Oh, they don't stop at that. Telling others what they can or cannot do is the new rule of the day.

and, in a lot of cases, getting your weapon threaded to receive the can..............

This was my thought. The $200 doesn't bother me nearly as much as what is being charged for a suppessor......

I respect your position and will only say that, in my observations, without boundaries, laws, limits, etc., people actually act very poorly, with little good judgement. The human species is far from an ideal one.

BassBob, To somewhat repeat myself, no, I don't consider those to be 'conditions', any more than the need to demonstrate your ability to operate a motor vehicle before you're allowed to endanger the rest of us while driving one. I strongly believe in our right to defend ourselves, but we're...

My apologies, but I do not understand what you're trying to say. I'm not sure what relevant competency means, but training is good. I have never seen anything I'd refer to as "govt mandated curriculums", nor would I endorse them. Gun shops/training centers/professionals, etc;, know best how...

Call it a right or a privilege, whatever you like, that's splitting hairs. Seems pretty sensible to me that asking that folks who want to carry/wield deadly force on our streets know how to use them.

Where in the world do you find this drivel? I'd like to see some fact checking! Facts matter to thinking folks.

I agree with your thoughts. 1st Amendment and the Constitution are the Apex thoughts here. Regardless of how I feel about the gunman's marksmanship skills, I should be able to say them freely. We're still in America. Having spent a lot of years in corporate America, you should have the sense...

I agree with most of your points. I kind-of disagree with this one: "In a perfect world there would be no government registry of personal firearm ownership. Responsible owners would keep their own inventory records." There are a number of states where we can buy and sell firearms to each...

Heck, in most states you have to take a class in order to operate a motorcycle. I don't consider training to be a non-issue.

I've got a 5" Ronin in .45, which I like a lot. I'm thinking of adding an identical 5" Ronin in 9mm, just to have a 9mm in the mix and I DO like the two tones. I would consider a 4" 9mm, but I believe in Stainless Steel. Less so in Aluminum. I also have a Kimber Pro Carry II (4") for EDC.

I completely agree with your questioning the sheer quantity of weapons and ammo in the 'real' world. I unintentionally got into a tiff with a guy in a forum when I asked why he 'needed' 100,000 rounds of ammunition. He was offended. To your point, if you last until you've shot 500, you're...

I don't have an extensive plan, but I have about 3 months or so of freeze dried food and I rotate cases of beans, spam, giant Costco jars of peanut butter, etc., I think in a pinch, I've probably got 6 months worth of food. It's water I worry about. I have a lot of containers, but there will...

Man, those are some big F'ing rabbits! The gun I remember most from my childhood, aside from the Stevens bolt action .410 (which I still have), was the Thompson that Vic Morrow carried on the "Combat" TV show. The .50 cal on the jeep was pretty cool, too.

Yeah, I would've thought that 4 or 5 rounds of 000 Buckshot would work in that situation. Maybe they weren't close together as a group. Reloading in that situation could get hairy.. I assume that the OP's point is that the AR has quite a bit more ammo capacity, which is true, but one...

and after destroying the onboard camera, you can give the aircraft a proper burial.

I've got supplies enough to 'bug in' for a number of months, assuming I can stockpile enough water early. What I worry about most is; if I have to defend my home I will need to fortify it to some degree. Sandbags stacked up, maybe. Bullets don't stop at siding or windows/doors much. That's...

Not sure I understand what the president or a US political party has to do with this act. Please explain.

Criminal acts against our laws are criminal acts. Doesn't matter the position of the criminal. Do the crime, serve the time.
