I disagree with Democrats on guns, immigration, and the death penalty.
I mean, I understand background checks, but restricting the guns themselves? Nah.
I think fully automatic weapons should be limited to the military and law enforcement, however.
they are limited to permitted persons
and the license for any of that stuff is very restrictive
Good.
Full-auto guns are much less accurate, since the constant firing will increase recoil and throw you off.
... spray and pray
The thing people don't talk about to with "PArts kits" guns is that they are what allowed Europe to keep millions of "MAchine Guns" out of the hands of criminals after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact.
the real full autos actually are quite accurate - the gunner simply adjusts based on results
My sister once said that if a woman committed a mass shooting, no one would invoke the Second Amendment. I told her that was counterintuitive.
And it was subsidized by American sportsman
@Khanclansith What do you mean?
Banning Parts Kits guns would make the world less safe.
I understand that some people don't like guns, but that doesn't mean that you should get of all of them from everyone just because one guy was a psycho.
Gun control has honestly become Don Quixote charging windmills.
In fact, we should teach more people on how to use guns, since most gun deaths are accidents.
I know enough about guns to know you should aim to the ground when reloading and put your finger to the side of the trigger when not firing.
Right?
it is best not to shoot yourself, yes
@Illyrian The Commies buit enough Full Auto AKS for every adult to fight WW3, After the Soviet Empire collapsed Eastern Europe had tons of AKs floating around. The americans sent suits in to make deals with the EE leaders. They set up companies in Europe who bought the carbines from the government, and completely took them apart, scrapped the Full Auto parts and Receiver and then shipped all the rest of the parts back to the states for sale to Americans
Is what I said proper gun-handling?
Always treat it like it's loaded.
@Khanclansith I am aware of that.
@Illyrian The Parts Kits came into the states as bags of parts, now to be made here in the states, they have to be built on US made receivers. The end result was despite corruption, it was more proffitable to destroy the AKs and send to parts than to sell them on the black market.
It helps that the AK-47 is cheap and easy to manufacture.
Where did you learn this, by the way?
AK-47s were actually hazardous to the Soviets, so the AKM quickly took it's place in 1959.
Hazardous?
AKMs, PKs, PKMs, RPKs, AK74s, RPK74s
Yes, those are Soviet machine gun patterns.
Yes, apparently there were quite a few flaws with the AK-47, that not many notice.
Heavy and inaccurate?
The milled receiver was bulky and the barrel would wobble when it fired.
Is that any worse than the M16A1’s stupidly delicate firing mechanism?
AK-47s broke apart after a few hundred rounds and most failed QC at the factory, they were replaced with AK-49s (Forged Receivers) and those proved unsatisfactory, and were replaced with what we call type 3 receivers.
Got it.
Damn, you really know your firearms.
I’m jealous that I’ve been out-trivia’ed.
