"Battle Rifle Company" (https://www.battleriflecompany.com/) is who I was thinking about, also started by a veteran.

They were severely/adamantly criticized by members of an AR forum a year or more back (I won't name it specifically) for what they considered gross manufacturing mistakes. Were they correct in their criticism?

Yes, they were. That was circa 2013. Kurzadkowski (US Army 74-93) and company took the criticism to heart and did significant retooling of hardware and process. I'd buy one of their rifles today.

Here's the post-criticism followup when The Firearm Blog was invited to come back to the shop and give Battle Rifle Company another objective evaluation: http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014 ... vengeance/.

Are they affiliated with B.R.C.C.?

Or, is it just another company using a similar name?

Anyone know?

There's Black Rifle Company LLC, a small FFL just a few miles from me on the northwest side; not affiliated with BRCC to my knowledge.

There's Texas Black Rifle Company (https://tbrci.com/), an AR and Glock and 1911 parts manufacturer, but they're in Shiner.

There's also Chris Kurzadkowski's Battle Rifle Company (https://www.battleriflecompany.com/) in Southeast Houston, not far from the Space Center; they make Stoner platform AR rifles and pistols, and even sell reloaded ammo. Could that be the one you're thinking of?

Otherwise, I'm drawing a blank for anything similar named "Black Rifle" near Houston.

I thought some of the T-shirt printing looked familiar. I'll bet their T-shirts are produced at the same place.

Sounds like my kind of people

We've all been there. That moment when we ask for black coffee and the person behind the counter begins speaking in a tongue native to only those with flowers in their beards. We are here to save you from tight pants, wide frame glasses, and haircuts that would make a bowl and scissors seem like a viable option.

It looks like the word has circulated quickly, and that this outfit may have a huge growth curve it its future: "Due to an increase in demand for Black Rifle Coffee, customers will experience delays of two weeks in shipping timelines."

All of their extra dark roasts are sold out right now, which is what I would normally shop for. But I just ordered the "V-TAC Berserker Blend" to try.
