Kumaki , I respect you as a human and as a mod , but here I need to justify my need for " asualt weapons " A 1022 with a wood stock , weaver mounts and no pistol grip is just as deadly as one with a pistol grip , plastic stock , and pitcanny ( probably spelled wrong ) rails . The diference is just cosmetic . On the subject of bolt action rifles being more powerful than "assualt weapons" : ( bolt action the kind you don't mind ) most ( there are exceptions both ways ) bolt actions are chambered in higher power calibers than assualt rifles . So yes , they fire slower . BUT I COULD WALK INTO A WALMART AND KILL PEOPLE . It would take longer but the round would better go through armor , better and put holes in people better . We have 2 ak47 diratives in my house . Personally I would take a bolt action for general use . BUT sometimes it is offsetting to move your eye out of your scope to jack in another round . TO be honest I sorta understand the point of of the whole gernade launcher mount , but then you cannot legally buy grenades so ... , but my GOD ... plastic and pitcanny rails are some of the things in the world for guns . Lighter carry more ammo . Pitcanny rails offer the abilty to switch acesories faster . Hi capacity mags . The more ammo you have the more weight you have stuck to your gun . YES IT IS that noticable . Pistol grips ? of all the things you could restrict ? THEY ARE JUST FOR a better abilty to grip your gun . having shot both ( and having both in home ) an ak47 ( 2 , actually , sterotypical terroist gun ) and a 300 win mag ( Chris Kyle's gun of choice ) I feel I could do as much if not more damage with a 300 win mag . Why ? zoom in with my high power scope and snipe Bob Piden ( made up pundit ) . Instantly cause panic and still have more ammo . Ak47 : start firing and with hope I hit something ( most toughest gun , but hoover damn its inaccurate ) plus waste all my ammo because I keep pulling that trigger . SURE I COULD kill a whole buncha nobodys with an assualt rifle , but for some reason the feds seem to only show emotion over their own . OKAY I know you hate me because of my last sentence of hill billy redneck rant ( and proud ) but can you name off the all the people at Newtown , or the shooter who were killed ( without googling ) , yet I'm betting you heard he used a bushmaster for his deed ( I'm part of the camp saying the assualt rifle was in the vehicle and that he used pistols ) . Dadun . I think personally he still could have done it with a bolt action . Or a crossbow . Or a knife . Or hell he could have drove in with a bomb in a bucket . YOU are trained to recognize a gun . But You see a guy walking around with a bucket with a ticking noise and you laugh - a lol wtf moment for most people before its too damn late .
Thanks for putting up with my bad grammer , puncation , and spelling hillbilly rant . I get emotional I sincerly hope I did nothing to offend . Plus I live in a rural area where you have to drive through the ton of 2000 only k-12 school to get to the gunrange . YEAH BUDDY . And the neigboring town is holding a raffle to win an ar15 for benifit of their school . If it was up to me I would have mental health screenings tri annually for gun owners , mental health evaluation bi yearly in schools , and a gun safety class in school using dummy guns ( even if you don't like guns you can learn how to check to make sure its unloaded , what NOT to do with a gun , and how to handle one , how to field strip one ) . As a lat note let me say that if all guns were to be outlawed ( not happening ) then sudenly the cartels would have a new source of revunue . I'm sorry to say I'd then probably be good customer . As would plenty of Americans . also you may have heard of defense distrubuted .
