As TTAG reported back on the 10th, Southwest Shooting Authority put up a post-election poster telling Obama voters to FOAD. The Pinetop Arizona gun dealer also ran the poster as a full-page ad in his local paper (the White Mountain Independent). The story of his politically divisive firearms fervor went national, recently running at huffingtonpost.com. Rob Pincus is plenty pissed. The gun guru and TTAG contributor’s Tweet makes no secret of his belief that Romney voting Republicans who intentionally antagonize left-leaning gun owners are doing gun rights a disservice. Earlier today, our Armed Intelligentsia discussed the wisdom of compromising with liberal gun control advocates. Now we need to wonder about marketing. Don’t we?
Assault Weapons blow up planets too…. if you happen to own a Death Star.
All manufacturers need to organize and ban any weapons sales to local, state, and federal governments. If we cant’t have them neither can they.
Better yet attach national reciprocity, and make 49 rounds the maximum.
Ok ok even if we make 30 rounds the standard attach national reciprocity to it. It will make them go nuts!
As far as “common use” 30 round magazines are everywhere, as is the AR, and AK platform. So based in Heller we have a case. I honestly don’t know anyone who uses a 100 or 200 round drum. I am not saying they don’t have a purpose or are great to blast away your paycheck at current ammo prices, but if we think logically. If we are going to give up something, even 100 round drums, lets get something in return.
Thank you for expressing your beliefs!

RE: What He Said
it’s more important to train yourself to move away from danger—and/or towards cover/concealment—than it is to know how to run/shoot your gun. — Robert Farago
If your shooting stance is good, you’re probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly. — Marine Corps Rules for Gunfighting

Good on that young Marine! There’s right and then there’s right. Good on the local police, sheriff and prosecutor for recognizing that as well. However make sure you know your state laws – concealed carry and citizens arrest, in particular. For example, some states, in a situation where a CCW holder has elected to defend a stranger from death or serious injury, require that the defender be able to articulate that they knew before hand that the stranger did not initiate the assault. That being said I trust most of us here would do the right thing regardless.
