So, what do you think? Should ‘Military-Style Weapons’ be banned? I mean, anything that has been used in a battlefield does not have a place amongst us mere Civilians, right? Any “sensible person” can agree with that! That’s it unless you understand how those two little words can be applied by sneaky politicians once you give them the go ahead.

Hell, even some gun owners may agree. Tell me if you haven’t heard or read some idiot saying: “I ain’t got use for an M16. I am a hunter and I have my hunting rifle and that’s all I need!” Besides the well know to most fact that the Second Amendment is not about hunting, let’s check what guns are part or have been part of battlefields and thus, fall under the category “Military-Style Weapons.”

Revolvers: Wait, you thought they were not in the list? Pretty much since its creation, the lowly revolver has been in battlefields everywhere in the world. Webleys, LeMats, Colts, Smith & Wesson, Nagants, etc have been wherever wars were fought in the 19th & 20th Centuries.  Even General Patton carried a revolver with him in a time where a semi auto pistol was the standard issues for the US Army.
OK so Revolvers are “Military-Style Weapons.” They can be banned.

Shotguns: “Wait! What do you mean shotguns? Shotguns are not Military-Style Weapons!” Oh! but they have and are being used by our military. You did not know that? Behold the Winchester Model 1897 pump shotgun A.K.A. Trench Gun.
Used by Dough Boy in WWI, it stuck fear on the Kaiser soldiers who wanted it banned from the battlefield. Yes, it even came with bayonet lug and bayonet which according to the Antis makes it an “Assault Weapon.” The shotgun is being used right now overseas by our military so we can add the good ole pump shotgun to the “Military Style” guns to be banned at a whim of the politicos.
Hunting Rifles: “OK you just lost your mind. My deer gun is NOT a Military-Style Weapon!” Sorry, it is but it was the first reliably mass produced military weapon dating back the Spanish American war and probably a bit before that. Germany used them in both World Wars as line rifle and scoped (just like your hunting rifle) as sniper rifle.
Almost every bolt action rifle used for hunting today is based on the Mauser rifle of the time and that makes them a Military Style weapon plus with the added penalty of capable of being used as sniper rifles that may not fall in the hands of terrorists!

I can go on about every type of weapon there is including muzzleloaders, lever action rifles, semi auto pistols, etc. If you have not gotten the idea yet, you won’t ever.

However as funny anecdote, the AR family of rifles and which its latest descendant, the M4 is now being used by our military, started its life as a gun sold to civilians and police when it came out first. The military picked it up later seeing duty first with the Air Force keeping S.A.C. airfields safe. Does that mean it is not covered by the Military-Style weapons ban?

The lesson here is simple: When using generic terms like “Military-style”, “gun control” and “reasonable” the average citizen will think in the least hurtful terms possible while the politicians will push & extract the maximum amount of power possible, will pass laws accordingly and will have no shame in lying or use any means to pass them (Do “You have to approve it to read what is in it” sound familiar?)

Challenge your politicians. If they cannot give you but generic answers on what Gun Control or Military-style weapons are, they are lying and they are ready to give you the shaft. But then again they do that every day after they wake up.

Democratic senators offer gun control amendment for cybersecurity bill – The Hill’s Video.

The amendment was sponsored by Democratic Sens. Frank Lautenberg (N.J.), Barbara Boxer (Calif.), Jack Reed (R.I.), Bob Menendez (N.J.), Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.), Schumer and Dianne Feinstein (Calif.). S.A. 2575 would make it illegal to transfer or possess large capacity feeding devices such as gun magazines, belts, feed stripes and drums of more than 10 rounds of ammunition with the exception of .22 caliber rim fire ammunition.

The Usual Suspects against the Second Amendment do not let a shooting go to waste. Those of us old enough to have lived through the AWB are pretty stocked with mags and other devices, but the new generations might not and the point is to stop all kinds of interferences to our rights.

Time to contact both your Congress-person and your Senator and telling them we will not accept any restrictions to our Second Amendment Rights no matter how “sensible” they appear or appeal.

One last thing. Have you joined the NRA? If so, are you sure you are still a current member? I am still amazed at the amount of people who swear they are members but then realize they haven’t renewed their membership in years. Our strength is in the number of voters that the NRA leadership represents. So if you are not a member or let your status expire, JOIN HERE.

If you are a member, you may want to consider donating directly to the NRA Institute for Legislative Action. Monies for the NRA-ILA go straight to fight for our rights in Congress. Any amount will do and will be greatly appreciated. That cheap box of practice ammo for your 9mm that cost around $10 to $12? Donate that money to make sure every “round” will be used against any further attacks on the Second Amendment.

Days of Our Trailers is confused. After careful wait and examination, his Evil AK has neither given him desperately urges to kill innocent people nor gone on its own and start a massacre.

I decided to test mine:
Let’s see…. Evil Pistol Grip? Yes times two. High Capacity Magazines? Yes. “Telescopic sniper” 1x red dot sight? Yep. Bayonet Lug? Yeah! (Although I have no idea where I put the bayonet.) Ammunition? Hell yeah!It’s even have a light! ZOMG!

I feel…. I feel… kinda embarrassed. I haven’t shot this baby in a while actually. But Murderous thought? Nope. And it is either broken or well behave because it has not moved at all neither shot anybody.

However, I implore you, check your own EBR (Evil Black Rifle) and make sure it does not take over your mind or has sudden urges to escape your house and start a life of crime.

Voodoo “Assault” Guns: Because Antis actually believe that crap.

UPDATE: After 2.5 hours the only urge I had so far is hunger… and took care of it without having to kill anybody. <BURP>

UPDATE 2: I feel…. I feel…. like a nap. Still no murdering urges after almost 4 hours.

FINAL UPDATE: I fell asleep in front of the EBR for several hours. I did not have dreams of mayhem against my fellow humans and the rifle did not attack me. I don’t think it even move. I can only reach one conclusion: My gun must be broken!

Thanks to Breda Fallacy.

Alto Bonito Teen fires at suspected home intruders with AK47 : News : ValleyCentral.com.

Around 6 p.m. on Tuesday evening, the victim told sheriff deputies four armed men came onto his property on Pete Solis Street in Alto Bonito.

The victim said that is when he rushed to grab an AK47 and a shootout began.

The victim managed to shoot one of the intruders in the leg.

OK people! How can the Antis keep their narrative if we keep using Evil “Assault Rifles” for legitimate purposes?

Remember, every time a Criminal gets shot by a Law Abiding Citizen, Japete sheds a tear, Everitt Ladd throws a fit and Paul Helmke has to pop a Cialis to get his neck straight up again.

A Kind Word and a 2×4: Chic Fil A brouhaha, geez..

Because we have to trust the Media, they are never wrong.

Instead I leave an old and misogynistic joke. I know somebody is always looking for reasons to badmouth this blog.
