I have weapons
I don't take pics of them
I don't brag about them
I don't show them to everyone
If you get a kick out of showing everyone your arms, you're probably not mature enough to own them.

[Choptop]

Nedro, lighten up francis.

Firearms are just like motorcycles to me, toys, if they are something more to you, perhaps yer the one who shouldnt own them.....

sitting at home, alone, stroking your weapons... "... no one will every see you My Precious...."

God I hope you're kidding!

[Choptop]

Nope not kidding.

Take them out of the safe, go to the range, have fun, come home, put them back in the safe.

Take them out to play, clean em and put em away when I'm done. Just like the track/race bikes. No different.

Propper handling, propper training, propper use. Sure you can kill with them if you want to, but you can do that with anything. Part of the propper use of them is NOT killing with them, unless you are hunting

They are toys, something you get enjoyment out of using... a toy.

Not saying you handle or use them whilly-nilly... (see the propper handling, use... ect. part). But they are nothing dark and mystic to be kept locked away in the dark.

Good shout nedro... People that want to brag and show off about firearms are sad little shites who need to get a life, like you said they are for responsible adults not dopey attention seekers...

"LOOK AT ME", "LOOK AT ME"!!!!!!!

[eeeeek]

Nedro: Look... still has the old tag on, never even shot it.
Choptop: [points his finger] You've never shot...?
Nedro: Don't touch it!
Choptop: We'll I wasn't going to touch it, I was just pointing at it.
Nedro: Well... don't point! It can't be shot.
Choptop: Don't point, okay. Can I look at it?
Nedro: No. no. That's it, you've seen enough of that one.

Guns don't kill. Only toys and unloaded guns kill.

[lizard]

Hey nedro and hammer, a lot of BARFers own firearms. I don't know why you've interpreted my post as bragging, just sharing one of my interests with fellow BARFers.

The inclusion of the meat cleaver in the pic was for self-deprecation purposes.

[Billery]

My guns are paper-punchers or bird-hurters. I'm not particularly proud of them as devices. Kinda like my bikes: The beauty is in how you can use them.

That being said, what a cool target rifle, choptop!

Hammer, if you're into gun control or just don't like guns, start a new thread. It seems to me that this thread was originally an honest thread for those BARFers that have a hobby in guns, just like the threads in this forums for cat enthusiasts, digital camera hobbyists, etc.

[budbandit]

My current firearm is a toy. I don't keep it loaded under the pillow, I don't hunt with it, I don't carry it for protection. I use it to make ragged holes in paper targets down at the range for fun.

I like to look at pictures of cool guns, just like I like to look at pictures of cool watches, bikes, cars and computers, cameras and knives. I think it is cool that people take the time to post such images for the enjoyment of others.

Well, you nailed the shooting ability of the Sac. Co. SO :laughing
Actually, not that bad... there are some good shooters out there. Personally I suck ass with my sidearm, but I'm freaking artist for a scattergun (makes smiley faces with slugs at 50 yards :D).


I could see how some people could take the term "toy" wrong, but in the end, thats weapons are to me. Ya just gotta give them the respect they are due when you play with them. Just like any other "toy"... motorcycle, R/C plane, ski boat, hot rod, archery equipment.... all the same. If you use them propperly, handle them propperly and heed the propper training, they are enjoyable to use, and to me that puts them into the "toy" category. Others may call thenm something else. But they are nothing dark, mysteroius, or anything to be afraid of (again, when handled and used properly).

Any hobby/activity can turn ugly when you dont give it the respect its due.

[Monkey_Boy]

Choptop,

You'll never convice those afraid of guns of anything. In fact, there is no reason to fear guns at all - their fear is mis-directed. Maybe one day they will see that truth. It is people who can be dangerous. Just ride your bike on the street - heck, what else do you need to know.

I have a Mini 14, 9mm Beretta, and a few other small caliber toys. For self defense, these are not toys at all. But plinking is fun, as is just shooting holes in a paper target.

I am always amazed how anyone can be afraid of a gun. It is totally irrational.

[Climber]

I don't see anything wrong with choptop saying that he thinks of his gun as a toy, people like him aren't the problem.

The problem is those people who buy a new gun and who are just itching to use it on somebody else. One example of that is the person who carries on in his car just wishing for somebody to give them an excuse to use it!

