Re: Fwck gun control
 

This is what i was saying earlier about the media and brain washing.

To me i see this as a guy insecure to the point of crazy, yet rather than what i'd consider the usual reply (i.e. seek a mental health expert) instead he's encouraged.

Not trying to be a jerk here, but as a guy who's travelled the world and has never once in his civilian life carried a concealed weapon.

It just seems crazy to me that a person could be THAT insecure that they wouldn't go anywhere unless they had a gun with them.

It's like basing your life and restricting the movements of you and your family for a 1 in a million chance that you might be frightened.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Bullshit.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

The point is if gun sales are restricted it DOES prevent criminals getting them.
Sure a determined crim could probably find a gun with a few bullets, but for most that'd be extremely difficult.

A semi automatic assault rifle, no way jose.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

yes, IMO its a ban on its being out of not in use.....

the weapons you mention, they are legal now, so yes I continue to support that.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

But they have to be SEVERELY restricted, almost to the point of banning them entirely. That is not what we want.

Plus our close proximity to Mexico means that we can ban all guns sales nationwide and they will still come across the border and be available to anyone who wants one.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Speaking as a person whose job revolves around explosives and explosive detection i can say in my professional opinion and experience you are wrong.

Constructing a bomb of any kind is difficult, constructing one that works and works as it should is extremely difficult.

It would need months if not years of planning, reading testing and stock piling.

As many of the components are on watch lists he would have had to have been extremely cunning, intelligent and deceitful to create such a device.

FACTS are though he used guns.
Could have, would have, should have are all pointless, it's HE DID what we are talking about and ways to possibly prevent something like this from happening again.

I can buy ammonium nitrate on Amazon for christ sake. I can buy all the diesel fuel I want. Guess what ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel equal, ANFO. Gee I am sure a detononation device could not be figured out.:roll:

You also talk about "locked up" and safes like they are some impenetrable fortress. Guys on other sites have had break ins with stolen safes and even safes that have been broken into in their home. Vehicle safes that have been broken into or ripped completely out of the vehicle. Immediate family members in the same household often know the safe combos or know where to find them. I am sure I can't get into a safe with the full machine shop I have access to.

Gotta love the antis, they always have the answers. But in reality they do not know jack.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

well I dont know how many "hairy" situations you have been in, but I have been in several.

I have had weapons pulled on me before, and I have pulled them before.

I searched///looked the uk gets contrabands weapons all teh time
russia, iran, izreal....I figured as much

guns are readily available for anyone with cash, and ill entent.
and with stricter laws like yours, come the invention of weapons like the cell phone gun....thanks..

Bottom line if someone wants to do harm, they will. Whether it be a rifle, knife, broken bottle, brick or handful of rocks to stone someone. And not the good kinda stoned either.

People do it, people with a history of instability should be more closely watched. Especially in the vicinity of the aforementioned tools of violence.

But the simple fact that some are placing a soap box on top of kids' graves to further their agenda is the disgusting part.

I was there, I lived it.( though not as close as others )...look up the oklahoma federal building.....
it was not a sufisticated device.....it was devestaing though.

attackek children too ( I guess maybe that was the 1st time kids had been targeted like this )?
at least the 1st time I can recall

Re: Fwck gun control
 

I'm sorry mate but i refuse to continue discussing this with you any more.

Anyone who believes all firearms should be unrestricted has opinions just to far from my own to make any discussion on the subject pointless.



Not my intention of suggestion to ban anything, my suggestion was control of licensing, having to have a gun safe to get a license and the police coming to your home to check the security and safe before issuing a license for said weapon.

My post was just a response.

With regards the Mexico and guns, it's actually the other way around.
Mexican gangs import thousands of guns yearly from the US as Texas has extremely loose gun laws compared to Mexico.

I watched a documentary where the Mexican police followed the history of seized guns used in crimes and over 90% were bought from the US

Roll your eyes as much as you want, the reality is you have absolutely no idea what your talking about other than you've seen on TV.

I am talking from personal experience that it's not that easy.

