Really? Yes, I can hit a barn accurately with a pistol at that distance to... ;)


I am pretty good! I could hit an IPSC target 5 out of 10 depending on the wind at 100 with my 45. At 50 yards 10 out of 10 in the 10 ring all day off hand.

Now on a rest, once I am locked in, the target never has a chance. :-D

I am SO happy it's illegal to own a gun here in Holland. It makes me shivver that even the "average" person has a gun. That means that the weirdest creepo can own one too..

sick world.

The only benifit I can see to having the mass owning a gun it that it makes the country very hard to invade. If any country decided to attack Australia, they would encounter a rather small army (smaller than the New York Police force) and a small number of citizens with a gun. (however the US would come save me:) (so dont do it)

But after watching how fast the police on americas tv show 'cops' put handcuffs on suspects even just to talk to them it makes me realise just how fortunate we are down here.

Ray


The two most common activities associated with guns is storing, and carrying. No level of violence is required for either.

Sorry. Doesn't meet the definition of an assault weapon. Must be capable of selective fire. That weapon doesn't have that selection.

Your argument would fit in well with the groups of people who have no problems with cars, they just hate SUVs and wish they were banned.

Homer: You couldn't be more wrong, Lisa. If I didn't have this gun, the king of England could just walk in here anytime he wants and start shoving you around. [pushing Lisa] Do you want that? [pushing her harder] Huh? Do you?

Lisa: [quietly indignant] No . . .

Homer: All right, then.

Was looking for the sound file...funnier hearing Homer say it.