I've been shooting since I was 5 years old and really enjoy shooting. I've also maintained that ability over the years just in case I ever need those skills. But, IMHO anybody who wishes that somebody would give them the excuse to feel justified in using it just isn't right in the head and shouldn't be allowed to own a gun, because they very well may just rationalize a situation which wouldn't warrant such action to be one that justifies it.

BTW, that's an awesome weapon, choptop!! What kind of accuracy are you getting at a thousand yards?

[ScorpioVI]

Toys, Tools, whatever. People buy guns for different reasons, just like people buy bikes for different reasons. Some guys buy guns to go to the range and make holes in paper, some are exercising their constitutional and natural rights, some use it to feed themselves, some all of the above. Some guys buy bikes to go to the track, some guys buy bikes to get to work, some go on dirt, some do all of the above. Same difference.

Some of you guys need to get over the "my way is the right way" mentality.

When I see pictures of guns being posted on the internet, I get a warm happy feeling. No, I don't get sexual satisfaction from a gun or a picture thereof. And I may even be happy because I'm admiring the craftsmanship, various tactical gidgets, and the awesome destructive power of the subject...

But the ultimate reason that "pictures of guns on internet" makes me happy because it shatters hoplophobes notions of what guns and gun-owners are. A normal all-American male can look at a firearm like Choptop's and go, "fuckin cool!". A hoplophobe will probably piss his pants. Either way, we're putting guns in the mainstream of conciousness, and it's no longer this secret little evil tool of Columbine-esque destruction. Somebody on BARF who previously had little/no opinion on guns, or maybe even a slight distaste will see the guns posted by Lizard and go, "huh, that guy has guns? he's cool, met him at a meet a couple of weeks ago". Now the gun-owner is no longer the faceless, sociopathic, child-molesting misfit (let's ignore the fact that Lizard is all of the above for a minute :twofinger) and becomes the average next-door neighbor.

A true hoplophobe, eh, they're lost causes, write them off. But of the 40% non-gun-owning population of the USA, a thread like this may spark their curiousity of guns and gun-owners. Good or bad, who knows. Well, this thread already left a bad impression thanks to nedro and Hammer. But other threads, there might be hope.

nedro dude, you need to chill out!

You're starting to sound like it's his fault that there were 3 murders in Oakland on Saturday! Instead of letting your phobia of guns to write your posts for you, you should read what people are writing!

If you can't do that, you should take the advice of one of the other posters and just stay out of the thread if you can't contribute in a positive manner. You've said your peace, it was noted, but now you're just trying to shove your personal belief's down everybody elses throats and it's not appreciated. ;)

[nedro]

Oh, the HPD stole it from you?
Or was it stolen then recovered?
Just because they found it before it was used in another crime just means you were lucky. It doesn't mean it was O.K.
Jump to your own damned conclusions.

So, let me get this straight....

You'd like to dictate to us how we view our weapons, the specific purposes that we use them for and precisely how we store them or at least conform to your view of that?

Do you also have similar narrow opinions on how people should ride their sportbikes? :confused

[Nighthawk454]

This is, without a doubt, the finest knife I've ever owned. Opens easily with one hand, has stayed sharp all these years, and performs all the tasks I need it to. Since lizard included his cleaver, I'm gonna include my knife, though I've never used it as a weapon, but instead as a do-it-all blade.

Your arguement is invalid. I thought you owned toys, not weapons.
My view of weapons is not a narrow one and is one that is widely accepted. Just not by those shooting each other with their empty guns and toys.

Nor is my views of sportbike riding.

BTW, how much do the bullets cost for that thing you showed a pic of? 50 cal?

.... this thread now sucks.

[Climber]

nedro, let's not do any more 'post whoring' in here.

If you have strong feelings about gun's then the proper place for that is in the 'Kitchen Sink' and I'm sure that if you post a comprehensive starter on your feeling about guns that it would lead to a very good and diverse discussion on people's thoughts on the subject.

<I'm assuming that you're interested in a good discussion on the subject rather than just trying to force your views onto everyone else which will never be constructive with a good portion of the population.>

[nedro]

So how much are the bullets? I heard they were about $5 each.

[eeeeek]

I haven't seen any 50 cal pics yet.

BTW, I was always taught to call them cartridges.

[nedro]

I thought climber's riffle was a 50. Oh well.

[Choptop]

If you mean me... (climber didnt post a pic of a gun), its a .223 .

Ammo cost vary greatly, depending on if its surplus or match.