Ohhh and try ordering enough supplies from Amazon to build a bomb and the knock at the door won't be the delivery man it's be the feds ;)

Again where is your logic?

If crims break into 100 houses without safes and guns loose, how many guns will they get = 100

If crims break into 100 homes WITH safes how many guns do you think they'll get = 10?

Just as a point of reference 10 crims with guns is better than 100 crims with gun.

Fact is though in this particular case if the guns were locked up and parents were responsible gun owners we probably wouldn't be having this chat.

Who's anti?

I'm not suggesting banning anything or anti anything.

I shoot and hunt and enjoy it.

I would just prefer to shoot and hunt knowing it's not at the expense of kids lives in the future.

If folks can't act responsibly with guns, which it's obvious they can't then SOMETHING needs to be done.
As doing nothing will just see history repeated again and again and again.

Is that what you want to see, more of these tragedy's, just because folks go stark raving crazy once you talk about having gun safes?

Re: Fwck gun control
 

There is nothing wrong with semi auto rifles.
Doing away with being able to go buy a new M4 fixes nothing.
Guns do not shoot themselves.
Dumb ASS people are the problem.

Some people do not have a clue.
I shot a pistol match a couple of weeks ago in 2 different classes with 2 different pistols.
One that holds 17plus 1 and the other was a single stack STI 1911 that holds 10plus 1.
there was 4 courses of fire for the day and each course I had a extra reload with the single stack and was only a couple seconds slower for the day total.
Reloads are not that hard or slow so what the hell does limiting round count accomplish?

Next I keep seeing people say that a AR15/M4 is not good for hunting.
Can someone tell me why the hell not.
They are damn accurate from in your face targets to several hundred yards and they have plenty of knock down power in 5.56/223 to take all sorts of small game and in my state legal to take deer.Then you can swap uppers to say my 450 upper and take any game that walks on earth.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Completely agree "thumbsup"

So shouldn't we as a society try and at least LIMIT the amount of harm these people can do?

Don't see anyone on a soap box meself, just people trying to come to terms with it and some discussing the best ways to prevent it happening again.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

I think we should start spanking our kids when they need a little spat.
We need to start keeping score in Teeball.
Make kids responsible for their actions.
Teach them nothing is free you have to work for it.



I still think Mental Health is the fix and everyone knowing the signs. More talk less drugs.
If people hear some body talking about doing something crazy, people need to tell some body.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Point i'm making i if said dumb ass people didn't have access to said M4's a LOT more kids would have made it home that night

Re: Fwck gun control
 

We use roughly 8,000,000,000 lbs of explosives in the US every year even if you can't make it you can get it one way or another. BTW I used amazon as an example there are so many sources it is not even funny. Again the US is not Europe.(thank god for that) Those exploding gun targets (tannerite) that I am sure your masters in Europe don't allow you to have we can get those all over. The components for tannerite are legal to buy. And I know exactly what "personal experience" you claim to have. LOL.

I just want to answer the question as to why an M$/AR15 is bad for hunting. Dudes, I don't like lead in my meat. 5.56 round is meant to mangle, not penetrate. Gross.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

The AR platform is more suited for hunting now than it ever was. With more recent rounds like the .300blk, 6.5 grendel, .50 beuwolf, .458socom, .30ossm, and the various WSSM cartridges as well as the various wildcats it is highly viable for hunting."thumbsup"

I'm a dad, and a gun owner. This event has put me in a situation that I thought id never be faced with. Should I send my 9 year old son to school in a bullet proof vest, or ar-15? Really? I live in the greatest country on earth and the citizens of that country can't even have enough decency to follow even rules of engagement? Killing Children? Common..
My standpoint is control the idiots buying guns. I like my weapons because I pay taxes to own them, taxes to live in the USA, and I have the right to shoot back at anyone who wants to take that away! My solution to help my son, I'm sewing a ballistics plate into his backpack. :cool:

Why have a civilization anymore, if we are no longer interested in being civilized??

