Good point, Andy.

 

4 This topic has my blood boiling so much, if I had a blog, I'd have already posted about it twice today.

5 Nobody needs a Camaro or Mustang when a Yugo would do.

6 Five years ago, I'd have thought that this kind of over-the-top bullshit would have outraged people and ended up with massive pushback. I've been proven wrong at least twice since then.

7 The Bill of Rights was a precondition to the Constitution being approved.  If the BOR is negotiable, so is participation in the United States by the various states.

8 No one "needs" a cell-phone.  And considering how often they're used in bomb-making, I'd say they're far more dangerous than some NRA member's AR-15.

9 I just wish there were more hunters in my area. Yeah, most people don't get killed in their automobiles when the dumb f*cks dash out of the woods onto the highway, but they can do a couple grands worth of damage in a split second.

10 I don't need a full-sized pickup, and i certainly don't enjoy 18MPG. ... But I own one, so F-YOU, that's what.

11 Giving up rights is never a good idea; nor is losing sight of that's what those cocksuckers are all about.

12

I don’t “need” my AR any more than Rosa Parks “needed” to sit in the front of that bus.

 

BOOM goes the dynamite.   Brilliant.

15 Comments are gone noooo

16 Nice. I like it Andy. The Rosa Parks line is getting stolen.

17 How is it that items found nowhere in the Constitution, like social security and welfare are     sacrosanct    rights, while specifically listed items are negotiable?

18 ...
Where did the comments go?  Why did they get un'd?

19 Reading Cooke link.
It is amazing how quickly (for government) this was all put together. One month HURRAH

Fast and Furious????

Benghazi???

20 The Bill of Rights was a precondition to the Constitution being approved. If the BOR is negotiable, so is participation in the United States by the various states.

Unfortunately, I would guess that a large majority of our citizenry really have no knowledge of, nor interest in, the BOR or the Constitution as a whole.  That was probably always the case, but at least way back when, the people tended to be more irascible about government agents telling them what to do.  The long march through the institutions strikes again.

21 Hmmm, is this thread being stepped on?

22 Oh.  There they are.

23 Who needs more than ten (10) lifetime abortions?  Why can't we limit the number of lifetime abortions for one woman to ten?  I mean, I support the Constitutional emanations and penumbras, but it time for commonsense abortion control?

24 I need to get some more ammo.

25

6 Five years ago, I'd have thought that this kind of over-the-top bullshit would have outraged people and ended up with massive pushback.

 

There are so many people who don't pay attention to what is going on, Brandon.

 

Some of them won't get pissed until there is a knock at their door.

But it is just now starting to filter out into some of the low-info people's little brains...as to what is going on...because of the side-stories, more than the headlines.

 

People see long lines at a gun show, and go..."Woah, what is going on?"

Or they hear about some state official saying that they won't enforce any new federal gun laws...and say, "Wait, what new gun laws?"

 

So it will take a little more time, I think, for the massive pushback to kick in.

 

26 Andy that's a stellar point.

Powell is dead to me, but Condi Rice is pro-gun, has been demonized by the left in a personal way, and could speak eloquently on civil liberty.

I'm logging for a bit but I enjoyed this post enough I felt I had to praise it.

Thanks.

27 I need an AR like a hole in the head.  Of course, I have 5 (or 7, depending on how you count) holes in my head.

BRB, off to buy 5 ARs.

28 An Eddystone sniper rifle dated 1918 , still can make a effective lead poisoning..

Not to worry. Saw a Chicago Trib article yesterday that they had the "high speed" train up to 111 miles per hour for about 15 miles in central Illinois yesterday. There hope is to get it really speedy thru  Ill. so they can go from Chitcago to St. Louis in 4.5 hours. Right now it takes 5.5 hours.

The liberals do not support even 10% of any part  of the Constitution.  And that includes the liberals in all three branches of government.

