So which one is it Joe, do they make killing too easy? Or are they too complicated for us peasants... er... "Ordinary Citizens" to use?
Combine this with his constant mangling of terminology, (clip instead of magazine, shell instead of cartridge, not to mention the meaningless euphemism that is...
I'm unclear on what the problem is exactly. Are you saying this person simply forgets that they have an empty chamber and is slow to rectify the problem? (seems the most likely to me) Or are you saying that they actually don't know how the gun works/what racking does etc.?
In the first case...
Whoa! I thought I was the only one who had one of these. I hope I won't be taking this thread off topic, but I've got a problem of my own and I was wondering if you guys knew what was up.
Mine is in .380ACP and it seems to malfunction a lot. It's never stovepiped, but seems to experience a...
I would disagree with you on some points. Carbines are favored by many professionals for close quarters use. With a 16" 5.56 upper, you get excellent ballistics, a weapon that you can shoulder (and therefore control better), and the overall length is such that it sticks out only about as far as...
If you're new to shooting I would recommend starting with a bolt-action .22
You want to build skills and good habits, and learn to make your shots count. Think of it this way: you wouldn't learn to fly in an F/A-22 Raptor, you'd start with a training plane first. With a .22 you can practice all...
Michael Moore is a funny guy. He points to a culture of fear and a culture of racism, wraps them up in a really cool theory... and comes to a totally backwards conclusion.
The only ones living in media-generated fear are the anti-gun crowd, who have their roots in racist laws (he even admits to...
Massive noncompliance.
I would rather chew glass than deal with the BATFE. I would rather deal with the hardest, most tattooed Crips; I'd probably be safer anyway.
I don't know about headshots. I recognize their importance in stopping the threat, especially given the propensity for these shooters to wear body armor (as of late), but I don't think they're practical.
One of my best friends is a Ranger veteran and PMC instructor. Before I moved, we would hit...
It's from the Ruger letters. Bill Ruger told congress "no honest man needs more than ten shots."
Either it was a smart move, as it kept them from banning guns, or it was an insidious mistake that cost us the first AWB. Depends on who you talk to.
So long as they are repair parts, they are legal.

This is why mag-cap bans don't work.
When my prescription ran low once, I spent a few weeks only wearing the contact lens in my dominant eye.
Now I have a pretty easy time "choosing" which eye to focus through. I shoot with both eyes open, sometimes with the non-dominant eye halfway lidded. When using a high-power scope I tend to...
Imagine if they had posted a similar map for everyone with a prescription for strong painkillers. You know, for the children.
It's disgusting. An open invitation for robbery and harassment.
Interesting fact:
Eric Harris (of the Columbine massacre) used a break action shotgun with a capacity of two, which he reloaded 96 times. Magazine size doesn't matter for mass murderers. It absolutely does not.
Armed people will terrorize unarmed people until met with armed resistance.
I don't buy any talk of the armed people somehow not being able to resist tyranny.
Why do you think politicians are so afraid of confiscating guns? It will be a bloodbath, that's why. What army wants to face 100 million guns? You simply can't step on armed people. They will take your liberty...
OP, Feinstein has said the new law will probably be incredibly restrictive to cover the "loopholes." 20 bucks says "no semi automatic rifles with detachable magazines allowed."
That is an extreme blow to the effectiveness of self-defense rifles.
I intend to. I think I'll go with 10, and I'll make sure to get those DIY kits where you buy a magazine and pin it yourself down to the legal limit. I solemnly swear I will comply with the law. :)
I wholeheartedly agree. The guns haven't changed, gun laws have only gotten more and more restrictive and less and less people are armed. What's changed is that the community aspect is gone. For all the communication technology, we're more alone than ever.
If you really want to stop mass...
OP's name is JBrady? Hey mister, tell your wife to lay off our guns :D!
I will happily become a criminal if congress deems it so. I will never disarm. I will probably not register my weapons if the AWB gets through, either. The men who founded this country were once branded criminals by an...