I had a knife stolen once... shudder......

[budbandit]

Bullets are the projectiles.

Cartridges or rounds are the composite assembly of bullet, casing, primer, propellant and whatever else makes up the catridge in its ready to use state. Tool or toy, it is good to get the terminology right.

FWIW I too am curious about how much .50 cal rounds cost...

None. Havent tried to shoot it that far. The .223 drops QUITE a bit at 1000 yards.

[Choptop]

Surplus .50 can cost as little as about $2/round

it can up to whatever you want to pay from there.

check http://www.cheaperthandirt.com for pretty decent prices on all ammo.

You claim to be some avid gun-owner, yet so far in this thread you have revealed to me:

A) You don't know what an AR-15 is and what caliber it shoots.

B) You call rounds, "bullets", which is something a gunnie does not do, because we know the difference.

Where's that damn BS flag when I need. Bah, this will do:

I took a quick glance at the pic and thought it was a 50. Did not think too many people were using AR15s as sniper rifles. Nor do very many AR15s look like that. But hey, if it makes you feel any better, flame on.

Either way, my policy is "Don't ask, Don't tell!"

[Choptop]

Pssst... here is a hint... AR15's are perfectly legal.

I'll let ya fugure out the where-for's, when-did-you's and how-to's. But it comes down to when the weapon was built and what features it has. This one is perfectly legal and registered.

You state of residence (if you live in the Peoples Republik of Kalifornia) may impact what weapon you can own or build and when/how you do it.

Even at that there are Kali Legal AR's in production

Not 99% of them.

This one is perfectly legal and registered.

Good to hear. However, the majority I've come in contact with are either LEO owned or purchased in places like AZ or NV and brought back across the state border unregistered; unless they're old-timers, which I assumed you are not.

You state of residence (if you live in the Peoples Republik of Kalifornia) may impact what weapon you can own or build and when/how you do it.

CA Penal Code Section 12275-12278, also known as the Roberti-Roos Assault Weapons Control Act of 1989 supersedes the federal law with its general "assault weapon" terminology.

Section 12276.1 states that essentially, if your semiautomatic centerfire rifle has the capability to accept a detachable magazine it may not have: a pistol grip, thumbholes stock, folding stock, grenade or flare launcher, flash suppressor, forward pistol grip, et cetera.

Even at that there are Kali Legal AR's in production

Seriously, name one, other than the FAB-10 (California compliant 10-round stripper clip lower), and you and I will go shopping tomorrow. Seriously.

I've also seen, and taken part in, the essential bastardization of the AR-15 rifle and its variants by hacking off the pistol grip. I'm also pretty sure you can't build a rifle out of pre-ban and register anymore. This was the reason I had my take on an M40 built instead of hassling with an "assault rifle."


Either way, California has far too much retarded legislature.

I'll be moving up to Sac in a few months, we could go to the range and put a few holes in paper. I'll let you shoot mine if you let me shoot yours. :thumbup

Interesting Observation: A member of my family is a gun-hater. He recently got a DUI. How many motorcyclists in this country will be killed by citizens in legal posession of a firearm compared to drunk drivers?

Favorite Bumpersticker: I can't come in to work today, the voices told me to stay home and clean my guns.....:laughing

[Choptop]

well, AR's ARE legal in Kali as long as you purchased the lower reciever before a certain date... I forget when the "original" AR ban in Kali was.... 1997 I think? (the original ban only sited "names" of guns...in 1994 I think, the next one sited features of guns). I just bought a couple of stripped lowers before the ban and stowed them.

HAVING an AR in Kali isnt illegal, as long as it was in the state and registered before the ban.

The only ones that are currently legal to SELL or IMPORT into Kali are the FAB10 and a pump action version.

But, just because its an AR in Kali doesnt mean its illegal.

[AresR6]

I own a gun or two. This is my most recent purchase.

A Mosin Nagant M44, chambered in the potent 7.62x54R. Holds 5 rounds and was a mainstay rifle for many a Finnish, Polish, and Russian rifleman. Yes I have a C & R FFL, so no I am not just some punk kid buying guns at random.

I like a good M-44 if you get a chance get a Steyr M-95 sweet straight pull and smooth. Kinda like a Schmidt-Rubin.. you can get either rifle for around 145

[Choptop]

C & R FFL is the ticket baby. Got me one, and its been worth it. Ya get great pricing on some cool guns.

Had me a Mosin/Nagant M28 for while. Nice gun. GREAT shooter. I'd like to get a 91/30 and sporterize it.

Hey sprocket, could you rebarrel one and add a bitchin looking (and good working) Muzzle break?

If you get a kick out of showing everyone your arms, you're probably not mature enough to own them.

This is actually a well worded post for a reason.

The second reason I wouldn't do so... Some of what I have may or may not be liegal in CA. So I wouldn't want others to know either.

Not to metion would take up too much time to go and photograph my stockpile. That ranges from handguns to heavy artillery, classic to cutting edge (litterally).

To each their own. I have nothing im not supposed to. I do things by the book. My guns are not toys. I am not a toymaker. I take my work seriously. Please do not attack what is slowly becoming a full time profession for me. It takes a long time to become a proficient Gunsmith. It is something that I enjoy doing.To see someone's reaction when you build them a fine sporting rifle from what initially was virgin metal . Is well worth the reward. I have put many dollars into Lathes ,Mills, Tooling ,Dies,Fixtures,Materials ,Training and Insurance . To tell me that I am not Mature is silly.

If people only knew how much FFl fees can run you not to mention the paperwork, the phone calls, the surprise visits And the customers who do not know the basic fundamentals of marksmanship. They blame the firearm until you put three in a clover leaf. If I didnt love what I was doing do you think I would be going thru this ?

VERY well said. I partially know the difficulties of gunsmithing, but less judicial, and red tape relations then firearms. I am on the otherhand a very accomplished airsmith.

What sprocket said. As the original author of this thread I was just sharing my interest in guns with other BARFers as I know there are a lot of BARFers that are gun hobbyists. I've been around guns my entire life. My first experience with guns was when I was about 4 years old and living in Brazil. My uncle took me birdhunting on my other uncle's farm.

I ate what I killed and still remember spitting out some shot.

So, I talked to my Dad about this photo because it seemed fishy. His response is that the phot is real; however, the story attributed to it is 100% bullshit.

He said that only in movies do pilots get away with zany antics. The photo you are looking at is of practice for an air show.

He determined it was practice for an air show because first of all the plane was doing what it was doing. If a pilot had pulled that manuever without authorization, he would be looking at an end of his career, not a simple grounding of 30 days.

Next, a person on the deck took the photo. The crew on the deck do not carry cameras and observers are not allowed on the deck when it is active. The only way one of the crewman would have a camera is if he knew something unique, like the airshow practice, was happening.

If it had been an actual airshow, there would likely have been more people on the deck.

For your info retard it is not stolen and is registered legally just because I decided not to tell you the reason I have it you go running off at the mouth once again when you dont know the whole story - you must have alot of stereotypes and pre-judgemnt going on . Guess I shouldnt tell you about the other 20 plus guns coming to my house . Hmmm maybe its because I have a giant frickin safe that you would have to rip half the house apart with a bulldozer to get to it . Hmm so maybe the actual owners want them to be a little more safe than laying around the house you f-tard.I really dont have to tell you the reason I have the weapon because its actually none of your business .

Also the police well actually the sherrif in my area is well sort of connected to my family as well as many family friends who are ploice officers . My father is a retired detective for the sherrifs dept . So its not a question of legality or being handled safely

Since you obviously want the flame session. Let me school you a bit.

First off, it's "Holier Then Thou" not though. Second of all I said I was not going to post MY weapons. Everyone else can, and sure as hell are free to do so. Doesn't mean I dont admire people posting their weapons either.

Oh and last but not least, TECHNICALLY holding onto a firearm that is not registered to you IS a crime.

[CHAMPIONR6]

Ok English teacher maybe I will spell check next time - must have missed that day in class - so sorry my bad I will register for some adult night classes asap !

You right about the firearm so I guess I should give it back so he can leave it in his apartment where less than two months ago in the same complex some idiot shot and killed his roomate in freemont for what reason I dont know . Maybe he should leave it on the front table with one in the hole just in case especially when he is out of town for two months straight . Hmm left loose in an apartment with no ne home for two months or sitting locked in a safe where it hasnt come out since . Funny thing was when he was interviewed by the police about the neighbors shooting he told them what he was going to do and they said that would be a good idea to lock it up .... seems like it is safer locked up to me but to you against the law and better off back at the owners place of residence .