43 Nobody needs a prenumbra, either.

44 Hmm.... wasn't the KKK founded by some upset Southern Democrats?  Didn't the Donks try to stonewall the Civil Rights Act?  And now, all of a sudden, they are trying to get their message out that they "care" about children - even though they like to send their own children to "elite" schools like Sidell Friends - schools that have armed security?

The Donks/soclaists don't give a damn about us... except when they feel that the people have too much power... and they see guns as part of our "power.

45 Unfortunately, I would guess that a large majority of our citizenry really have no knowledge of, nor interest in, the BOR or the Constitution as a whole. Then those LiV's are gonna have a shit fit when I start telling them to "shut up" because the 1st Am is being repealed.

We were talking yesterday before TFG's press conference and at one point he said, "You know, there's fast approaching a point where we're going to take our scary black guns, march on DC, knock on the door and say 'hi, we'd like our fucking country back now.' "

67 >>>Local militias taking on the US Army. As a counter example, see every civilian uprising, ever. Open a history book. Military defeat of armed civilians (as opposed to unarmed civilians) requires not just intimidation but actual violence. That is much harder to accomplish, and exponentially harder when the civilians are friends and relatives. But I guess you suppose that Afghanistan was a cakewalk?

68 What we need desperately is an Article V convention.  If we don't get one I fear we are going to have something else, and it will not be pretty.

70 I had a neighbor approach me out of the blue a few days ago and offer to buy my AR from me for two grand. He's not even a gun guy; he's seen me heading out to the range occasionally, and we've talked over the fence about firearms and whatnot. The truly weird thing is that this guy is a middle-aged middle-manager kind of guy, and I'd bet my watch and chain that he's a Democrat. I didn't sell, mainly because selling a firearm is a hassle and I've tweaked that AR quite substantially over the years, and I like it. But the whole story just lends more data to the position that President Obama is the best salesman the gun manufacturers ever had.

From the link...

 

Who better, too, to form the backdrop at the proposal’s unveiling than a caboodle of children, whose vague letters about a “better world” were read out by the president at the start as if they were the Federalist Papers? This, together with the endless repetition of the word “children,” is a despicable trick; an inappropriate, manipulative, and mawkish affront to reason that highlights everything that is wrong with legislating while emotions run — or, rather, are kept — high.

 

I should point out that the operative word  in that quote is "manipulative." Gun-control nuts are clearly jerking the LIV's around  by their lady-parts. The only reason this has any effect at all is that our  society has been feinized to the  point where your emotions can be used against you and your interests.

I don't like feeding the trolls, but here's my thought. US gun owners don't stand a chance against the US government. OK.

 

Right now there are 55 million households in the US with guns. Lets assume that just 10% violently resist. Thats 5.5 million households (not persons). This is also the same military that has been held down for over a decade by somewhere around 100,000 terrorists in Afghanistan. The thing is while direct confrontation would be suicide, any insurgent force knows this and will not choose direct confrontation.

Also given there are around 800,000 troops in the military, and about the same number of police forces, even assuming 100% of those groups would side with the government (they wouldn't) you're still left with 5.5 million insurgents against maybe 1.6 million. But....they have tanks... which are just big paperweights without fuel. Supply lines are the first things to go.

I need to be clear, I'm not advocating anything, I just think its a fallacious argument.

"How does one go about learning to be a gunsmith?"

 

 

 

Well, I can operate machine tools and have a degree in mechanical engineering, and have read many books on gunsmithing, and applied those skills to numerus firearms but that is the slower way. The other way is to take the courses through a well known school. Thats faster and more expensive.

Destroying the statists/socialists arguments:

 

1)  Why would anyone need an AR-15? 

A:      It is the most popular rifle in America.  RR owned one.  The cops love them.  Why would the cops need them?  We don't want our cops to be killing machines do we?  They are to protect us.  If a cop thinks it is an effective tool to protect us, then if the cops are not around it would be an effective tool to protect my family.  It is used for target practice and hunting as well.  And finally, FUCK YOU, it is a RIGHT to own one.  Frankly, this is settled precedent based on Scalia's opinion in Heller.  The number one rifle in America is what the American people have chosen and, therefore, it cannot be taken away.  Read the opinion and you'll see that.  That's why they are fucked on semiautomatic handguns.  They are most kept in the home for selfdefense, and they are the most popular conceal and carry weapon.

