I am AGAINST just about every form of gun control there is.....
BUT I do agree that there has to be some kind of system to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals and crazy people. I wish they made it so that they ENTIRE COUNTRY had ONE type of firearms permit and if you got this permit there were no background checks and such. I also wish that they would tattoo a giant NO on the foreheads of child molesters and such.....but that also will not happen. If they would quit with the "each state decide for themselves" and come up with a reasonable blanket policy for the whole country. Why can't I have short barrel rifles??? I live in Alabama....the most gun friendly state there is!!!
Putting the majority of the responsibility on the FFLs is how the ATF is handling it for now. I get some guy that looks like he should have a big white dress on and a towel on his head, thick accent and fills out the forms to buy a gun....putting down he was born in Birmingham Alabama and has an ID that says he is "William Jefferson"......he passes the little phone call I make to the ATF and who do you think will be in trouble when it comes time to hold someone accountable? If there was a system that I spoke of earlier and I could just punch in "William Jefferson's" info and pull up a pic and details about him I could see that this guy is NOT him.....but we can't have that. We have the most rediculous mess ever when it comes to gun transactions......but if it was easy then they couldn't spend billions on keeping the ATF busy with this each year.....
Its ok....its not like there isn't a bill or more ideas they will pass just to show they are "trying" to stay up on things......its about time for them to change the color and format of the 4473 again isn't it??? Its only been three months or so since the last change.
I rest my case.
You rest your case because (of course) you think we should just hand guns to ANYONE and EVERYONE that wants one. In your world there are only good old boys that want to live out the old days where you could run down to the corner store, buy a bucket of nails and a full auto machine gun. Everyone is just minding their own business and only want to take their little boys out to plink at cans or take down the yearly 10 point buck and a freezer full of does. There are no worries about the stupid gold teeth thugs, maniac professors that make pipe bombs and shoot up a room full of coworkers if they don't get ten yr...none of that worries you a bit.
No no LF, in my world we follow the contract. To make that easy, we actually put criminals in jail and keep them there if they need to be kept there. And we hang those in public at the courthouse, who need to be hanged. We don't put the pot grower in prison for 20 years, and the murderer for 8. See how a justice system that "works" negates the need for ignoring the contract? This is how they have designed it, to convice the average "folk", that these infringements are needed.
When I was 14, purchased my first firearm. Model 1000 semi-auto 12 guage. Went into Coast to Coast, the man unlocked the case. I pulled it out. Went to the counter and paid. The man just smiled. So did I. That was only 1984!!!!! We didn't have all these massive gunlaws that we have now, nor did we have school shootings, gangbangers, pedophiles up the street, etc. What we had was personal responsibility, because without it, there were consequences.
Freedom carries risk. It is worth it to me. But we will have to return to treating violent criminals like criminals (The result will be far less of them) and stop treating the law abiding as if they are guilty until innocent. That is what all of these RKBA violating laws do!0 -

Kasey: Regarding your 1977 Colt Cavalry set http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=231757236
You might be interested to know that the "MSH" initials on the stocks of "MSH" are those of Martin S. Huber. Marty was the Colt Historian Emeritus. Colt used his initials in honor of his 57 years of service.0 -

just a little fyi
webleys rechambered for 45 acp has not worked out to well, the original .455 is only proof tested to 13200PSI max, .45acp is 19,000-21,000 psi
as a result its not safe at all, and should only fire .455 webley cartridges

You should have listened to me when I asked you to check the trigger on that Bushmaster rifle. You may not even remember me asking you, but I gambled and was right. It has the High End 200.00 Bushmaster target trigger installed. I bought it just for the trigger[:D]
Good Deal!!! Thanks[8D]0 -
Do you have any Steyr M40 pistols in stock, or can you order one? If you don't mind me asking, what is the list on one? Been looking for one here, and none of the shops have any, or seem very interested in ordering me one. I have an M9, and would like to give it a buddy! [:D] Thanks in advance. 0 -

I live in NC and cleaning a septic tank was 225 last year. You might want to get a second opinion on your work. Ours was through Roto Rooter. 0 -
Watched The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo the other night at home and they added about an additional 1/2 hour to the original edition. That last sex scene never happened in the original.
Leave it to those wacky Americans to spice up a movie.0 -
