Disbanding the BATFE is a fools errand. Not going to happen. There are still congressionally passed laws on the books that would have to be congressionally repealed. The closes would be to roll the Bureau into a division of the FBI. However, there is a lot of bureaucratic crap the ATF does...

Went very well. Made a ton of cash for the club and the rifle went to a good home. TV news report: http://kezi.com/page/170348

That's what I told him. He doesn't see a problem.

Please excuse the use of "Assault Rifle". I have criticized the writer for this, and he maintains that it will get more publicity. I understand this is a somewhat local event, but I felt that this was the best forum for it to be seen by the widest number of people. Feel free to post this on...

I couldn't find a decent pic of the real one, so I figured the toy one was good enough. But there really is a Glock NASCAR team. I saw a S&W car too, and I think Remington has had them in the past. It's really quite fitting: Most of the major sponsors of NASCAR are under the thumb of the...

I didn't see anyone else point this out, so I will: Um, they don't have any idea which laws they are talking about. The Brady Law is still very much in effect. The law that expired was the "Assault weapons ban" in the 1994 Crime Bill. Bipartisan support? Didn't the law barely pass? I...

And balance in the universe is restored... :)

Irony: You can get a license to carry a handgun concealed, but not an auto knife. It's kinda cool. Benchmade will only sell to LEO/MIL or Oregon residents, due to interstate commerce stuff. On the Interstate commerce stuff, not to be a killjoy, but I think the only reason auto knives are...

The law states that a machinegun is a firearm the will "fire more than one shot, without manually reloading, by a single function of the trigger." Therefore, if it's open bolt, but cannot fire more than one round, becasue it can only hold one round, it shouldn't be classified a machinegun...

Wow! I completely forgot about this thread. Time to read up!

And here we go again. I posted numerous threads about the Akins fiasco on ARFcom. Every one of them turned into a pissing match over whether or not the Akins constituted a machinegun. On the last one, I had to pretty much lay the smackdown on a poster to prevent another argument. Since...

One reason Oregon won't honor WA permits is that WA doesn't require a class to get the permit. Since the requirements are not as stringent as OR, WA permits aren't "good enough". Since OR doesn't honor WA permits, WA won't play ball and honor ours. THis is more of an educated guess, possibly...