176 I keep harping Luckygunner.com Wow, they're all out of .22LR. That's quite a run on the banks.

177
So a rifle is evil because it's BLACK.

178 From what I've learned on the Internet, a .223 can do no more than mildly wound a chihuahua, but a .308 or .45 will instantly vaporize anything smaller than an elephant. You are forgetting that a 22 or 38 handgun is useless.

179 Its a good idea to learn to reload and cast your own bullets. Fun and practical, and as long as you have wheel weights, you have bullets. With gas checks, you can drive hardened cast rifle bullets above 2500 fps. Pistol bullets with gas checks can be driven over 1500.

180 Andy, you forget to mention that the initial purpose of gun laws were to prevent a Tom Robinson from defending himself when a Mayella Ewell accused him of rape.  And with Tom's lynching there would be no trial and a need for an Atticus Finch to defend him.

181 176 So a rifle is evil because it's BLACK. --- Solution - Make it pink with a Hello Kitty design.

182 Also given there are around 800,000 troops in the military, and about the same number of police forces, even assuming 100% of those groups would side with the government (they wouldn't) you're still left with 5.5 million insurgents against maybe 1.6 million. But....they have tanks... which are just big paperweights without fuel. Supply lines are the first things to go. I need to be clear, I'm not advocating anything, I just think its a fallacious argument. If their families are targeted while they are in the field, "supply lines" wouldn't even be thought of. THAT is the biggest thing the American serviceman enjoyed during WWI & WWII. They knew their families were safe while they were across the "pond" and while island hopping. When the rules change, see just how many muster.

183 I'm all for closing one background check loophole...the one that allowed SCOAMF to become president without fully disclosing key information about his own past and background.

184 Wow, they're all out of .22LR. That's quite a run on the banks.

2)  The found fathers only had muskets, and could never think of semiautomatic weapons and magazines that could fire 100 rounds in a minute.

 

A:  It is true that weaponry has advanced, surely.  But there is no mention of muskets in the Second Amendment.  Nor hunting.  Aside from rifles and pistols, private citizens had CANNONS AND WARSHIPS.  That is what letters of Marque and Reprisal mean.  The founding fathers brought in privateers to help fight the Revolutionary war and hired merchant ships that were outfitted to the teeth with cannons and all the modern weaponry of the day.

 

So, the idea that private citizens only had muskets at the time is a fucking joke.

193 Perusing guns last night, it struck me. You know what's NOT an assault rifle? M1 Garand, that's what. No pistol grip, friendly wooden color (not black; sorry Gen Powell) no 10 round magazine. It was kind of "assault-y" during Normandy and stuff, but has since settled down to a more civilized way of life. Not like my upstart LR-308 AP4 Panther.

194 Damn.  *buys Brandon a Coke*

195 >>>Fun and practical, and as long as you have wheel weights, you have bullets

For what a musket? Unjacked lead wont survive the acceleration of a modern round. Only pistol, and OLD rifle rounds (45-70 45-90 25-35 30-30) will survive being fired without a jacket.

196 The liberals I know would say your statement is irrelevant because owning a gun and a right to equality aren't the same thing. As they spew this shit, they completely miss the point and no amount of logical, factual reasoning will sway them because they are just that fucking stupid and ignorant.

