8mmDale Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I was thinking about having a Glock sale at my store in honor of Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy. Since this dumbass works so hard to sell firearms by calling for bans on stuff which then turn into goldmines for gun sellers, I was thinking about doing a sale in her honor. Something like for every new Glock purchased you would get a free extra "high capacity" magazine. Would that be wrong? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I'm an insensitive asshole and like this idea so I'm guessing its probably a bit insensitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 uhhh...This could get interesting. If this is a serious idea, I think it could lose you business. At least in the short term until people forget. We all know how easily people forget everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-bus Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) A little girl lost her life. Too many people will not get the joke and tie it to making a mockery of the shooting. Edited January 14, 2011 by C-bus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblosser Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I was reading elsewhere tonight that magazine sales have been up significantly in the past few days due to talk of banning any that hold more than 10 rounds.Rep Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) (...double "duh" there) that plans to introduce a bill to do just that, ban sales of 11+ round magazines, next week.I would posit that 8mm is thinking of a sale in honor of her, not Gabrielle Giffords.@8mm: do you have a storefront, or are you operating from your home?

Casper Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 A little girl lost her life. In his defense, he didn't say anything about the girl. Trust me, I don't think anyone here sees this event as anything other than a tragedy.

Honestly, why do you need more than 10 rounds in a handgun? I have a pistol solely for home defense. If I empty ten rounds and haven't killed the intruder, I should probably be reaching for something larger anyways if I'm not already dead. I really don't care either way, although I'm of course against the government banning much of anything, so..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sick, hypocritical thing about it is that I was thinking of picking up a G19 this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8mmDale Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 $499 in their flyer, 9mm or .40.My price is better than that! (and I have .357 Sigs too). But I didn't mean that it had anything to do with the shit head who shot up Tuscon. But this ass hole McCarthy has no concept of reality about what she is doing. She gives Glock more publicity than anyone when she does this, and she has to know it has no chance of going anywhere. Maybe 15 years ago, but today? No way. Shes going to be the 2011 gun salesman of the year in her quest to ban everything that can cause injury in the hands of the wrong people. I think the 9 year old dying was the worst thing about the event. What kind of sick fuck could have done that? They should give this guy death by sledge hammer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Honestly, why do you need more than 10 rounds in a handgun? Don't you post pretty often about the coming Zombie Apocalypse?
