Now, now ! Some of the posters will take you seriously....

There ! By golly, someone finally made a gun powerful enough for going to church, shopping for lingerie, safeguarding school crossing zones , and trick-or-treating !!

(There's always a sourpuss !)

I know Lautenberg has always been a fanatic . Thanks for the info !

Was in discussion (elsewhere) this week, and a poster claimed there was still a "gun show loophole" , which the NRA approved of, and which Sen Lautenberg disapproved of and wanted to close. My impression is any "loopholes" have long since been closed, and gun shows are attended by almost as...

GREAT response !!!

NJ Laws xxplosive, I used to feel the same way about our restrictive gun laws, until the day I took a good look around me---and saw how damned congested we are ! There are few places in our state ( I live in one) where a shot fired-for any reason - is not in danger of hitting an unintended...

Steel Horse Rider, you sound pretty typical of the OMG crowd.

But---but---Vito : suppose the Zombies decide to attack - backed up by US troops in blue helmets ? What will you do when the (Shudder !) black helicopters show up ??

I remember the big play the .22 Jet got in the gun magazines , when it was introduced. (Depending on how much ad space was purchased, magazines would make almost any new firearm sound like the discovery of gold...in YOUR back yard ! ) I think one of the big name writers shot an unsuspecting...

I don't know if original story was true or made-up, but the following: "I've read that whole series of posts at least three times now, and while it's a really good read and well written, I'm still comfortable carrying .380 auto, 9x19, and .38 special. Doesn't mean I don't carry .45 acp or...

Have you considered the "legal implications" of killing one of the gun's safety mechanisms ? (EG: Some untutored soul picks up your pistol without permission and promptly ventilates a passerby, thinking the gun unloaded.)
