Daniel Defense is quite capable of producing a quality rifle regardless of LAV’s official affiliation, but that seems to have ended. BCM appears to be listed instead. Is it over?
Perhaps DD asked him to leave…LAV did have a habit of shooting up/blowing up their merchandise. 
“Buffoni…hand over the guns!”
All jest aside, I’m sure he’ll be along to make an announcement if he feels so inclined.
Ha, that’s funny! Still, though, that new video with what’s his name is some dumb looking shit! “Let me jab my rifle’s muzzle into a cinder block and then hurtle some hay bales. That’ll make me super tactical! Watch out Costa, here comes Rob Pincus!”
For those who haven’t seen it:

That jumping is hilarious to watch…lol
Well, Larry has been talking more about BCM lately than Daniel Defense.
Perhaps ask him the SME section?
No matter your opinion on the subject matter, that video would be 100x better with the 6 million dollar man sound effect during the slow motion segments, particularly the cinder block and hay bale parts.
Watching that video totally just tickled my taint…
Mad ninja skills right there. :neo:
I usually stay out of this crap, but for heaven’s sake DD is better off without any spokesperson than they are with this Pincus fellow. This is coming from a DD customer and fan.
I don’t think we need another Pincus-hate thread.
It was discussed heavily here:
^this. A severe marketing error on DD’s part.
Amen.
Too bad they couldn’t have him shooting while hanging upside down.
Interesting choice by DD.
:blink::bad: Pure speculation, but I wonder if maybe LAV saw the writing on the wall?
I had zero plans to post in this thread…right up until I read that. I almost choked on my Guinness and that would have been a tragedy all in itself. All I can picture now is that sound when he jumps over the bales. Thank you for the laugh sir.
I agree with you completely. DD has always been on my want list because of their quality but geez that video with the cinder block and hay bales was a little out there.
I’m not tracking.
Did DD plan to drop him or something?
I should add I have never trained with Pincus. I am really in no positon to assail his methods or question the value of his training etc. I simply don’t know about that, so I’ll leave that to others who have experience in that regard. Unfortunately, the video does not lend an air of credibility to Pincus who is a relative unknown for me.
I have trained with Mr. Vickers on two separate occasions and can unequivocally state it was money well spent. My experiences aside, Mr. Vickers’ reputation is well established.
I was speculating on if LAV knew that DD was going to add Pincus as a spokesman, and thus started to distance himself from DD. Like I said, pure speculation. For all I know, Vickers is still affiliated and hangs out with Pincus.