215 DoD leaders warn Congress of ‘hollow’ force By Robert Burns - The Associated Press Posted : Wednesday Jan 16, 2013 19:10:00 EST WASHINGTON — The nation’s top military leaders warned Congress in unusually stark terms that its failure to pass a 2013 defense budget — coupled with the threat of automatic budget cuts — has pushed the Pentagon to the brink of a crisis. They wrote in a joint letter to congressional leaders that the readiness of U.S. armed forces is at a “tipping point.” A copy of the letter was provided Wednesday to The Associated Press. The military leaders said that troops in combat and those who are being treated for wounds will get the funds needed. But the rest of the force will be severely compromised if the Pentagon has to continue operating on last year’s budget. “We are on the brink of creating a hollow force,” said the letter signed by the chiefs of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and National Guard, as well as the chairman and vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Pentagon is facing two major money problems. First is the threat of drastic additional budget cuts if Congress and the Obama administration are unable to agree on debt-reduction measures by March. The second is Congress’ failure thus far to pass a 2013 budget; that has left the Pentagon on a spending path based on its previous budget. Perhaps the first and most important task of any President is to provide of the Defense of the United States of America. And obama is dropping the ball and does not seem to give a shit. Says all you need to know. And by the way this is obama's pentagon saying these things.

3)   The UK has 35 firearm murders, the US has 12000.

 

A:   This statistic is totally fucked.  First, the US had roughly 8600 firearm "homicides", not 12k.  Second, of that 8600, a bit over 600 were justifiable homicides by police and citizens.  So of actual firearm homicides, the number is just under 8000.  Roughly 70% of these can be contributed to gangs, if not more.

 

Britain had near 70 firearm homicides, not the 35 that piers dumbass keeps citing.  And it is also flawed because in the UK, a "firearm death" is not recorded until there is a CONVICTION, and even then the police are known to underreport crime not to scare away tourists.  Also note that Piers never tells you what the firearm crime rate is (he just sticks to homicides because it fits his story).  Since the citizens were disarmed, firearm crime is through the fucking roof.  I went to the UK in the 1990s and no cops had a gun, period.  Now a lot of them are armed.  And not just with a trust revolver.  BUT WITH FUCKING ASSAULT WEAPONS.

 

Again, why should the cops need such weapons.  We do not want them to be killing machines.

 

But back to the UK, how is it living there?  The people are prisoners in there own homes.  In the US 10% of all burglaries are "hot burglaries" meaning that they happen when the people are home.  In the UK it is FUCKING 50%!!!  "Knife crime" as they call it is out of control and there are a ton of stabbings, so much now that the idiots have been calling for "knife control".  Imagine sitting in your home, unarmed, and just wondering if the criminals are going to barge in and attack you, your family, and your property.

 

And defend yourself?  Better not do so.  A man shot at two home invaders in the dead of night while he was in his bed (with a bad, illegal gun of course).  One of them died.  The man, doing nothing but protecting himself, was convicted of FUCKING MURDER and is serving a very long jail sentence.

 

Not only are the people prisoners in their own land, but the violent crime rate in the UK is out of control.  Now it is somewhat distorted because they are very liberal in what they deem an assault, but even if you cut the reported number in half, it still is more than DOUBLE the rate of violent crime in the United States.

 

The UK is a very dangerous place and will continue to get worse.  In the US, the average Joe has a fighting chance thanks to being armed.

236 According to a caller on c-span yesterday, a .223 fired from an AR15 will tear the front half off of a deer. Apparently the flash hider makes the bullets explosive.

That should have been an executive order, for the children.

237 70 Does ANYBODY yet know for sure what weapons were used in the Newtown murders?   ---------   Not as far as I know. And it chaps my ass whenever I see some libtard hassling folks about assault weapons used in Newtown and the person they're hassling doesn't pop right back with "oh? which assault weapon? have some reporting to back that up?" Makes me want to punch the magical TV box.
 

238 And there is a big big big difference between a fully automatic "machine gun" and a fucking shoulder launched missile, nuclear weapon etc.

And with the possible exception of the nuke (and that's only possible) they wouldn't have cared.

Much of the cannon used in the Revolutionary War was privately owned.  A 2 pounder was their equivalent of the shoulder launched missile (reasonably portable, able to deploy relatively quickly).  They'd have no problem with private citizens own bazookas or tanks.

239 OK, nothing like surfing the net at lunch.  My recollection of the Rat PAtrol lead me to IMDB, which mentioned that the music for the show was written by Dominic Frontiere.  Good Lord, could he be related to Georgia Frontiere, the bimbo who owned the LA Rams?