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Are you really that dumb?
Funny, I don't ever remember hearing in a southern baptist church that you can "buy" forgiveness. Or even that repentance absolved you from the consiquences of your actions. I know it's the internet, but just because you feel the need to band wagon bash doesn't mean you wont get called out when you're wrong.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

not really, heroin has been illegal for years, yet its easliy bought on the streets, some say its easier to get than buying a gun

Re: Fwck gun control
 

generally speaking you should only ever need 1 bullet to take down a deer, 2 if you're a bad shot. Why would you need a semi auto rifle that holds more than (pick any number more than 5). If you crack off a half dozen rounds at an animal to take it down you might as well leave it because there's a good chance there's not much good meat left which is pretty much the point of hunting. Don't shoot it if you're not going to eat it, unless it's varmints or bear control. What I'm getting at is there are better tools for that particular job. 223 round is also a bit light for most deer depending size and what you're hunting in, for instance thick brush. Using a 223 on an elk or moose sounds like a bad idea. Wiki 223, apparently it was developed to kill people (specifically) and was a good choice for varmints, not hunting (big game). With that in mind I've heard of someone taking a deer down with a pellet gun, was found on his neighbors front lawn the next day; true story.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

my 1st deer gun was a 22 mag ( I was 9 and my dad knew it wouldnt knock me out of teh tree :) )....223 aint to light:roll:
just cuz you have a 10rd clip, dont mean you need it for deer.
But I have come across fox, coyote, lynx, bobcat, hog, ect many times on my way to/from the blind.
plus I stalk my deer usually, so I come across all kinds of sht. even a few pouchers

and turtles,,,,,cant pass up a turtle

Re: Fwck gun control
 

1. The media and their brainwashing is in an effort to support the gun control b.s., not the other way around. And so far, it is working on the sheeple.

2. Since you have never carried a concealed weapon, what makes you think you have the right to judge someone for doing so? It is about security not insecurity...

3. It is for the exact opposite of restricting movement of our families.

4. You don't even live in this country, so please stop comparing our environment to Europe's. You are trying to compare apples to oranges.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Out of curiosity, how heavy are the deer you're hunting? You're right though, a 223 will work, but it isn't my weapon of choice. Where I've been hunting there are lots of trees. Tracking something through the bush isn't my idea of fun. I shoot for the neck and it drops where it stands. 100-200 yard shot usually. I use a 30-06 Sako bolt with 165gr. 308 is popular but more and more guys are using bigger magnums which are fine for moose and elk but on a deer is overkill.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

our deer are not big, usually field dress out around 150 on average
180 if your lucky..

I shot for the neck usually also, and not alot of llead is needed if properly placed.
Have droped wild hogs with my 22mag.....running shot for the front arm pit.
same hog, 22 wouldnt even penetrate the skin off its shoulder...but the pit is soft.
found this out as we was hunting jack rabbits one night....spot lighting, came across some hogs
actually the 1st hogs I had ever seen....opened up with no luck...
my dad said time it for the pit, I did, and she droped.

my shots vary
if I catch em in the thicket....25 yds close, personal, and peak of excitment IMO
you cant blink, fart, hell even snot runing out your nose will give you away.

if I catch em as the are entering/leaving the woods.....50-ish
but I often see em across hill tops, my longest shot was stepped off by 3 people
all fall around 350 yds...standing shot, leaning on tree...buck fever in the knees.


I went from 22 mag....to 30-30....then 243...I have found a home with my 30-06.

I stalk cuz I cant stand siting still when its cold...when its really dry like it is now, and lots of leaves ae on teh ground..stand hunting is my olny choice.

but in a wet season, the leaves are soft and dont make much noise..
It can takke me a hr to walk 30-40 yds in thickets...
I have actually goot to stalk 2 grups of turkkey one day...2 groupd of about
20 each..I learend alot about turkey that day.
for one, they cant pass up a pile of hay, and they are dumber than I originally thought.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Personally I prefer to hunt with a pistol and when i do hunt which is not much that is what i use more than a rifle for big game.
But as said above the AR platform is a great hunting choice.
Take the 450 for instance it moves a 250gr projectile at a little over 1500fps out of a AR.So that to me sounds like a great large game round in heavy brush or out to 200yrds or a little more.
The AR is a great universal gun for way more reasons than its original design was built for.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

Absolute rubbish and if you believe that then your obsession with firearms is clouding your judgement to the point of insanity.

If this guy could only get his hand on a .22 or even a 38 a hell of a LOT more kids would have gone home that night.

If he only had access to a double barrelled shotgun then the teachers could have easily overpowered a skinny little kid like this in-between reloading.

I don't understand the logic here.

I'm offering an opinion that due to the amount of nutters going round the US shooting folks with high powered big mag guns it might be time to think about doing something to try and prevent a tragedy like this occurring again.

Yet for some reason the only argument you folks can come back with is some rubbish about explosives.

What planet are you from?

This guy did NOT use explosives
From the evidence i've seen so far he did not plan this, it just kicked off.

You've then got other ops seemingly coming to the conclusion that because they were near enough to feel a explosion their knowledge is more than someone that's been working around explosives for the last 20 years.

:lmao:

I'm not talking about explosives as
a/ It has NOTHING to do with this tragedy
b/ It's not the responsible thing to do to talk about construction explosives on a public forum that kids read
c/ It has NOTHING to do with guns

Seems that the only response against a unemotional and logical opinion that keeping guns locked up when at home is to talk absolute bollox and to exaggerate that bollox until it becomes ridiculous.


Come on guys lets play grown ups here.

If NOTHING is done then your countries kids and innocent victims are going to suffer and die again and again and again.

If NOTHING is done then this sort of thing IS going to happen again, be it next week or next year.


It is NOT much of an inconvenience to have to apply for a license
It's NOT an inconvenience or great expense to buy a gun safe
It's NOT much of an inconvenience to have a cop come round to check your house security and gun safe
It's absolutely NO inconvenience to lock your guns up when not in use

To stomp your feet and act like a 9 year old kid who thinks someone is taking his candy away is NOT how a grown up should behave.

It's this absolutely selfish attitude that's going to be directly responsible for the next tragedy.

Stop being selfish and only worrying about your hobbies, stop being a little kid and stamping your feet.
Grow up and accept that the society we live in is fooooked up and we NEED to do something to prevent weapons of mass murder getting into these twats hands again.

I'm just a Brit offering an opinion from my own experiences, it's YOUR kids and family members that are under this threat.

Grow up and take some responsibility, the glory days of very slightly responsible nutters has gone, you NEED to try and restrict these nutters getting their hands on weapons of mass murder.

Sure they'll find another way to kill, but without mass murder weapons it would have been 15 or 10 more kids that would have goten to go home that night.

Again i'm not suggesting banning anything.
Just tighter licensing, better house security, and keeping guns in safes.
None are much of an inconvenience are they really compared to the cost of lives?

Re: Fwck gun control
 

So an accurate gun using the same rounds as a standard hunting gun is not a good choice? Sure it is.

5.56 NATO = .223 hunting round
7.62 NATO = .308 hunting round

Those rounds came FROM the hunting rounds, they were not created and approved by NATO then became available.

Not to mention the ability to get multiple optics and personalize a gun to we

The biggest fallacy in your posts is you are saying Assault Rifle...then trying to combine the semi-automatic to make an impact. Fact is to be an assault rifle the gun needs to be an automatic or burst fire. Any purchased AR15 or similar is semi automatic, and to get an actual assault rifle you need a class 3 license which registers the owner and guns.

Finally, before you jump on the wonderful world of being wrong...AR in AR15 has nothing to do with Assault Rifle like many believe. It comes from when it was being designed by Armalite, based on the companies name.

Re: Fwck gun control
 

I do believe its you that do not get it.
Do you have a clue how fast a 38 revolver can be reloaded and the damage that round can cause?
Or how fast any 1911,glock,or many other handguns can be reloaded.
Its not the style of guns fault it the idiot behind it.So doing away with certain guns is not going to fix anything.

As for someone coming into my house to see whats in my safe not a chance.Its none of there business.
