I watched a documentary by Vangaurd called Fully Automatic America. The reporter showed many confiscated weapons that looked automatic and military. My brother said that those weapons only look military but they really aren’t. For instance, an AR15 is supposed to be the civilian version of the M16. I Understand that, but I wanted to know if by chance criminals have military weapons in their possession. Please list sources. Thank you!
Is this a big deal to anyone? Just want to get some opinions. I have 12 guns, I have shotguns / single action cowboy guns / semi-auto rifles / carry guns older military rifles. I just like my guns, it’s one of my hobbies. That is why this is a big issue to me. Can somebody convince me that Obama will not be a gun grabber if he wins office? Here are some articles I found so far on Obama vs the Second Amendment.
Stop unscrupulous gun dealers dumping guns in cities. (Jul 2007)
Keep guns out of inner cities–but also problem of morality. (Oct 2006)
Ban semi-automatics, and more possession restrictions. (Jul 1998)
Voted NO on prohibiting lawsuits against gun manufacturers. (Jul 2005)

I was wondering if it is possible for me to join the army, 2 years ago I got charged with Check Fraud, Forgery, and Theft by deception. I was put on 6 years first offender probation, but my probation officer told me that if I pay off all the fines, it would be possible for me to get off probation, I know I can’t join while on probation. I also have a misdeanor gun charge and I was ARRESTED for possession of firearm by convicted felon but that charge was later dropped. I scored a 54 on the asvab, am I eligible?
Once off probation, I won’t be a felon anymore due to the First Offender Act, and the charges won’t show as a conviction.
does this frighten you more than the threat of unseen terrorists in some cave?
46. The U.S. government declares a ban on the possession, sale, transportation, and transfer of all non-approved firearms. A 30-day amnesty period is established for these firearms to be turned over to the local authorities. At the end of this period, a number of irregular citizen groups and defiant individuals refuse to turn over their firearms to authority. Consider the following statement: [SD D A SA NO](=strongly disagree, disagree, agree, strongly agree, no opinion)
"I would fire upon U.S. citizens who refuse or resist confiscation of firearms banned by the United States government."

Before I met him, he had a few assault and battery charges, 2 misdemeanors, 1 felony. And he also had possession of a gun, which I think was a felony. They are all from at least 3 or 4 years ago. Since then, he has been very good. But he is thinking about joining the Navy or something in the military. Would they take him? Are there restrictions about a criminal background? If so, what are they? Thanks in advance.
Does anyone know if federal or New York state law allows for a permit for the possession of firearms which are normally considered prohibited, if they can be considered historical artifacts? Example: Fully automatic weapons are prohibited except to law enforcement & military; can someone own a WWI or WWII machine gun in full working order, based on historical significance?
Just the other day, a cop brought in his fully automatic rifle in a gun shop to have it repaired. What do cops use fully automatic rifles for? Are law enforcement and military the only agencies that can legally be in possession of fully automatics?
I’ll rank them from least combat effective to most and you just draw the line or voice your opinion. I’m looking to get a concensus of see what people think on this. Preferably draw the line between two weapon types. I’ve left the list BROAD. Don’t take it as a joke please.
no weapons should be legal for the US military to own, Bottle Rockets, BB guns, Bow & arrows, medeival throwing devices like catapults and trebuchets, low powered rifles(22), shotguns, semi-automatic handguns, high powered hunting rifles, sub-machine guns, assualt rifles/sniper rifles, machine guns, hand grenades, RPG’s, combat vehicles like tanks, scud missiles, fighter jets, chemical and biolotical weapons, nuclear warheads, ultra small and powerful but not yet existent antimatter bombs, or there should be no laws against US military possession of weapons…
You may also argue that I have them in the wrong order if your line can’t be drawn.
to learn about the pro's and con's of each as well as the biggest mistake all the "heavy artillery" guys make when choosing "terminator ammo"!