BINGO!  He was married to her.  He also did time in the federal pen for scalping Super Bowl tickets that he got from his wife.  Seems a little harsh, until I read that it was 16,000 tickets.

242 Wrong. Posted by: maddogg at January 17, 2013 12:34 PM (OlN4e)

Exceeding 1800-2000 fps is going to deform your bullet, unless you either have a jacket, or can alloy your lead to make it hard enough to withstand the acceleration. Them's the breaks. I guess you *could* fire them from a modern rifle with a drastically reduced load. But your accuracy may or may not be there using a velocity so far from original design, and, you are going to perform at best no better than those oldies (but goodies) I listed above. If you want to run cast bullets it's better to get a gun whose cartridge was originally designed for them than say try and derate your 7MM Rem Mag to the point it stops turning your bullets into lead pancakes.

243 You really ought to try an auto and a revolver before you purchase anything. I was convinced I wanted a revolver before I tried both side by side.

I'm an auto guy myself, but for carry applications, the priority for me is have something strong enough and small enough, e.g. Ruger SP101.  That's a great carry gun.  My old college roommate had one too.

I volunteered to put my body between my nation in the form of deference to the Constitution as mandated by the Commander-in-Chief  and her enemies.

My posts here have been rather voluminous to show that when legal and justified I am ruthless at heart.

I would not be as collateral averse as our current retarded hamstrung RoE has us, but neither would I kill innocents wantonly.

Our current OPFOR abuses the weak, decapitates the captured, and is as immoral as I hope to be moral in my life and I would not emulate them no matter how satisfying the look in Chris Matthews' eyes when bound a person grabbed an acetylene torch, a Gerber, and a hand saw and told him "Chris the people you lie about and aided when Bush was President in order to undermine our mission are real fans of decapitating people with rusty knives I promise you I will not be using a knife." would be.....

We ARE better than they are.

Insurgency without goals and deference by fighters to elected separate civilian leadership is not something I'd be a part of.

I do fear you're correct, and I would hope you aren't.

God willing the left will back up and we can maintain this union to keep this Republic.

4)  Even Ronald Reagan was for gun control.

 

A:  It is true that he supported the 1994 assault weapons ban.  It is also true that in 1994 he was 83-84 years old and suffering, somewhat significantly, from dementia.  It is also true that the Brady's, very personal friends of Reagan's obviously, were hounding him and asking for his support.

 

It also is true that he had no idea what kind of a goofy ban that was since he owned a fucking AR-15.  It also is true that even though he himself was shot and wounded very badly, he never ever supported or called for gun control legislation.  It also is true that he was an ardent supporter of the Second Amendment.

 

He may not get an A grade, but he definitely gets a B++ in my book.  He has an excellent article in a 1970s edition of Guns and Ammo that is worth a look.

Mike you don't know what you're talking about. Check it out. I'm talking hardened lead alloy with gas checks, not fucking fishing sinkers or mimie bullets. I can drive 150 grain gas checked bullets 2500 fps in a .308. The data for loading and casting is available from Lee precision, along with methods.

And standard wheel weights ARE alloyed, and hardenable. I've done it.

263 They didn't envision buses, either.

Posted by: Hollowpoint at January 17, 2013 12:39 PM (SY2Kh) Price - the lower the better (although I won't buy junk just to have it) Caliber - I don't want a fucker getting up if I have to use it Size - small enough to comfortably carry all the time Weight - same as size Beyond that, no real biases or feelings

Nah.  .223 is perfect for doe hunting.  Almost no meat loss if you shoot them in the proper spot.

266 Revolver here. Slower on the reload, but much quicker on initial presentation. Perfect for those SURPRISE! YOU NEED A GUN! situations.

For simple personal defense purposes, you won't need more than one mag's worth of ammo.

Unless ofcourse, you're RWC.

269 What we need is a major pushback. Public service employees don't *need* to travel to Hawaii for meetings. I was looking at who is in Hawaii this week at their convention center website. All I can say is it's pretty disgusting. And that's just this week. And probably not nearly the full list.

