What do youguys think about the new gun ban?

February 10th, 2011 by eranio

I was wanting peoples to let me know what they think about Obama stomping all over the second amendment?

The framework for legislation is always laid, and the Democrats have the votes to pass anything they want to impose upon us. They really do not believe you need anything more than a brick to defend your home and family. Look at the list and see how many you own. Remember, it is registration, then confiscation. It has happened in the UK, in Australia, in Europe, in China, and what they have found is that for some reason the criminals do not turn in their weapons, but will know that you did.

Remember, the first step in establishing a dictatorship is to disarm the citizens.

Gun-ban list proposed. Slipping below the radar (or under the short-term memory cap), the Democrats have already leaked a gun-ban list, even under the Bush administration when they knew full well it had no chance of passage (HR 1022, 110th Congress). It serves as a framework for the new list the Brady’s plan to introduce shortly. I have an outline of the Brady’s current plans and targets of opportunity. It’s horrific. They’re going after the courts, regulatory agencies, firearms dealers and statutes in an all out effort to restrict we the people. They’ve made little mention of criminals. Now more than ever, attention to the entire Bill of Rights is critical. Gun bans will impact our freedoms under search and seizure, due process, confiscated property, states’ rights, free speech, right to assemble and more, in addition to the Second Amendment. The Democrats current gun-ban-list proposal (final list will be worse):

(iv) a forward grip; or a barrel shroud.
Any semiautomatic rifle with a fixed magazine that can accept more than
10 rounds (except tubular magazine .22 rim fire rifles).
A semiautomatic pistol that has the ability to accept a
detachable magazine, and has:
(i) a second pistol grip,
(ii) a threaded barrel,
(iii) a barrel shroud or
(iv) can accept a detachable magazine outside of the pistol grip, and
(v) a semiautomatic pistol with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10
rounds.

(i) a folding or telescoping stock,

(iii) the ability to accept a detachable magazine or a fixed magazine capacity
of more than 5 rounds, and
(iv) a shotgun with a revolving cylinder.
Frames or receivers for the above are included, along with conversion kits.
Attorney General gets carte blanche to ban guns at will: Under the proposal, the U.S. Attorney General can add any “semiautomatic rifle or shotgun originally designed for military or law enforcement use, or a firearm based on the design of such a firearm, that is not particularly suitable for sporting purposes, as determined by the Attorney General.”

Note that Obama’s pick for this office, Eric Holder, wrote a brief in the Heller case supporting the position that you have no right to have a working firearm in your own home. In making this determination, the bill says, “there shall be a rebuttable presumption that a firearm procured for use by the United States military or any law enforcement agency is not particularly suitable for sporting purposes, and a shall not be determined to be particularly suitable for sporting purposes solely because the firearm is suitable for use in a sporting event.” In plain English this means that ANY firearm ever obtained by federal officers or the military is not suitable for the public.

The last part is particularly clever, stating that a firearm doesn’t have a sporting purpose just because it can be used for sporting purpose — is that devious or what? And of course, “sporting purpose” is a rights infringement with no constitutional or historical support whatsoever, invented by domestic enemies of the right

With all of the new .223/5.56 assault rifles coming out, what are the pros and cons of them all?

February 9th, 2011 by eranio

I don’t care if you take it from a civilian or military perspective, I’m just curious. There are a million m-4′s, AR-15, now there are SCARs, the US military is looking at XM8′s right now, Bushmaster just came out with the ACR, every gun company under the sun has their version of an m4/ar15. If money is no issue, what are the pros and cons of all these straight out of the box? (feel free to add any other 5.56 nato round shooting assault rifles)
Reading the first answer I got maybe I’m not being clear. Yeah no crap about full auto not being legal, I’m not retarded, I’m not 12, I own several firearms of my own. I’m trying to find out the major pros, cons, and differences of all these new assault rifles that are on the market and that are coming out.
Ahem, once again, reading some of the answers, this is not about ammo, this is about guns, thanks :D
Reading more answers…..I’m NOT asking "What is an assault rifle?" I’m DO KNOW that I cannot get full auto…thanks

Why Can't I Buy An Assault Rifle at Cabela's in Connecticut?

December 24th, 2010 by eranio

I’ve been checking the Cabela’s flyers online once in a while lately because I’,m thinking about getting an assault rifle (either an AK47 or an AR-15) but it always says in the ad "Not available in Connecticut". Is this because there is some type of assault weapons ban in Connecticut or just because this particular store does not carry them? Thanks

What Is The Best Way To Disarm Undocumented Foreigners?

December 15th, 2010 by eranio

One list of undocumented foreigners’ confiscated weapons.

" U.S. authorities announced they had seized two homemade bombs, materials for making 33 more, military-style grenades, 26 grenade triggers, large quantities of AK-47 and AR-15 assault rifles, 1,280 rounds of ammunition, silencers, machine gun assembly kits, 300 primers, bulletproof vests, police scanners, sniper scopes, narcotics and cash."

http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2006/02/10/1360221.htm

Yahoo censors my questions if I use the legal term "illegal aliens". I had to rephrase the question using the term "undocumented foreigners".

Military Question–Ground Combat-oriented. What should we look for in choosing the next infantry rifle?

