various cheeses posted:I want to try a pistol caliber full auto, but the only "work gun" available was 5.56. I would love to go full Rambo with a M60 too. Why though. Anything under .45 is gonna feel like a wet fart compared to 5.56 and above. Probably cycle a lot faster too but eh. Unless you want to score a tight grouping with full auto (which is kinda against the point and purpose of full auto but I digress).

I need to get rid of these loving things, but there's just no end to them.

Also if you're really looking to get rid of it, wait until the election next year and sell it when everyone starts panic buying.

Play posted:I really don't think he was implying the shooter was blameless at all, or that the gun just magically shot itself. Obviously he pulled the trigger. It's just a way of saying that it wasn't purposeful, it was an accidental shot by a drunken idiot driving around in a truck. The fact that you glom onto this small and to be honest completely insignificant detail from the entirety of that post involving one person's experience with guns is pretty telling. And there are no such things as accidental firings. There are only intentional, negligence and mechanical failure.

Heh yeah pretty much. There are just some things that are all negative and no positive. Nobody is prepared to resist the sway of opiates; it is pretty much impossible to use them "responsibly." As bad as guns are, there are definitely plenty of legitimate uses for them. But not enough legitimate uses as there are guns in this country. Not by several orders of magnitude. I doubt we even have any idea how many guns are IN this country. quote:That said lol if you think access to drugs could get any easier. It's harder to by cigarettes than heroin in most of the country. It's quite accessible in many ways because Americans by nature are lawbreakers (something that is easy to notice when traveling in almost every other country: much more general respect for the rule of law), but its also very expensive. It's worth quite a bit more than its weight in GOLD, which wouldn't be true if it was legalized. For the record, I definitely don't think owning a gun should be a crime like owning hard drugs is. But I think we need to create a significant barrier such that the disturbed, people with developmental and mental health problems, and former criminal have more trouble getting them than they do. Which is essentially no trouble at all. THAT'S the problem. And I think this discussion would be a lot more productive if people focused on this middle ground where we actually might find some ideas in common than the endless back and forth of GUNS R BAD NOOOOO and NO GUNS R GUD I <3 GUNS In an unrelated matter, it's funny how Trump is ginning up this anti-Mexico thing, when in fact its quite the other way around. America is a HORRIBLE influence on Mexico. Our enormous need for drugs and enormous amount of money we are prepared to spend on them finances the operations of some of the worst people on the planet who routinely murder and execute dozens or hundreds of people at a time inside Mexico. They can do this because of the money we pay them, and ALSO because of the guns that so easily flow across the border in that direction. If I was a Mexican I would be absolutely furious at the hypocrisy. Play fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Aug 30, 2015 |

Mr.Bob posted:One of my best friends shot himself in the head while arguing with his wife in the driveway of their house, supposedly to prove some point to her. A close friend of his had just died and he was in a a bad way. He had been doing well for himself as far as I can tell but you never know what is under the surface. I am sad he is gone, but guns are still rad. I think guns are pretty rad but I also think people who buy guns because they imagine themselves as the hero in a shootout, along with a great number of other people who buy guns, would be a lot better off (and the rest of us would also be better off) if they did not have any guns and instead maybe just limited themselves to firing loaned range weapons. Basically, I am okay with guns, but I would much prefer people like various cheeses did not have access to them.

I shot skeet at an olympic range with some wonderful match grade shotguns (I think they might have been Perazzis I dont remember), it was a fun time shared between friends, came out with lovely hearing in my left ear for the next 12 hours. But gently caress the faintest idea of pointing it at a person and knowingly pulling the trigger. People, regular sidewalk using, dog walking people, talking about 'Keeping one chambered, just in case' is just such a bad loving idea that I cant help but just laugh at it and them. It says so much about a person and it without a doubt colors their perception of everyone around them. Also handguns* are poo poo and not rad. That arent long-barrel revolvers.

If the idea of actually using your gun on another person, even in a justified situation, excites rather than horrifies you, you are the worst person to be carrying around a weapon. And I would say this trait applies to a large amount of gun owners, especially the ones that are the most militant in defending their obsession/hobby. I'm confused right now because right wing folk are crowing about the recent shooter that he "passed a background check" as if that's somehow a point in THEIR favor. When in reality all it points towards is our backgrounds check system and gun purchase verification/gun tracking systems being absolute poo poo and lives being lost because of it.

Hahaha I mean I can forgive the lowercase username jab, but what the hell are you talking about? I don't want to shoot anyone if there is any way to deescalate the situation, but if some rear end in a top hat jumps me and starts trying to pound my head in, I'm going to blast his dumb rear end. Carrying with a round in the chamber is considered standard operating procedure for concealed carry and I can't believe you're wringing your hands over it. It's what they taught in the class.

Is it possible to make a scultpure out of bullets that you shoot into bullets? like you start with 1 bullet as the base, then shoot that, and the bullets collide into each other and are lodged. Step two, you shoot the doubullet with a third bullet. After that, you shoot it a fourth time, and keep doing it changing your firing position to make a scultpure-like bullet amalgamation?

If I was a Mexican I would be absolutely furious at the hypocrisy. The number of guns flowing into Mexico from the US really isn't that large, or at least not as large as the media blitz was making it out to be years back. The headline grabbing statistics about 90% of cartel guns recovered found to be from the US originated from the ATF (before Fast & Furious) and were only based on the subset of recovered guns the Mexican government had submitted to the ATF for tracking. Of course the Mexican government (intelligently) only submitted guns to the ATF for tracking that they already suspected might be from the US based on manufacturer, serial #, etc. and that subset ended up only including something like a fifth of the total guns they recovered. That's without even going into the issue that even out of the guns linked back to the US some may have been purchased legally from US manufacturers/vendors by the Mexican authorities before mysteriously falling off the back of a truck or whatever. Either way, in the end the US was only supplying the majority of a small fraction of the recovered cartel guns, with the vast bulk of the recovered guns coming from the Mexican authorities and the armories of various countries in South America. Even at a low percent it's still something the US authorities need to deal with and something the Mexican government should be upset about - particularly given the ATF's behavior in Fast & Furious.

I think we're at the part where we talk about how many cars/doctors kill people, which will be countered by the claim cars/doctors are an essential part of modern life. A few fringe posters will disagree and propose banning or regulating cars/doctors. Someone will compare guns on private property to cars on private property. The topic will then change to backyard swimming pools, which are both unnecessary and kill way more kids than guns do. A new entrant will then bring up an already-settled claim from 10 pages back, using discredited data, and the dance will begin again.
