Yes very interesting. I am not a rifle guy since my M-1, M-14, M-16 days, long ago. No complaints for all, they accomplished the necessary. As a pistol guy I prefer at least a 4 inch pipe. I have a snub nose I can not hit a barn with over 15 feet but I have seen people do much better. Training and practice makes the difference. For self defense it is about 12 feet or less, fast, first, final or fatal.
What in the hands of one cop resembles common sense discretion is tyranny in the hands of another.
There is a little difference between a king who makes, enforces, and interprets the law; and an executive branch armed by the legislature with thousands of laws, which the executive may enforce, or not, at its judicially recognized discretion.
It’s at will kidnapping. Arbitrary and stupid laws used to give authorities extra excuses to give when they drag you away.
I would welcome a free NICS background check or one that offers at nominal cost (Like $5 or less, to generate revenue with the federal government). Then make the program accessible country wide allowing multiple server clusters to run dynamically to spread load the work. Repeating what others have said. If the records where immediately destroyed or not stored on the server. Make it an app for our smart phones, thus allowing folks at gun shows and private trades to be able to it without going through an FFL. Although one thing that I would strongly encourage is all gun-owners have their firearm’s S/N written down and/or pictures taken and stored in a safe place. God forbid your firearm(s) are stolen or lost, you can immediately provide photos to the local police department of your stolen firearms and their S/N’s.
Tell your “Facebook friend” that if he thinks guns are dangerous when they aren’t handled expertly, see what “EXPERTS” with them can do.
There isn’t freedom of press/media as it is even with the right to bear arms. Can be fined for certain things written/shown on tv, or like what happened with that liberator thing, even censored on the internet.
The lack issue is largely because we don’t march in and demand it back. Thanks to apathy to bad laws, negligence of not evicting enough bad politicians and electing the mistake of electing them in the first place, the gap between inner party and plebeian is growing. With each increase the more difficult storming the bastion will become.
The responder should not have fired on the moving vehicle. He should have jumped out the way and called for help. It sounds like Mr.Silva was unarmed except for the car. Oh wait a minute posted this on the wrong topic.
I carry two spare mags on my left hip every day. I still feel like I’d like to have more. When I travel, I throw four more in my overnight bag.
Capacity and reload times are perhaps the biggest reasons i’m looking to change over from a wheel gun to an automatic, finances permitting.
This is the same thing the people who report on “pit bull” attacks do. They fail to mention that the “data” and “hard information” they cite is from dogsbite.org, a pit bull agit-prop organization that spins and washes data to suit their “kill them all” agenda.
Nothing new here.
The question men, is how to fight it. I may have an answer … something quite revolutionary here:

Basically this is a primer on how to debate liberals, based on using their brain damage (under-developed amygdala) against them.
First read yields: “this stuff is crazy”.
Second read yields: “this guy is smart, but the content is still crazy”
Third read yields: “Ok I need to try these techniques”
End result conclusion: “This is genius.”
I think you could make a solid argument for the 1911 to be included in that list, but otherwise I think it stands well. These days if you mention pistol, someone thinks of a Glock whether they know that’s what it is or not. Same with the AK and AR, and EVERYONE has heard of the Tommy gun (though most know it for its role in Prohibition-era organized crime, not for its role in WWII)
AR, AK, Glock, 1911 and M-1.
1911 (although most would just call it a .45)
Glock
AK-47
M16
S&W M29 (most would probably call it the .44 magnum or Dirty Harry gun)
Colt SAA – cowboy gun
The Death Star
Han Solos blaster
S-Marts top of the line shotgun – Ash’s boomstick
Nintendo light gun
Ok I went off the beaten path but everyone already used the ‘right’ answers
Hmmm don’t know if you’ve ever posted a picture of Mrs. Watts before…all this action she’s demanding, I might be persuaded to take one for the team.
Those women make service a little easier to accept.
LOL I love American Free Market Capitalism. Demand meet supply. Take that socialists
