  1. Is an RPG considered a firearm or "assault rifle"? Here you go again trying to change the subject to something entirely crazy because your point has been beat

    I think Mag's has been playing to much Black Ops 2. Noobs always going around shooting RPGs like crazy and shit

  2. [quote name=magley64;939725

    A gun's design intent is to destroy a soft target from a given distance.

    I'm just talking about the reality of the situation' date=' your government isn't afraid of your gun... It will not stop them from doing something they intend to do, it will not even slow them down, it will not affect their decision making one iota...your gun does not scare them.

    FBI estimations put gun ownership in the united states at around 305 million. Considering of all the US forces combined there are around 1.5 million, that does put the american citizenry on even footing with our military.

  3. last i heard he stole them from his mothers house, they were all registered in her name. The also said 2 days prior he tried to purchase weapons at a few different gun shops and was denied by the background check process. So that proves the current system works. As any criminal will do they will get their weapons via theft or back channels illegally

  4. And now she's dead by her son's hand. What more do you want?

    Shes dead by her sons own hand because of her own inadequacies as a responsible parent and gun owner. If she didnt have her weapons locked up, its as much hers as it is his. If she allowed him to have access to them via having the combination, or leaving the door open, shes as much to blame as him. To punish everyone else who is a responsible owner is like banning the owning of cars because one drunk driver took out a bus full of kids.

  5. I've thought about the since a young age scenario too. If I had someone living in my house that was mentally unstable...my guns would either be in a more secure safe than they are right now, or removed from the house all together. While we don't know and may never know alll the facts. I think the mother could have done more to prevent this situation and should get a lot of the blame.

    That is what ive been bitching about since Friday. She is as much to blame as he is for what happened.

  6. The point is anything can be used as a weapon. Drunk driving is illegal, but you dont see the government going all out to ban cars. They arent out there banning alcohol. Knives can be used as deadly weapons, but they arent trying to take away my Ginsu's. The first reported killing in the bible was Cain killing Able with a stone, is the government going to outlaw stones larger than an inch?

  7. I don't see the need for every day citizens to have weapons intended for war environments.

    Since when was an AR15 or an AR10 an assault rifle? Neither are capable of full auto fire without some serious upgrades, all of which are strictly enforced and regulated.

  8. "but how do you improve on the system we already have without infringing on people's rights?"

    But you seem to be ok with the loss of personal freedoms? Or you only want to remove the rights you don't agree with?

    Hes ok with being a victim and praying that in a situation where he is assaulted with a gun that the police will be able to come and save him.

  9. I got myself a Springfield Armory XD9 4" Service in OD Green. All the guys that i see up here either get all black or the stainless with black lowers. If anyone here remembers my Ninja 650 youll know I like to be different, that even goes over to my guns. Got it for $500 out the door. MSRP was $459 The cheapest place around me was Old English Outfitters but with the cost in gas down I come out even in my opinion. I am exempt from taking the Concealed Carry course with my veterans status. Ive already taken my paperwork, and photo down to my sheriff's department and turned it in. They did my fingerprints and background while there. Entered my information into their system and told me Ill get a call in 3-4 weeks to come pick up my license.

    Dont freak out, I was a line coach small arms trainer when I was discharged in 2004, I have ample training in the handling of a firearm. I will be signing up for an advanced class come the spring.

    I got my wife her christmas present, a Ruger LC9-LM. She loves it, fits well in her hands. Its all black and has a Lasermax ambidextrous laser sight. Its a nice little gun but not for me, too small and far to much trigger travel for my taste. I have her scheduled for her Concealed Carry course in March.

    We took both our guns out to my father in law and ran some rounds through them. Father in law broke out his Judge. That thing is a blast. I have to say though, my XD fires flawlessly. I used Federal general FMJ rounds for plinking. Plan on getting some personal defense hollow points at some point, just not sure which ones I wanna get or where to get them.

    I also managed to purchase my AR lower receiver and some spare parts for which i will be building myself an AR15. My wife made me promise to wait till after we get our taxes back to finish the built though.
