    You'd rather have a gun than a couple thousand bucks?

    Would everyone in your family feel the same way?

    Where'd you get the idea that BuyBacks will give you a couple thousand bucks for a useless piece of shit? Source? And yes, my family supports the Second Amendment. Is your life worth a couple thousand bucks? Mine isn't, and neither is my family's.

    Zero defensive gun use though. Liberty is messy.

    I am a reasonable guy. I will sell my guns. My asking prices is $20 million per gun. I have over 50

    When the gobblement cuts me a check, I will give them up.

    It depends on the program.

    Personally, I think we should have a national gun buyback program that pays $5K for every handgun and $10K for every rifle, regardless of condition, and those guns can be turned in anonymously by anyone and it's financed by repealing the Russia Tax Cut.


    And yes, my family supports the Second Amendment.
    You sure about that? If given the choice between a few grand for college or medical bills or debt, and a gun they will never use, what do you think they would choose if faced with that choice?

    I bet they would take your guns without you knowing, sell them back to the government, and use the money to pay for things like a vacation, tuition, medical bills, or to pay down debt.

    You're under the mistaken impression that a gun protects you. It doesn't. If you have a gun you're more likely to be killed by a gun.

    So is your life really worth nothing? I mean, I think your life is worthless, but do you?

    What would you need a gun for if there are no guns?

    Set an impossible standard to deliberately spike the conversation.

    Classy move.

    Then you would give them up for free. A family is less safe when a gun is in the house. If you cared about family safety, you would get rid of them.

    That's just nonsense. Were the mosque victims safer being unarmed? Don't be absurd.

    KEWL; because I could sell off a couple of worthless firearms and use that money to buy some better ones.

    "If you have a gun you're more likely to be killed by a gun."

    You're statement is BS, unless you intend to show that the person murdered would not have been murdered if they didn't have a gun, and how do you defend your family from 2 or 3 guys with knives.

    Then how come none of my family members have died, seeing as how most of them have guns in their homes??

    Ah, typical righty unable to understand that people are less safe with guns in the home. Just the fact. Answering a concept with an incident. Thre would have been dead people with guns in their holsters. When a person walks up and starts shooting. you are dead.

    I still say, why not, just because of it's dangerous bullet, it's velocity, and it's clip sizes that are available.
    Any bullet is dangerous. The .223 ranges from 999 to 2300 FPS on ave, although some do hit 2900 (depending on bullet weight and powder charge) and the .22 LR has 1080 to 1750 FPS. Bullet dia. is only .001 difference. The .22 hi-velocity hollow point is a very dangerous bullet too.






    Can you tell me the difference between the above rifles?

    Other than cosmetics, it's the same damn rifle! The Ruger 10-22.

    Do you consider the center and bottom photos "assault weapons"? What will those who wish to ban so called "assault weapons" think?

    My point is, most people (and assholes who use firearms in crimes) don't know ballistics and go for cheaper ammo (in the lower velocity figures) and there's little difference between the .223 and the .22 LR. The AR-15 won't compete with my M1 Garand or my M1A, which is primarily why I don't own one.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Do you think your military service makes you more knowledgeable or more proficient with a firearm than me?

    I'm betting it doesn't...and I'm going "all in."
    Oh, and I didn't "avoid" the military.
