Oh man that was good for a laugh.
If laws/legislation were subject to public opinion we'd all be paying our respects to president Honey Boo-Boo.
I like that he says it only applies to smooth bore muskets. Related: freedom of speech is not applicable to telephones, television, or the...
Almost all of mine are significantly older than I am.
The oldest of which is a Savage Model 19, produced some time in the 1920s.
Until I finish my latest build, my "newest" one is a 1948.
Compared to me, I'm a 1980's model. :laugh:
Don't you wish that you could use the old politician trick of "But think of the children!"
"I want a raise. THINK OF THE CHILDREN."
"You should give me your car. THINK OF THE CHILDREN."
Well that's good news! With all thes DoD cuts, we can just get rid of all of our anti-air craft and anti-armor weapons, because semi-automatic small arms will do the job just fine! :laugh:
It reminds me of a measure that was proposed in NY years ago in the post 9/11 panic to limit caliber size...
Even though studies have shown that the advantage of pre-school largely disappear by 3rd grade, meaning this measure is completely and totally useless.
It's about as effective as their other idea of "Let's just throw more money at the problem. That will fix it, right?"
But hey, in my best...
He's probably one of the guys that sued Ford when they bent the frame of their shiny new Raptor. I don't think they had that use in mind when they designed it.
Oh the internet has already had a field day with that picture.
Just one example of hundreds. I'll let you search for some of the others that aren't quite appropriate for here.
I don't know. When I'm plinking I like my old Savage.
And the reason I want the AR is for coyote/predator, and .22 just won't cut the mustard for that one.
Kind of like having a little 4-banger to drive around town, and a big heavy truck to do the dirty work. Each is right for their job...
I placed an order with them back way back in December and got the same result. They canceled it. When I called to ask them why, basically all I got was "That's the way it is. Too bad." and a less than friendly response.
Definitely won't be going back to them anytime soon.
As foolish as it may seem, I kind of get the same feeling. I think "Ooh, there's a nice _____...aw, but it's .22lr." Always feels like a bit of a letdown.
...kind of like seeing a 3/4 ton or 1 ton truck and finding out it's a gasser. :laugh:
Looking for an AR lower. Would prefer PSA, but let's face it, beggars can't be choosers at this point. I'm willing to look at metal or polymer.
I'll be honest in that I'll probably pass on lowers that have an outrageous mark-up on them. I'm not one of the panic buyers, I picked up a PSA upper...
No one needs a knife. They're just mass murder machines. You can always spread butter with much less dangerous tools, like a paper towel.
I mean come on, THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
Same here. I can't help but look at some of the prices and think "$____ for THAT??? HELL NO! I remember when it was 1/4 that price!"
I sure hope that happens. There seem to be a lot of opportunists and price gougers out there.
I suppose the only upside is that when the craze is over, they...
Seems to be a lot of that going on now.
I got burned earlier on a deal like that. It said "in stock," I ordered, start wondering where my parts are and I get an email saying "Your order has been canceled." What is that nonsense? You let me order, then go "Oh. Oops. We can't honor your order."...
Well if Comcast is as good with polls as they are providing cable, I wouldn't be worried. :D
But I think you'd be surprised how many people are in favor of it. Not out of a malicious sense that guns are bad, but that these measures are as the president says "common sense measures." These are...
There's three kinds of lies; lies, damned lies, and statistics.
It's easy to cherry pick the data.
After all, did you know 100% of people who died of cancer consumed di-hydrogen monoxide?
I hope they have a really nice one, because the one we had in college didn't make anything remotely sturdy. You could pretty much break it with your hand. After all it's just sintered plastic.
What I found funny was the news outlets talking about "downloading and cranking out thousands of...
No shame in that. I'm finally going to sell my 02 with 90k on it. Sips gas and was a great DD.
...but I moved on to a 2012 Ram 2500 ST diesel. Love it. Only thing I don't like is thieves trying to steal my DPF/DOC. :xmad:
