Dan calls Vice President Joe Biden “the crazy old uncle in the attic.” Which invites comments about interior illumination and vacant houses. And how.
Politico.com reports that “Vice President Joe Biden is planning a new gun control offensive – one he told a group of law enforcement officials he hasn’t informed President Barack Obama about yet.” A rather convoluted sentence for a rather convoluted concept: implausible deniability.
The Veep revealed his “secret offensive (in both sense of the word)” to a closed door meeting of LEOs. “Biden told the cops he ‘hasn’t really discussed’ his plans with Obama and plans to lead the gun control charge, according to a person who attended the meeting.”
What’s to discuss? Wave the bloody shirt, make misleading, ill-informed statements about armed self-defense, flash improbably white teeth and continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of defeat.
That said, woe betide us all if there’s another spree killing for Biden to exploit.
Armscor should get serious and do their marketing and product lines like Remington did with the 30 Remington AR. …. ;-\
“…flash his improbably white teeth and continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of defeat.”
This is why I read TTAG. Also, this is why I need that new wipeable laptop.
yup
AAA+++
Still wondering why my ‘Machine Gun Kelly’ meme hasn’t caught on……
“Vice-President Joe Biden today addressed the Obama administration’s plans for a new and mind-numbingly-bloody and murderous new shoot-up of hapless little schoolchildren. Then he takes to the road with 34 bloody shirts in his tireless service of victim disarmament.”
Set your watches.
Good to see this AR buyer but hater a groaning over his loss last week. This man is such a hypocrite and looser, I wouldn’t even bother posting this bums rants.
Sounds like yet another example of Obama trying to keep his fingerprints off any policies & actions of his administration.
If it works, “I’m glad to, uhhhh, have people like Joe in my administration…we’re doing everything we can to, uhhh, protect our children and, uhhh, enact common sense reforms”.
If it flops, “Well, Joe had his idea, that the majority of Americans overwhelmingly support, but the Republicans in Congress are stonewalling and letting partisan politics get in the way of common sense reforms”. (of course this speech is written down on either paper or teleprompter)
Both my Marlin 60 and my Mossberg 500 20 gauge are “youth models”, simply because I prefer the size, for all the reasons you mention above.
In Texas of all places.. I can see New Jeresy but Texas!!!
These dipSh*ts really are going to get some poor kid or bystander shot and possibly killed by not educating kids on gun safety… Maybe that’s what they’re going for… more bloody shirts to waive…
I’ve been a life member for over 20 yrs. No one has ever surveyed me. I doubt he’s a member, so he should STFU!
I have had several Benellis over the years and still own one, a full size 20 gauge Cordoba. Benellis, when they first were introduced were known for reliability. Well this Cordoba and an identical one that belongs to a friend of mine’s wife could not go through a box of shells without jamming at least twice. It didn’t matter the ammo, reloads, factory loads whatever. They would both jam.
The woman’s husband is a real Benelli fan and knows the guns inside out. He stripped them completely down, cleaned them and lubed them. They still jammed.
We sent that back to Benelli and they came back only slightly more reliable. I decided to fix the problem myself. You see the inertia action as been changed since introduction on behest of USFW. When the guns first came out a person could put an extra shell on the shell carrier and thus have four rounds total even though the guns were plugged for a three shot maximum. USFW had a hissy fit about this and said that unless the shotgun was changed they would not allow it to be imported. This despite the fact that if a hunter wants to cheat you can remove the plug on a Benelli in about 20 seconds and make it a five shot gun. Idiocy.
So Benelli changed the gun and became less reliable. But no problem! If you have access to a tig welder it is fairly easy to make the gun operate as it was designed to operate. Yeah, it will load a round on the shell carrier and fire it just like the old guns. Big deal.
I think the different departments worry too much about how hunters can cheat. If hunters want to cheat they can. Really what are the odds of getting caught? You are really on your honor to play by the rules. Departments making more and more rules to prevent cheating is stupid.
Robert’s found his Sandra Bullock substitute!
She can put her face near my CSAT aperture any day…
As a gun, it’s not terribly useful. But as political theater, it’s one of the most powerful weapons we’ve seen in some time. A single gun can show just how impotent gun regulations can be. The whole debate becomes a mute point when everyone can easily manufacture in their homes all those items deemed evil by the state.
But beyond that, I’m sure that this is just the first of many improved designs. Remember, that this is completely open source which means that the innovation here will be nearly limitless. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Don’t know if it’s the same company or not but;

As the proud owner of two Saiga 12s (that run like scalded dogs) I’ll forgo that quaint pump operation.
More proof that the only firm requirement to fly a military jet is to able to operate the go lever and have a big ego/mouth.
This setup came onto the radar of the Saiga-12 board I
infestfrequent a few months back and generally the reaction was “Meh…”especially given the price.In this video about arms manufacture in Pakistan they make a bunch of magazine fed pump shotguns.

Does it look and feel like an interrogation a little?
Nice to see an interview with him. I’ve been wondering if his speeches are written out, but seeing how articulate he is on his feet, I’m solidly convinced the NRA made a good choice and he needs to be the face of the gun community.
