Old Glock guy

That's what Al Sharpton said.

Nice to note that most of the comments opposed the guy's anti-gun (and anti-Constitution) position.

Great Nick. We can work out the details sometime between now and then.

I used to know a month ago, but I don't know anymore.

That guy is good! I would love to see that Keith Morgan go against Piers Morgan.

I'll be heading down from Wayne. Still unsure of my travel arrangements. If anyone is leaving from this area, please post here or pm me.

Word Anthony! (I believe that's cool, hip talk for, "I agree with you emphatically!") You should post this on the General Firearms board where it will get more views. Everyone here should be a member of AT LEAST those three.

Our Congressmen aren't too bad, for the most part. It's more our damn ultra-liberal Senators.

Amen to that, brother! Mass shootings are kind of like airplane crashess. They are sensational and horrifying, but they are rare, statistical aberrations. And BTW, I don't hear anyone clamoring for us to ban airplanes.

BTW, I guess this is Cuomo's answer to his question, "How many bullets does it actually take to kill a deer?" (Anyone see him sanctimoniously proclaim at his SOS address, "It doesn't take ten bullets to kill a deer!"?)

I totally agree with you. What's the difference between 10 and 7 rounds? I believe it's so they can go to 5 next, then 3, then zero. No other explanation makes any sense.

Good, accurate info, from which the general public has been largely shielded by the media. How do we get information like this out into the mainstream?

Where did you shoot? In response to your question, I have always found slugs to be frightfully expensive and have shot them sparingly. If inexpensive slugs are available, I would love to know about it.

Nicely done! Good to see someone getting our side of the issue out there in the mainstream media.

TK421, you certainly make some good points. I find it incredibly frustrating when people in the media and others toss around the term "assault weapons" because it gets an emotional response, even though most of them have no idea what it means. But at what point during your diatribe do your non-gun owning friends' eyes glaze over, as you watch them mentally drift away?

I hope CT is taking earnest steps to ensure that the bad guys only have guns that can fire one round. Plus, they would need to make it illegal for more than one BG to attack someone at a time. At that point they would be down to basically dueling. I wonder if they will need additional laws about how challenges shall be issued?

Well done Vlad G. Those are all very good.

Interesting speculation, but this is the kind of stuff that makes people think that gun owners are nuts.

Not my own original thought, but as others have pointed out, we have armed guards for our politicians, celebrities, buildings, and our money, among other things. But when someone says we should have armed guards for our children, people on the left say, "That's crazy talk! Why would we want more guns in our schools?"

This brilliant idea would settle that discussion once and for all: http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/Biden-technology-guns-owners/2013/01/11/id/471059?s=al&promo_code=11EC2-1

Congratulations and good luck with it. Hope you like it as much as I do mine. What kind of ammo do you plan to use with it?

That's a great point. The reflex, feel-good reaction of liberal politicians (like Lautenberg) to limit ammo sales is going to hurt the sports shooter, not the mass murderer. How much ammo is needed for a mass shooting, a couple of hundred rounds at most?

It's kind of a weird situation with out of state legislators. While they don't represent us directly, their opinions and votes have an impact on our lives. Certainly, it couldn't do any harm to do that. I remember writing a few times to Scott Garrett, who is not my Congressman, but better reflected my views than the Congressman who directly represented me. Of course, I did not get a reply, but at least I felt like my voice might be heard.

From what I've seen and read, I would predict that Biden is going to recommend: 1) Criminal background checks for all gun sales. 2) Ten round mag limit. (BTW, why does it always have to be ten? When they say they don't want 100 round mags, couldn't they set the max at 20?) The good news is I don't think they have the support for national registration or the AWB (not that Feinstein won't try). The bad news is I think they might try to do the two items above by executive order.

Just watched that interview. Indeed, Ben represented gun owners quite well.