November 23rd, 2010 by eranio

In the US forces the venerable AR-15 (Colt) or M-16 has been with us for about 45 years. It has had its flaws, but has generally worked fairly well for US Marines and Army. It is lightweight, has a rapid rate of fire in full auto mode, and uses ammunition that is relatively easy to keep in supply. It has a history of jamming, but preventative maintenance can help this. Variants of the M-16 have expanded its flexibility by allowing it to be used as a grenade launcher as well as a rifle.

Obviously a rifle that is less susceptible to jamming would be desirable. What other qualities do you think ground forces need in an individual weapon?
For better or worse we have kept the M-16 since the 1960′s. Backed up by heavier machine guns it has been adequate. Frankly, I think we have kept it too long, and need a replacement. I was issued an M-16 in Vietnam, however my role didn’t include combat, so my main experience with it is maintaining it and being ready to use it. I would not have liked to go one and one against an AK-47 or similar weapon, but would have had confidence in the weapon if I was one of several people using it. Frankly, I would like to see a much better replacement for it.
A little more on why I am asking this question: I am an amateur military historian and have some knowledge of the history and uses of some types of military weapons or weapons systems. I also have a military logistics background. I have no control over what the Defense Department buys or programs in its budget. I know a great deal about the history of combat handguns, all the way back to muskets.

In World War I, the British-designed Lee-Enfield .303 was an excellent weapon, but by World War II its single bolt action was a limiting factor. The American Garand, or M1, was a better choice for American troops and this weapon served us through the Korean War as well.

Many soldiers I’ve talked to liked the descendant M14 better than the M16, but it was a heavy rifle in comparison. The M16 has given excellent service since about 1965 and replaced the M14. B.C. noted the hitting power issue. I did pick on the jamming problem. What is the best replacement for the M16?
Laser weapons or phased kinetic energy weapons are an interesting future possibility, but I don’t see them ready for procurement in the near term. The advantage of the M16 is that it is a generally proven weapon–we know its strengths and limitations.

How do you make a semi-automatic rifle like a civilian AR-15 into a fully automatic rifle?

November 13th, 2010 by eranio

I was wondering what specific mechanism makes the difference between a fully automatic M16a1 and an civilian AR-15? I know this it is now illegal for civilians to own fully auto weapons, but its curious how the military opted for semi or 3-round burst weapons instead of fully auto weapons like the M16a1 which is very useful when a soldier is outnumbered by the enemy.

Does anyone Hunt Deer with .223 Caliber Rifle?

October 31st, 2010 by eranio

I live in Michigan below the rifle line which means we have to use shotgun. We are planning a hunting trip in Wisconsin where rifles are allowed. I was thinking about using my AR-15 with a scope and a 5 round hunting clip I bought. Is .223 strong enough to kill deer? Have anyone used it with success? I figure if the military uses it against people it should probably be good enought to get deer too, or is this logic flawed? Bonus for personal expierence.
I know there are other better rounds to use, but I dont want to buy another rifle to go hunting in rifle country once every couple years.

would an old military bolt action rifle be better for an SHTF situation than a semi auto rifle?

September 23rd, 2010 by eranio

i was thinking about this the other day, so figure you are going to want something that can reliably defend you from anything (bears,humans etc.) so it has to be a high powered caliber. second a semi auto rifle( ak-47, ar-15 etc.) need a magazine to function. what if you lose or break that magazine, then you have to load one round at a time, compared to the bolt action rifle that has an internal magazine that cant be lost. and lastly most military rifles were designed with the idea of hand to hand combat in mind, so they can be equipped with bayonets. Just tell me what you think and if you agree or disagree with me

Where can I buy an assault rifle?

September 10th, 2010 by eranio

I want to buy either an M4 or an AR-15. I was wandering where I can purchase one of these guns. My credit is above 750, I am white, and I have some money saved up. I just want the gun for personal use and family protection (I am looking at worse case scenario with the state the nation is in right now)
Just stating my ethnicity. Hell, if I was Muslim, it would be a red flag to most people. I am as equal as they come. To answer your question, no criminal record.

Which is better for defending your home, the AR-15 vs. AK-47?

August 28th, 2010 by eranio

Which of these 2 rifles makes a better home defense gun, the AR-15 or the AK-47? I am talking about defending your home in a doomsday situation, when Western civilization as we know it melts down and every man is for himself. Or in a situation where our country is invaded by foreign powers and we as citizens must fight along with our military against the invaders.

Why is there no Assault/Tactical Pellet rifles?

April 11th, 2010 by eranio

Airsoft has military/law enforcement style rifles, Paintball does as well, Fake toy guns, Blanks etc etc.. But why do they not make these style rifles in .177 caliber? They have stuff you can "dress up" your rifle with, but thats all it is, just "dressing it up". And the select maybe 5 tactical style rifles available are pieces of junk with bad ratings.
I was reading one company has come out with an AR-15 style called AIR-15 i think? but the msrp is like 1500??
I bet someone could make a FORTUNE developing .177 assualt rifles.. my question is why it hasnt been done? And sell them for a regular priced air rifle?

(please dont answer if your response will be idiotic.. you know who you are)