270 I just wish there were more hunters in my area. Yeah, most people don't get killed in their automobiles when the dumb f*cks dash out of the woods onto the highway, but they can do a couple grands worth of damage in a split second. We've been remarking on the sad number of starving deer around here this winter. I'm in New Yorkistan where teh gunz are being banned as we speak. With the deer getting desperate, they are all over the roads, even in daylight now. And it won't be just liberals getting in possibly fatal accidents, so we all suffer.

272 Headed to the gun show this weekend Rons. Mostly interested in what they have in the way of ammo. But I'm also keeping my eye out for a good carry gun. Suggestions?

Posted by: BCochran1981 at January 17, 2013 12:34 PM (da5Wo)

 

My (licensed) carry weapon is a commie surplus Bulgarian Makarov in 9 x 18. I changed out the Bulgarian internals with East German precision parts, replaced all of the springs, and gave it a trigger job to reduce the pull on the double-action. Thin carry profile so it barely 'prints' with IWB carry, amazingly accurate, and--most importantly--absolutely reliable. Strongly recommended.

273 I'm an auto guy myself, but for carry applications, the priority for me is have something strong enough and small enough, e.g. Ruger SP101. That's a great carry gun. My old college roommate had one too. Reliability, power, and size. All in one. Posted by: EC at January 17, 2013 12:43 PM (GQ8sn) --- Right on, that is one sexy piece.

278 That is why all rifles should be required to include muzzle brakes. To slow the bullet down as it is leaving the barrel.

I fucking hate hate HATE muzzle brakes.

Every damned time I go to the range, I end up next to someone with rifle with muzzle brake (usually an AR with 16" barrel). 

It's difficult to shoot accurately when you're constantly being hit with the unnecessarily loud report and shock wave caused by the muzzle brake deflecting gas sideways.

279 Right on, that is one sexy piece.

Yeah it is.  My roommate had one that was stamped with US Postal Service markings.

5)  The proliferation of heavy weaponry in the US is why there is so much gun violence in the US.

 

A:   No, gangs and cities is the problem.  It is the people, not the weaponry.  Switzerland has the third highest number of guns and purportedly the highest per capita ownership rate.  Its citizens keep their MILITARY FUNCTIONING (MUCH BETTER SHIT THAN WE HAVE) once they are done with their service.

 

The Washington Post had a hilarious article by some doctor (a medical doctor for fuck's sake) where she says that the Swiss aren't interested in guns anymore and keep their weapons at some kind of depot.

TOTALLY FUCKING UNTRUE.  More than 250k (that's a lot of Swiss for such a small population) attend the annual shooting competitions where the government gives out free ammo.

 

And yet despite all those weapons and all that ammo and all those gun nuts and all that military capability, the murder rate in Switzerland is next to nil.  No mass shootings, no school shootings.  So, no, ownership of guns is not the problem.  Ownership of highpowered military weapons is not the problem. 

 

Oh, and one more stat on the UK, when its people had arms of all kinds THEY NOW HAVE THE SAME FUCKING MURDER RATE as they do now, when everyone but the criminals are disarmed.

 

And wait for that murder rate in the UK.  It's been rising over the years and will continue to go up consistently.

282 I need an AR-15 more than I need the New York Times or MSNBC.  Something tells me the left-wing media industry will not quite as enthused about making reporters get permits or requiring that ink and newsprint purchases be registered with the government even though doing so would regulate the First Amendment in the same way they propose to regulate the Second.

Looking forward to the emergence of jurisprudence on the subject of regulations that are unconstitutional merely because they might "chill" the exercise of Second Amendment rights.

Huh? Not sure how cocked and locked is any slower than the first shot from a DA revolver.

