The Gun Control Bandwagon

Just get an M1A.....   

Those only take 5 round clips.

Florida senate rejects assault weapon ban, votes to arm teachers, raise age for purchase of firearms to 21, and ban bump stocks.

At least some people have some sense. 

However, it would be nice if people would realize that we don't need to arm teachers, we just need to stop disarming them.

Funny.   Mine can take 5 rnd., 10 rnd., 20 rnd., or 30 rnd. magazines.   Yours must be an oddball.

I said "clips".  I have never seen any clips but the 5 round stripper clips for the M14.

Picky.   

I've never seen any clips for the M1A.   Yes mine has provision for the loading using them .... but I've  never seen them.
And anyway,  they're used to load the magazine ---- so THEY DON'T COUNT!

Interesting video: https://youtu.be/8OeJ-8v472A

Curiously, the link was sent to me by my good friend, Rand Paul. I guess in my dotage my memory must be failing, because I can't recall ever having met Mr. Paul. Nonetheless, he says I'm his good friend, so who am I to doubt him.

But it's an interesting video nonetheless.

I always use clips to load my M1A.

I hope that isn't what you are putting in your M1A, if it is we need to talk.

You lucky devil you!  You have an M1A  that takes 5.56mm. .

Blame gunbroker. That was the first pic that popped up for 7.62 battle packs

Fake news. 

[MechAg94]

I still have some old surplus 308 ammo that came in bandoliers with 5 round stripper clips loaded.  The bandoliers were packed in ammo cans.

I guess that picture didn't want to work.

Holy Carp! Did Sannon Watts really say this?

The problem with America right now is that people are making gun laws based on emotion, not data.

Emotions based on facts! So it's alright.

NPR article on the "fraud" that is the Second Amendment.

The "fraud" term was used by Warren Burger. I actually didn't know much about him, but looking stuff up, it appears he was quite the proto-RINO. Or at least a country club conservative. Apparently Nixon got what was coming to him for appointing Warren, because it was a Warren ruling that expedited Nixon's exist.

Even that article perpetuates a fraud;  that the 2A   was historically viewed as a "collective right."  According to Stephen Halbrook in his treatise "THAT EVERY MAN BE ARMED"  the concept of it being a collective right  dates back only to 1941,  due to a court case which itself was a misinterpretation of Constitutional Law.  Halbrook claims there is not ANY  evidence from the time of America's founding that the Founding Fathers  intended it to be  collective right.  Indeed, Mr. Halbrook contends that there is NO SUCH THING AS A COLLECTIVE RIGHT.

Well, he was a Quaker.

I can't believe that besides the fact it's a gov ID, that none of the comments mentioned that it's relatively a burden to get, with a much more extensive review than any other state ID. I mean, you guys in TX still have to get printed, right?

If it were me, I'd just be making it clear to the knucklehead reporter and every sheep that reads him just how much background checking goes into a CCW. Because I'm pretty sure those people think you get one like you're buying a lottery ticket or something. If any of them had to jump through a tenth the hoops that someone does for a CCW (even in an "easy" state) they would be marching in the streets crying about the unfairness of it all.

If they keep chipping away at the Bill of Rights they'll need permits to be journalists.

I'm sure a lot of them would be fine with that. There, after all, ought to be some way of keeping every knuckle-dragging conservative from spreading his facts fake news micro-aggressions from every corner of the internet.
