If they suddenly made guns illegal I'm still keeping my shotgun because he's right in that if a "bad guy" is motivated enough they'll find a way to get a gun (legally or illegally). It should be really fricken difficult to get and own a gun legally though imo. Who is talking about removing your shotgun? Even most far left nuts know they're useful tools, especially out in the woods. But why does anyone need an AK or a large caliber cannon that I hear shot from time to time across the valley. I just laugh at how much that "fun" round cost them (a few beers) and listen to my dogs howl back... Edited March 29, 2023 by redtail hawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is common ground to be found between confiscating all the guns and letting children’s corpses pile up in our classrooms. I don’t want to take people’s guns. I’m not sure a ban on the AR-15 would do much. Many people in my family have guns. If I didn’t live in a city, I’d probably have one too. A big part of the problem is that the NRA went from an organization that promoted gun safety to the lobbying arm of the gun manufacturers. We need people with gun expertise to be a productive part of the conversation about this or we’re either going to get clunky, ineffective laws from people who don’t grasp all the details or we’ll do nothing and kids will keep dying. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ferguson forever Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) https://anthonyarms.com/gun/how-much-does-ammo-cost/ can't afford gas. Can't afford a war on the gov't: https://anthonyarms.com/gun/how-much-does-ammo-cost/ A .700 Nitro Express (17.8x89mm) caliber round, such as the one used on an H & H 700 Nitro Express Rifle, will set you back about $80 to $120 for a single round, not a box! This large-caliber ammunition is only used for large game hunting. So always keep in mind that the bigger the caliber, the more expensive it is.

NATIONALLY. anyone wishing to carry a gun outside the home illegally should be terrified of getting caught, let alone using one in a crime. instead we have appearance tickets and people routinley walking out of jail with no real consequence. just avoid pulling the trigger in certain areas and its routine. yet gang violence, stray bullets, gun being the first go response to aggression in our society and culture. what fixes that besides bringing the hammer down on the crime before it can happen aka bring a SLEDGE hammer down on violent criminals that routinely have no issue walking around with a gun in their pocket or its just a waiting game as they go back into their communities to obtain another one to terrorize or worse the next victim. you can take all guns from people and all your left with is criminals that never cared about laws in the first place and still have gov officials that seem ok with slapping those people on the wrist. waiting to see them again under more tragic circumstances. are they trying to raise rates to make a better argument for universal gun control? at this point, after seeing the usual rap sheets of murders. sure seems like it. so we can ultimately take "assualt weopons" or more from law abiding citizens. THEN and only THEN will leftists finally realize there's still gun violence. like i said, the regulated states haven't taught that lesson. hey we need to stop gun violence, we should get alot tougher on illegal carry! because there is nowhere else to turn or blame at that point. all i want to know is why are they waiting as lives are lost RIGHT NOW? id like someone to answer that. that wont prevent the tragedy we just saw but it would save ALOT of others.

That alone doesn't fix it when parents teach kids to blast shotguns from the hip and laugh when their spouse falls from the recoil of a double barrel 12 gauge load of buck shot.

The gun lobby has completely perverted the narrative and created a myth around guns. Heller was not the first rulling on that. And the fact DC never even changed after the rulling is something. From the federalist papers to English canon law. Oh yeah. And that Oxford comma. Would add the machine gun ban of 36 also re iterated the private ownership of weapons when it was challenged. 3 hours ago, redtail hawk said: That alone doesn't fix it when parents teach kids to blast shotguns from the hip and laugh when their spouse falls from the recoil of a double barrel 12 gauge load of buck shot.

Just because you see something on Twitter doesn't make it a popular opinion. Especially after an incident when people are being ultra hyperbolic. Every progressive poster here has simply called for reasonable gun control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
