The firearms world was rocked this week with the Devil Dog Arms Founder and CEO Joe Lucania admitting to stolen valor on being a USMC sniper. Stolen valor is about individuals claiming to have served in certain units or claiming to have been awarded for bravery though these are bogus claims. Lucania posted on Facebook admitting to it and has stepped down as CEO of the company.
I am making this statement to express my deepest regret and to apologize for the damage, hurt and disrespect to the military community, industry partners and individuals. I am not and was not a marine, did not serve and do not have a DD214. I have no excuse for my actions and realize there is nothing I can say or do to make this right.
I have no more involvement in any capacity with Devil Dog Arms.
With Sincere Apology,
Joe Lucania
