I'm looking to maybe make up a couple of shooting jerseys. All the cool kids have high end sponsor logos all over their shirts. As a goof, I thought it would be funny to put a bunch of crummy shooting companies logos on the shirts.

I've got some of the easy ones - Hi Point, Uncle Mikes, TulAmmo...

If anyone can think of some crappy shooting companies that no one in their right mind would put on their shirt, please post here. Thanks!

I think it would be funny to take the old 'Ring of Fire' 'Saturday night special' manufacturers and try to make it look cool with some kind of ring of fire logo around Jennings FIrearms, Jimenez Arms and Bryco Arms.

How about Wilson combat or Ed brown? They charge a hefty premium for selling you an incomplete gun that is missing parts.

*edit* people might think I’m joking but I’m dead serious. For the premium that these companies charge for their guns I find it unacceptable that they sell 1911’s that are missing parts. To charge $3-4k for a gun that is missing parts that the user has to still add is unacceptable. When an entry level 1911 company can sell you a complete gun missing no parts that runs reliable I don’t accept that a higher end 1911 company can’t figure out how to do the same.

I lost a bet with my siblings and had to take the Raven my dad had.

I am going to build a presentation case for it and display it.

I was like 10-12 and he has a nickel plated one with the white plastic grips and I just loved it. Don’t know why. Hell I don’t even know if I ever shot the thing, but I was fascinated with it. I’ve been looking on gun broker lately, but the shipping and transfer fee is just so prohibitive. Guns go for $150-$200 and shipping is $30-$40 with transfer of $25. Just not worth it.

Remington, Keltec, Century Arms, Taurus, Stoeger, Many Beretta models, EAA, Erma, Chiappa, Highpoint, sccy, llama, star, RG, Raven, Davis, sun, ... and the list goes on and on...
Bad barrels: .40 high point barrels, some stoeger barrels (almost all triggers), Black Hole Weaponry, Intratec, ISCC 22 barrels... etc... etc...

**note: some of the Brazilian alloy is actually ok and not all stoeger or taurus barrels are that bad but the triggers and other parts are a huge problem. It sounds crazy that they can make some parts so nicely but cannot properly cut, mill and heat treat a nice trigger groups.
So if you have a stoeger 2000 and have a good gunsmith retrofitting the tigger group then they can run for a long time for kids to shoot in skeet leagues on a budget adn without any more failures. Otherwise they will start failing very soon. Pistols have similar problems.

Century Arms and some of the florida garbage suffer also from multiple problems from barrels, trigger groups and all sort of problems that result in unreliable firearms one cannon depend on for anything serious.
