What Jon D for Dickhead Corzine probably doesn't grasp is that shit like that is already illegal in the people's republic of zoo jersey anyway. NJ's ban was used as the model for the It's A Crime, Bill. This is a move to ban gangbanger weapons of choice like the .500 S&W revolver, the .454 Casull and other similar firearms. Next to go will be those evil T/C Contender "portable assault sniper pistols".... that state needs an enema.

owned/own a couple Not the happiest with Colt due to labor and politics...and nonstandard pins Bushmaster is OK, Rock River Arms and DSA very good, not a big DPMS fan for customer service reasons. Whatever you get, keep it clean, find magazines that work reliably(99% of the problem with an AR, in my experience) I would not suggest using Wolf or other Russian 5.56mm ammo due to the laquered steel cases. Surplus GI ammo is pretty easily found, and yes you want a 5.56mm chamber in yours so you can shoot 5.56mm and .223. Some Olympic Arms ARs had .223 chambers as well as Bushy and Colts having one or the other (I believe). Good luck with it, they become an addiction.

Kevin, I may be getting my job back, hope against hope. Please lets keep trying on this.

Kevin, Work kicked me in the ass about as hard as it could today, since today turned out to be my last day. I'm still interested in the program this summer, gonna have to do it on my own $. I hate Mondays.

Yup, Kennedy nailed it. It's hard to get some people to understand that select- fire AKs aren't the deer hunting weapon of choice, nor what your local Crips rob stores with. Most crime is committed with cheap/stolen POS handguns, and .gov studies bear this out. Yet, those who can't fathom why anybody would want one of "those" guns, or any for that matter, feel the need to ban anything remotely politically correct. Makes me want to vomit.

Kevin, fair enough, work is kinda kicking me in the ass at the moment too. I'll keep my eyes open. Thanks

I looooove to piss off the libbos in the college town here by calling it Rhodesia...

Zenister, I am waiting on Kevin to get back to me with particulars, he's pretty busy at the moment. When I know more, I'll share.

What about the 152mm chemical arty rounds that the Iraqis had (and one injured an EOD tech, so no whining about "no Iraqi wmds)? The Sovs made 152mm nuke rounds too. they're easily vehicle portable...if you can get it here.

I don't suppose there's any chance of a mass escape attempt through the minefield between gitmo and the rest of cuba?

Jesse, The question is, where does it end? I think you'd probably find that the majority of those gun owners bent over backwards to comply with the laws. The important thing you're not exactly seeing is that criminals are criminals because they break laws. Rapists don't care about rape laws, murderers about laws against murder, etc. Why punish law abiding gun owners?

Glock 18 (like a 17 with the fun switch) Stetchkin (fuuuuuuuuuuuuun) Beretta 93R (tuuuuuuuurd)

remember, those are the weapons of choice for criminals.... I live in a curio and relic state now, or else it would be "how long do I have to save for an M16?" Knob Creek is a hell of a place to go. Anybody who goes and doesn't testdrive a Thompson doesn't have a hair on their @$$.

and the gf wonders why we aren't going to honeymoon in Aust.

IIRC, there is some provision in most states/ fed gov for restoration of 2nd Amendment rights in individual cases, but the ATF just doesn't fund their end of it=nullification. As far as what the 2nd should cover, my vote goes up to medium crew-served. Stuff like M240s, M2s, Mk 19s, 81mm mortars, AT4s, etc. Nice to dream, isn't it?

Got a little farther on this at work today, need to know what the class size would be.

that should have been 26 year old Sarah Brady hee hee

I'd love to see somebody from DC tell the UN that they were trespassing and they had 14 days to evacuate their property for violating lease terms or something similar. Oh, to dream.

Best I ever heard it explained was that the concept was much like that of a bucket brigade, to wit: Fire breaks out in a building, we all gather our buckets and stand to, to put the fire out. This requires that we train, and maintain equipment and physical readiness. Something requiring some shooting breaks out. We all gather our hardware and stand to, to solve the problem. This requires that we train, and maintain equipment and physical readiness. I explained that basic concept to my girlfriend's super liberal sorority sisters (I'm a little older than they are and moved from an anti-gun to pro-gun state) and the lights just came on. I really got their attention when I explained to them that the 2nd was additionally another check and balance. IE: how much crap can a tyrannical government shove down the throats of an armed populace? Those looks were priceless.

I heard anecdotally about a city (New Orleans) that sued the company that just happened to be making their PD's service pistols at the time...and the teat went dry. I believe the company in question was Beretta. Good idea, nice middle finger back at those biting the hands that protect them. See also Ronnie Barret's middle finger to the LAPD.

And another old joke... "Did I ever tell you about the worst blowjob I ever got? It was GREAT!" Fella should be a little more appreciative that he got his knob bobbed.

Anybody else find the victim to-be's name ironic? "Police said 26-year-old acted in self-defense ..." hahahahahahahahahahahah

Actually Jazz, I'm right there with you on the 2nd Amendment and so forth...I just wish they had found a better name for the agency. Department of Domestic Security? Domestic Security Agency? Something other than "Homeland". Ick.

I find it kinda frightening that 65 years ago or so, the 3rd Reich had a little thing called the Reichs Heimats Sicherheits Amt or Reich Homeland Security Office. Reinhard Heidrich was in charge. Things that make you go hmmmmm. Anybody else noticed that things went a lot better for us when we still had a WAR Department?

I can think of a supposedly "not for profit" .gov contractor that needs an enema, what with the majority of employees grossing $5.50/hr and the co. president grossing $630,000 before bennies and bonuses..... And while you're cutting fat, take a long hard look at BATF. Talk about an entity that has grown far too big for its britches.
