They claim they're scratch resistant. Not sure why they're even there in the first place? I see the need for the tab on either side of the magnet, but just can't see need for the grommets.

The grommets are for screws to mount to a non metal surface.....?..??..

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

This: 14.95

OR this: 19.95

Plus this: 5.98

Gets you three for about $21 -26. Maybe not as pretty.... but I think it'll work just as well. Might have to drill a countersink hole to mount to a wall, but it's 50 bucks cheaper.


Edited for Content: BUT NO! Say it isn't so!! If you click below, you don't even have to do all the work. 14.95 with free shipping from Amazon Prime
