found this site from the Brady Campaign, admitting that they want to ban "hunting rifles". This is important for us to show to our "hunting only" friends, that think the gun grabbers will stop when they get the "assault weapons". If you know someone who says that they don't want to take hunting rifles, you had better show them this statement from the gun grabbers!
Brady Bunch wanting to ban the 30.30 http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendID=88508969&MyToken=3a97f861-5c96-4c0d-8970-48ef67c73e7cML
Some excerpts, go and read it for yourself:
"Another rifle caliber, the 30.30 caliber, was responsible for penetrating three officers' armor and killing them in 1993, 1996, and 2002. This ammunition is also capable of puncturing light-armored vehicles, ballistic or armored glass, armored limousines, even a 600-pound safe with 600 pounds of safe armor plating.....
..It is outrageous and unconscionable that such ammunition continues to be sold in the United States of America.."
Imagine the 30.30 being able to penetrate armored vehicles
Sniper Rifles can be equipped with precision optics above even what the Military uses, allowing a sniper to deliver rounds within millimeters of accuracy - enabling them to engage targets at distances of well over one hundred meters. Is there a pressing need to be able to kill with accuracy at that distance? It is too far to justify as self defense. It is too far for hunting. It is only useful for those who wish to murder from afar.
Do you think the Hunters could ever imagine a shot out to 100 yards?
We should also give commendations to France because many years ago they designated any firearm capable of shooting military ammunition as a military arm, illegal to posess without a special permit and unlawful to use for hunting. The 223, 308, 7mm mauser, 30-06, and 6.5x55 have no place in the hunting fields of France. Firearms shooting these calibers are military weapons only designed for killing PEOPLE and should be kept out of the hands of the general population. Because they have no hunting purpose, there is no reason for civilians to own them.
Can you imagine your Hunting buddies saying that they don't see a need for these calibers? That these are "sniper" calibers, not useful for hunting?
If we, as gun owners, don't start banning together, we will be able to enjoy the "ban" by ourselves.
