Only if you choose to see the world in black and white and can't face the real truth.

Kind of sucks to see the world for what it really is, doesn't it?
Much easier to put up blinders. |

Hey < sp3 fuck off in this thread. I said an AK-47 assault rifle on the last page... I said nothing about an automatic rifle. Start opening your eyes instead of stroking your Sig. You strike me as the kind of guy who has guns because you were picked on in high school and are just breathlessly waiting for your chance to shoot a man just to prove how big and bad you are.

Your friend did not buy an AK-47 - he bought an "AK-47" - which would have a ghost of the features in the actual assault rifle. "Most states" have strict laws on gun-show sales laws and restrictions. They definitely wouldn't be able to sell live full-auto AK-47's. |

Well now we're just arguing semantics. So my understanding is that you are stating to be a true assault rifle a weapon must have the ability to be freely changed from selective to auto fire yes? In any case the weapon he purchased is a rifle which fires 7.62 ammunition at a high veolicty and could most certainly be used to assault whatever target he chose. I was there to witness him purchasing at the gunshow with no presentation of ID. What states ban gun shows and these loopholes? In the south gun shows are like trailers... you can't take 3 steps without running into one.

With that said I still think a sane, well qualified individual should be able to own a weapon in the US. I've got no problem with registering my weapons and would even think it reasonable to have weapons test fired for groove impressions to be entered into a database at sale. Granted clever scallywags could change out the barrel to fool the system but it is just another level of safety and another hurdle for those who would do harm.
I own a gun. I support gun rights. I think it is insane that Cobb bought an AK-47 NON-ASSULT RIFLE at a gun show with no oversight and no guarantee that he is a sane, rational and qualified individual. |

The term "assault rifle" is made up by politicians to sound scary. All it means is a rifle or carbine (carbine meaning rifle with a shorter barrel) than can be easily concealable and shoot a lot without being re-loaded. See above video. You are right.. we are arguing semantics, but you are making the situation worse by implying that your friend bought something that he didn't.. and that what he bought was for some reason way way worse than what he should be allowed to buy. You either don't fully understand what you are talking about, or you are just throwing out buzz words and giving people the wrong impression. I can assure you that i was not that person in high school. I don't know how you formulated that opinion either. but you sure sound like a big and bad by belittling me in a post. I could apply the same amount of logic and say that you love being king of the message board to make up for lack of friends in high school. that being said i agree that it is stupid that someone can by any firearm at a show with no background check.. or at a store with a trivial background check and leave 5 min later Last edited by <sp3 : 01-16-2009 at 12:47 PM. |

Selective fire means the ability to select from different modes of fire, ie semi-auto to auto or 3 round burst. Selective fire does not mean semi-auto |

this is not correct either. The assault weapons ban existed from 1994 - 2004. automatic weapons have been illegal since the thirties.. in response to mobsters rattling up town with tommy guns

Fuck you're a condescending prick. For my money the lack of stripper clips with out of box acceptance of 30rd banana magazines (or plug and play with a drum) and a rotating bolt = AK-47. Well no shit you can't buy a fully automatic rifle at a gun show... you're really breaking fucking news here and that isn't what we were discussing. I occasionally train with the SWAT team here and get to fire off their full auto AR-15s modded out with EOTech scopes and all the bells and whistles. How hard does that make your dick? Here comes your arguments that a "true AR is the civilian version, semi auto thank you very much." Fuck off man. Go back to sucking your uncle Jimbo's dick in the back of his gun shop. Gun people like you are the fucking worst.

and you are so quick to anger. i am tired of defending myself against conic flamers. calm the hell down. Don't assume anything about me, and i will give you the same respect. /hostility what is your line of work that you would get to train with SWAT? i went to a SWAT range once, but only because i am friends with the son of the guy who is in charge of training state police in firearm proficiency. |

Listen brohan... you can't parade in here and start being a dismissive dick and then get defensive when people get hostile. I know enough about guns to know what a weapon is capable of instead of making a purchase because it "looks cool." We can argue semantics all night long and come to 46 different definitions of what constitutes the name for a particular weapon and/or weapon class but in the end if you're a cockbag about it you're just going to get flamed.

jc's just a gun owner,
I love the concept that one gun is more deadly than the other. They all fire fucking bullets don't they? Or are there some guns out there that fire jellybeans and gumdrops? |

I'm curious what he shot that was so awesome. A tommy gun? A grenade launcher? .50 caliber automatic helicopter cannon?