I'll have to admit shooting a firearm is quite a rush. The first time i tried I was excited but afterwards I truly realized how dangerous they can be. Thus if you love your guns you should advocate tight controls and mandatory pass/fail training. This is not for everyone nor should it be.

I have one of those, a Baikal SxS. Mine has the single trigger though. Bad thing is that in pistol class you are taught to keep the trigger back and then reset. Well, if you hold the trigger back on this recoil will fire the other barrel so you basically get two blasts at once. Impressive on a pumpkin, less so on the shoulder.

It is definitely sturdy though. I enjoy shooting it a lot.

Ducky, I'm sure there's people on this board much better armed than I am. Though I'm trying. ;) So poor, so very poor.

Nope, fired them one at a time, ejected the shells, and took the pic. It took a couple trys to get a pic with a good amount of gunsmoke in the barrels.

Oh, and regulation has nothing to do with why it's bad to shoot all three at the same time - it's the recoil! Popping off two 16gauge + one 9.3mm shells at the same time on a rifle with crescent steel butplate would really hurt!

[sprocket]

Zeff no the recoil can be ridden out. You will be bruised but ok. The Regulation will not be easily repairable.

I had a gent bring to me a Gibbs Double That had Started to Drift on the right tube. It took several Weeks to finally get that Fine Double to Print right again at 50 yards. and then again at 100 yards.

This Gent did not realize that the rifle was worth over 12,000.
As this Gibbs was in the original 404 jefferys. And had been built during the initial safari/cordite craze of the english empire.

Drillings are becoming scarce due to the market being very selective .

I dont think Valmet Imports any more . Or Sauer for that matter.

although H&H will and does. If you want to wait.

What ammo manufacturer do you get your 9.3mm from / Norma /RWS/Brenneke Dynamit-Nobel/or US manufacture ?

People, I want to buy an AR-50, and I know they're going illegal on 1/3/05. But funds are tight now (can't free up ~$3000 right before Christmas).

Is there a single part on the gun that is going illegal now that I can buy now and get the rest later? For example, if the CA AWB were going into effect on 1/3 and I wanted an AR-15, I could just buy the receiver now (the illegal part) and then pick up the rest later.

Is this possible for the AR-50?

[zefflyn]

Same thing - the receiver. You can add the barrel, stock, and other parts later.

[Brash47]

Ive seen some nice guns here. I have been shooting for approx. 17 years now, ever since I got in the Marine Corps before I became a LEO. Funny thing is, I'm on the SWAT team at my job, Im a firearms instructor, and after shooting for this many years, I actually don't like shooting.

I never have, never will. I'm damn good at it! But for some reason, I get no enjoyment out of it whatsoever.

I've been involved in 2 shootings since I became a LEO and I can tell you people now, that shit lives with you for a long time. You think about it, you dream about it, but with anything that is stressful in your life, you get on with it. I got into shooting incidents while I was in the first Gulf War. I remember those vividly.

BUT, there are some people in this world, I guess, that because of the life choices they have made, it does not effect them in their everyday life, other than to appreciate life itself. I feel I am one of these people because I don't grieve for those that were put under my sight, because they PUT themselves there. I used the tools I was given to survive the fight. I went home at the end of the day and saw my family. I feel bad for their families, yes, but maybe there was something more they could have done before it got to that person being faced by me.

I know that sounds hard, but then again, there are people who have to make the hard decisions and live with them. LEO work and the Marines (the military in general) is not for everyone. You should really consider your path if you decide to pursue either course, because you WILL have to make those decisions from time to time.

I'm not one of those willy-nilly "don't own guns" people. I just never got into the joy of owning more than my original duty weapon.

I have friends at work that own ALOT of guns and I like to look at them....

Just remember, depending on which side of that fence you sit...people are either:

THE ROOT OF THE EVIL
by Jeff Cooper

My dictionary describes an obsession as "a haunting by a fixed idea." A haunting is a nagging, continuous fear of the unreal. A fixed idea is one that cannot be altered, by truth or reason or anything else.

Phobia is listed as "fear, horror, or aversion -- of a morbid character. "Morbid" is "unwholesome, sickly. "

Those of us who shoot cannot help being perplexed when we encounter people who are apparently haunted by a fixed and morbid aversion to our guns. When first we meet such persons we generally respond with explanations, as is only reasonable. But with time we discover that often we are not dealing with rational minds. This is not to say that everyone who is opposed to shooting is mentally aberrant, but it is to say that those who latch on to an unreasonable notion and thereafter refuse to listen to any further discussion of it have problems that are more amenable to psychiatry than to argument.

