Shannon Watts of Everytown for Gun Safety is claiming victory today for shutting down the sale of the \u201cBlock19.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Created by boutique firearms dealer Culper Precision<\/a>, the Block19 is a Lego-inspired design, chambered in 9mm, that really functions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Utah-based company released the piece last month as a part of a PR move to get folks on both sides of the gun divide talking.  Needless to say, it worked! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe wanted the second amendment to simply be too painful to tread on, so there was only one logical solution,\u201d Culper Precision said<\/a> in a Facebook post on June 24th, showcasing the gun.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHere\u2019s one of those childhood dreams coming to life, the Block 19 prototype, yes you can actually build Legos onto it,\u201d they continued. \u201cThat RMR is comprised of miscellaneous pieces and a red lightsaber.  We superglued it on and surprisingly it survived several hundred rounds in full auto at Shootah this past weekend!\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watts probably had a conniption when she first laid eyes on it.  Because she wasted no time reaching out to The Lego Group to encourage the toy bricks company to issue a cease and desist letter to Culper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lego carried out Watts\u2019 demand and Brandon Scott, the president of Culper, was now faced with a potential lawsuit if he didn\u2019t comply with the c&d letter.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scott told The Washington Post<\/em><\/a> this week that he would no longer offer the pistol for sale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLast week, I tweeted about this gun meant to look like a toy last week and our organization reached out to Lego, which then sent a cease and desist letter to the reckless gun maker – he says he\u2019s complying,\u201d said Watts on Twitter Tuesday, referencing Scott’s response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, I tweeted about this gun meant to look like a toy last week and our organization reached out to Lego, which then sent a cease and desist letter to the reckless gun maker – he says he\u2019s complying. Read the story here: https:\/\/t.co\/hl5P7OKiVW<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/SH4QbwHfPw<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Shannon Watts (@shannonrwatts) July 13, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote> \n\n\n\n

Though Watts believes she scored a big win for the gun prohibitionist movement, from the sounds of Culper\u2019s most recent statement on Facebook<\/a>, it appears she played right into their hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe here at Culper Precision are grateful for the attention that Block19 is currently getting across the globe. We built Block19 to create an opportunity to talk about the enjoyment of the shooting sports and the joy that can only be found in marksmanship practice and training,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By taking the bait, Watts inadvertently exposed Culper to a range of potential customers that it might not have been able to reach organically while, in the process, getting an untold number of people to acknowledge that 2A rights are for everyone, not just those in military and law enforcement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

As Culper stated, \u201cWe built block19 to show all these new firearms owners that guns are not JUST for Law Enforcement and current or former Military, or the types that are prone to overt bravado that is so often portrayed on social media, guns are for EVERYONE, and we want to be the first to welcome new firearms owners from any personality type or political affiliation, if you own a firearm, you are our friend.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