293 'brake/ break'

294

194>>> Fun and practical, and as long as you have wheel weights, you have bullets

"For what a musket? Unjacked lead wont survive the acceleration of a modern round. Only pistol, and OLD rifle rounds (45-70 45-90 25-35 30-30) will survive being fired without a jacket. "

 

It's still a little bit of uncharted territory, but I've started powdercoating my home cast lead bullets before loading them.  The baked polyester powder is as tough as nails to the point where you can squash a bullet  almost flat with a hammer before it cracks.  I've started doing it to allow me to run  cast reloads in my Glock barrel without leading.   It also greatly reduces the smoke cloud associated with shooting traditionally lubed bullets.

 

According to some of the other guys experimenting with the process over at castboolits dot com, they're working up rifle loads that push jacketed velocities.  IMO, it has real potential.

295

"They'd have no problem with private citizens own bazookas or tanks."

 

In my northern VA county (horse country, outside DC, where lots of CIA and Washington Post hi-lines have always had their estates--did you know Catherine Graham and her husband bought Bill Donovan's townhouse in NW DC when they were newlyweds?) a previous sheriff borrowed all kinds of interesting armored stuff from a local private citizen of the horsey set, parked it at the county building in the county seat, and scared the bejeebers out of the LaRouche folks thinking they were going to be raided.

 

Google on Isom, Bryant, for an interesting read, including the LaRouche news perspective.

 

296 And it won't be just liberals getting in possibly fatal accidents, so we all suffer. But I can pretty much guarantee that the first time a liberal has to pay a $500 or $1000 deductible to ransom their car out of a repair shop, the thought of a hunter killing Bambi's mom will no longer send a tear rolling down their face. I think it was former Philadelphia mayor Rizzo who said that “a conservative is a liberal who got mugged the night before”.

297 I would love to see a gun shop hang out a sign that says "We Accept EBT."  Put that pic on the Web and sit back and watch the liberals' heads explode.

Poppers copper Alloy????

299

And finally, the British fought a fucking civil war over the right to be armed.  It ended when the King granted them basic rights, one of them being keeping arms.

 

And how did their government fuck them????  Parliament said that that "deal" applied only against the King, and not against Parliament.

 

Unfuckingbelievable.  I hate lawyers.

 

So think on that the next time someone says that the Constitution is outdated and we should just get rid of it.  After all, modern societies don't have one, just look at the UK.

 

Very true, look at the UK.  They have no founding document.  They also do not have free speech and are completely disarmed.

 

I'll take our way any day.

300 you know what i "feel" i "need" to do? clean my guns.......

301 >>>And standard wheel weights ARE alloyed, and hardenable. I've done it.

One the hardness of tire weights is variable. Two recasting presents an unknown element of variable de-alloying. You don't have a full metal furnace I presume and are otherwise incapable of assuring metal strength, hardness, toughness, and brittleness. So you are really just guessing the properties of the metal you are using. If you have achieved consistent results thus far, bravo, it doesn't mean you will get consistent accurate long shooting projectiles from this method.

302 I love Drudge's pictures today. The one with Adolf is particularly creepy.

Nor unwatered trees of liberty.

304 Insurgency without goals and deference by fighters to elected separate civilian leadership is not something I'd be a part of. I do fear you're correct, and I would hope you aren't. God willing the left will back up and we can maintain this union to keep this Republic. I did not ask for this fight. I do not want this fight. I have already been equated to the Nazi's by some on the left for even owning a gun. If it comes to the point of soldiers and police going door to door for confiscations or camps, you can be your ass that your families lives are on the table and expendable. Homey don't play that game. If my family's lives are on the table, so are theirs. I didn't ask for this. I don't want it. I won't go looking for it. I just want to be left the fuck alone. However, I will NOT meekly walk to the ovens.

349 The Black Rifle is not evil unless it is pointed at you. It is not about the rifle, anyhow. It is like the man said here earlier---it is not about the seat on the bus it is about the right of Rosa Parks to sit there.

355 The "you can't hunt with an AR" is complete fallacy.  Many people, including myself, hunt with them.  The problem is that liberals/non-hunters equate hunting exclusively with large game, particularly deer.  The fact is, while from the standpoint of an ethical hunter I would not hunt deer (or elk, or moose, etc) with an AR-15/.223, that platform is ideal for coyotes, groundhogs, prairie dogs, and other varmints.  Further, the AR platform in another caliber, e.g. 7.62x51/.308 or even 6.8mm SPC, is useful (and is used) for deer.  That's without getting into actual 2A basics.