I coined the term hoplophobia over twenty years ago, not out of pretension but in the sincere belief that we should recognize a very peculiar sociological attitude for what it is -- a more or less hysterical neurosis rather than a legitimate political position. It follows convention in the use of Greek roots in describing specific mental afflictions. "Hoplon" is the Greek word for "instrument," but refers synonymously to "weapon" since the earliest and principal instruments were weapons. Phobos is Greek for "terror" and medically denotes unreasoning panic rather than normal fear. Thus hoplophobia is a mental disturbance characterized by irrational aversion to weapons, as opposed to justified apprehension about those who may wield them. The word has not become common, though twenty years is perhaps too short a time in which to test it, but I am nevertheless convinced that it has merit. We read of "gun grabbers" and "anti-gun nuts" but these slang terms do not face up to the reasons why such people behave the way they do. They do not adequately suggest that reason, logic, and truth can have no effect upon one who is irrational on the point under discussion. You cannot say calmly "Come, let us reason together" to a hoplophobe because that is what he is -- a hoplophobe. He is not just one who holds an opposing view, he is an obsessive neurotic. You can speak, write, and illustrate the merits of the case until you drop dead, and no matter how good you are his mind will not be changed. A victim of hydrophobia will die, horribly, rather than accept the water his body desperately needs. A victim of hoplophobia will die, probably, before he will accept the fallacy of his emotional fixation for what it is.

Have you noted that whenever an assassination is committed with a rifle, our journalistic hoplophobes clamor for further prohibitions on pistols? A pistol is a defensive weapon; a rifle is an offensive weapon. Yet the hoplophobes always attack pistols first because they feel that pistols are somehow nastier than rifles. (Though rifles are pretty nasty, too. They will get to those later.) This is the age of the "gut reaction" -that crutch of intellectual cripples -- and for an interesting number of commentators it is not even embarrassing to admit that actually thinking about anything important is just too much trouble. Some of our most ubiquitous and highly paid social-problem columnists are egregious examples of this.

Not long ago a staff member of the Chicago Tribune held forth at some length about how the color gatefolds in outdoor magazines exemplified the same sniggering depravity that we find in the pornographic press, substituting guns for girls. What a sewer of a mind this man displays! It is undeniable that both a man-made work of art and a beautiful woman are manifestations of God's blessing, but to imply that our admiration for them is obscene is to give oneself away. For some it indeed may be, but the rest of us need no advice from such. (I had thought that the fad to fantasize everything into a Freudian sex-symbol had gone out of vogue prior to World War II, but obviously there are a good many who never got the word.)

The essence of the affliction is the belief that instruments cause acts. It may be that certain degenerate human beings are so far gone that they will use something just because it is there -- a match, for instance. (I saw a bumper sticker in the Rockies that admonished "Prevent Forest Fires. Register Matches!") One who will burn people because he has a match is the same as one who will shoot people because he has a gun, but the hoplophobe zeroes in on guns because he is -- let's face it -- irrational. He will answer this by saying that we need matches (and cars, and motorcycles, and power saws, et cetera) but we do not need guns. He will not accept the idea that you may indeed need your guns, because he hates guns. He is afflicted by the grotesque notion that tools have a will of their own. He may admit that safe driving is a matter of individual responsibility, but he rejects the parallel in the matter of weapons. This may not be insanity, but it is clearly related to it.

One cannot rationally hate or fear an inanimate object. Neither can he rationally hate or fear an object because of its designed purpose. Whether one approves of capital punishment or not, one cannot rationally fear a hemp rope. One who did, possibly because he once narrowly escaped hanging, would generally be referred to a shrink. When the most prominent hoplophobe in the United States Senate says that he abhors firearms because their purpose is to put bullets through things, he reinforces the impressions that many have formed about his capacity to reason.

My point -- and I hope it is clear -- is that hoplophobia is a mental disturbance rather than a point of view. Differences of opinion -- on economic policy, or forced integration, or the morality of abortion, or the neutron bomb -- these we may hope to resolve by discussion. But we cannot so resolve a phobia. The mentally ill we cannot reach. But we can identify a form of mental illness for what it is, and so separate its victims from the policy considerations of reasonable people.

