. But they may not see that as what the market wants.

I did not see the 2006 movie version of Miami Vice. But I checked and found a great many different guns appeared in supporting roles. None of them was anything like a BT.

A guy I am friends with has a decent following on Instagram and follows a lot of other firearm accounts who also follow him. When he gets back from vacation, I am going to suggest we get to work on doing market research on our own.

I've wasted 16 years of my life waiting since the VLTOR announcement in 2008. I want something to happen.

Sadly, it seems a very large contingent of gun owners have zero. nterest in collecting, and would rather own 47 different Glocks.

Anyway, here is some 1006 porn with the FBI grips that absolutely should have never been discontinued.

I know your pain my friend. I've been looking for YEARS but no way I can afford one. I saw one on Gunbroker (perfect match to Sonny's) and I think it was going for 12k or some crazy number.

In the past I had a desire to be one of "The Guys" so I purchased two 10mm pistols (Glock 20 and Glock 29). Shot both and couldn't bring myself to replace my .45s. For what I wanted in a .45 I didn't consider the 10mm would replace.

Regarding the magazines, Patton was quoted as saying the semiauto requires 2 parts while a revolver needs only ammunition.

It depends upon where you are located. The 10mm, in full power form, not a reduced power or FBI load, is a great pistol caliber for rural areas where one might encounter wild boar or bears. For more urban areas where the dangerous animals walk on two legs, the 9mm, 40 S&W, and 45 ACP are excellent semi-auto calibers.