356 Luckyguner still has some .223 in stock but going fast.

One thing that keeps occurring to me....who in the hell would pass legislation or executive fiats and other bullshit at the behest of CHILDREN?  What the fuck do children know?  Just because a child wants something or demands something, doesn't mean it can be done or given.  They don't even know how the world works or what hell is even going on.  More evidence that the children are fully in charge now....adults have been prohibited from running the country and the world for that matter.

371 You know what you call a group of kids like the one the President had yesterday? Human shields.

Wrong again Mike. Lee research found clip on wheel weights to vary in metallurgy little at all. Very consistant. To the point of his recommending it for casting bullets. And a hardness tester will give you the needed information on how fast you can safetly drive them. Lee gives all the charts and formulas. I suggest you check it out. You don't need a 3000 degree furnace, all you need is a pot.

I don't think you finished your point. What exactly are you saying?

374 367 Yes, two handguns were used to commit all the murders, a Glock and a Sig. The AR was never used and found in tiny dick'scar.

Do you have a reference for that?  I'd like to use the fact but have seen conflicting info and want to be able to point to a solid reference to back myself up.

375 348 For those idiots who claim the 2d Am. is racist - they need to read Justice Thomas's opinion in Heller (or McDonald, I forget which). He explains that the first gun control laws post Civil War were designed to keep newly freed slaves unarmed and at the mercy of KKK.

Current lefty meme is that the 2nd Amendment was put into the Constitution to control teh black people.

Former current lefty meme that only muskets are relevant to the 2nd Amendment is shot out of the water by saying the 1st Amendment only applied to this:

377 Your AR15 is a military-style death machine that poses a threat to civilized correctly-thinking persons, especially when the United Nations moves to help America become an inoffensive member of the world community. Such a tool of counter-progressive thought cannot be allowed to remain in the wrong hands.



And by wrong, we mean yours, you hater.

When the US Army issues a weapon, they issue 30 rd magazines.  Our soldiers need these mags for the same reason we need them, which is to be militarily effective.

AR-15s are great because they are standardized.  My mag will fit your rifle, and I have a group of like-minded citizens each carrying a AR-15, we can share ammo and magazines and be a much more effective fighting force.  This standardization came out of military necessity.  What is true for the US Army is equally true for you and me.

The AR-15 platform is a nuisance to keep clean in the field, and--at least based on my experience back in the day with the M16A1--it must be kept immaculately clean or it will malfunction. Meanwhile, I can take my beatup, rattle-rattle Yugo commie surplus SKS to the field, and it will obstinately refuse to malfunction no matter how much I abuse it. I can hit center mass on a man-sized target while standing and offhand at 50 meters every time. That's all I want.

 

So yes, you can achieve precision with an AR-15 platform. Me, I like reliability, so I guess I'll go hang out with the AK and SKS guys on the other side of the gym.

380 I agree with your post and took the selected H2 tweets from the begining and posted them as my FB status along with a link to your blog. This apparently aggrevated one of my 'celebrity' friends who claims to be a comedian. **COUGH** CHRIS FONSECA **COUGH** **COUGH** He referenced your blog and said the following on Facebook "NEW RULE -- ANY MASS MURDERER SHOULD TARGET PROPLE WITH "Ideas" like this first. Can't believe how ignorant people are! This is supported by Mark XXXXXX" ...and then proceeded to post your blog. I think it would be cool if the people who support your blog would let CHRIS FONSECA of Denver, Colorado know how idiotic HIS statement is that we should be targeted by mass murderers because we support the Second Amendment or that we believe that all of our RIGHTS as outlined in the Constitution are equal one to another or because we object to our gun rights being infrendged upon by executive order without legislation! Give 'em hell! And God Bless America!

381 I need an AR-15 because of FUCK YOU.