The root of the evil is the unprincipled attempt to gain votes by appealing to the emotions of the emotionally disturbed. Few reasonable politicians dare to take on the Second Amendment, even in the Eastern Megalopolis. (One prominent left-liberal told a New Yorker interviewer that he "would rather be a deer, in season, than to take on 'the gun lobby'!") But if, as is the case with the aforementioned senator, the politician is already a hopeless hoplophobe, his advisers must turn him loose to appeal to his constituency of crazies, since their jobs depend on it. "Go to it, Senator! The nuts are all with you."

This is something we who prize our traditional liberties must face. Convincing the uninterested is the very essence of politics, in a two-party system. It is up to us to do that by demonstrating that hoplophobia is a disease, and to call upon all reasonable people to reject it as a basis for the formulation of policy.

A lot of people are doing this. I think there is a receiver that can be had for about 500 bucks. I know Barret is selling some side plates for about $1500 I think. Check out Calguns.net (http://www.calguns.net/eve) for a bunch of thread on the topic. Check the General Guns, Gun rights, and Rifleman's forums. Good luck. I've just decided to accept not owning one unless I move. Lot's of other guns I want for that amount of money.

One thing I love about these laws is how many weapons they sell. If it wasn't for the assault weapons ban, both federal and state, there would probably be 20% of the guns out in public hands than there are now. Most people I know bought there's specifically because they were being banned. Bans like these SUCK, but they do bring a lot of people to the dark side. :flame

Go to your nearest gunstore. And have them order just the receiver for what ever 50Cal you want.

Receivers are sold in 3 stages

1."Finished and Ready for assembly" ( Most Expensive)

2."In the White" Needs final finishing Bluing,parkerizing,tennifer,paint whatever Cheaper than 1 above

3."80% or more" this means that more than 80% of the machine work has been done to the receiver and the rest can be done with simple tools. Or by a gunsmythe you trust.
This is the cheapest one to buy...

if it is 80% or less its not a receiver. you can buy these but keep in mind that it is not a completed receiver and not on file with the BATFE. once you do the smallest thing to it though like drill a retaining hole . or mill a slot it's more than 80% complete and you have a whole passel of paperwork to do.

if you cant get option 1
then try option 2
last do option 3
option 4 is only as a last resort.

Support your local Gunsmith...
or at least bring us tasty virgins..

I was once a "Gun nut" and doing whatever I could to collect, work and shoot as many styles of weapons as I could. After my first shooting incident, that has now changed. I'm a gun enthusiast still, but the fact of shooting is a bit different to me now.

OK, here is some skinny on the .50cals....

Serbu is selling recievers, in the white, for $500. Find a local dealer in your area thats selling them and get one locked up before the ban. You can then ship it back to Serbu and they will finish it off for ya for a price...

OR, you can buy a FabTen AR15 lower receiver, register it as a .50cal, and then add a .50 upper at later date. as long as its registered as a .50 cal, yer good to go.

gonna get me a couple of them this weekend.

I will drag it out this weekend and take another look.
thanks

Right on, that'll make a good addition to the photo's thread!
There should be a collection of proof marks like crown over eagle, and different letters inside circles or under crowns.
Hopefully, it'll have the name of the mfg, and the region it was made in.

"Well, you nailed the shooting ability of the Sac. Co. SO
Actually, not that bad... there are some good shooters out there. Personally I suck ass with my sidearm, but I'm freaking artist for a scattergun (makes smiley faces with slugs at 50 yards ).


I could see how some people could take the term "toy" wrong, but in the end, thats weapons are to me. Ya just gotta give them the respect they are due when you play with them. Just like any other "toy"... motorcycle, R/C plane, ski boat, hot rod, archery equipment.... all the same. If you use them propperly, handle them propperly and heed the propper training, they are enjoyable to use, and to me that puts them into the "toy" category. Others may call thenm something else. But they are nothing dark, mysteroius, or anything to be afraid of (again, when handled and used properly).

Any hobby/activity can turn ugly when you dont give it the respect its due. "

*I agree....now can i some a freakin gun's!*

Anyone else a Lewis Black fan? This picture just reminded me of:

"If I was a child born and raised in cottonplant, when I could purchuse a gun which would be at what age? 9? I would have slept with that gun every night, and had the muzzle in ma mouth..."

Haahhahhahaha.I just bought my first gun a few weeks ago. A ruger 10.22. Very fun gun! Easy to handle and very very cheap to shoot at my local range!!:teeth
