  1. And by the way, Mike Stewart is the sponsor of Amendment #13 on HB0995 (establishes a rebuttable presumption that anyone carrying in a park that discharges a firearm in the presence of or within the line of sight of children without just cause would be civilly liable for assault and an additional fine of $5000.)


    Because, ya know, most people were planning on using the parks as firing range.

    Mewling idiots.
  2. After looking around a bit, seems rather a 50/50 question. Apparently ATF has never issued a clear cut ruling or letter about whether 922r applies to a pistol converted to rifle (whether an SBR or non-NFA rifle config), and conflicting gray letters exist that seem to support both sides.

     

    Every time I think I might want to SBR something, I just read a discussion or two about all the intricacies and limitations both before and after, and I forget about it again. :)

     

    The SIG brace is heaven sent for very very close to the same end result and no limitations how it's used, stored, lent, or inherited, etc,  and no limitations on where you take it either. Plus 200 clams for a long wait avoided from the gitgo.

    Until they change their mind.

     

    On the subject of 922r compliance with SBRs imported as pistols, I've seen an opinion from the ATF that it would indeed have to meet the parts requirement (dated 2009).

  3. Sad? No, sensible.

     

    What is the point of carrying a weapon in the car with you when you are just going to leave it there when you get out of the car?  What!?  Wild Wing Cafe in Knoxville has a sign up and I was swinging in for lunch?  Guess I'll drive home and lock up my gun, then come back and eat.  Glad you have time to do this. You know the odds of being carjacked?  I would imagine not astronomically more than being mugged outside a car.  I'm sure Chris would've loved to have a firearm in his car.  Instead, an acquaintance was rapped and killed along with his girlfriend.  Carrying based on probability is the stupidest things I've heard.  Traffic accident in which someone pulls a gun? Again HUGE odds against that.  See above for the probability stuff.  Or are you going to play superman and stop a mugging that you see?  I don't carry to protect others, I carry to protect myself and loved ones.  Oh wait, you can't leave the car with the gun.  Sure you can, if its justified.  Or hows about when you are standing in line at the 7-11 and the guy that just walked in puts a gun to your head. Is that gun you left in the car going to help you then?  That happen much more often than carjackings?  Nope, didn't think so.

     

    Either get the HCP and carry all the time or don't get it and be don't carry.  Again, glad you have time to go back home and lock up your guns when you're out and about.

     

    Bringing the 2A rights into the argument for or against is pointless. If the lawmakers that are in place wanted to act according to the Constitution, we would already have no permit needed carry. Since that ain't gonna happen, go and get a HCP and stop leaving the damn weapon in the car where it is absolutely useless to you unless the big bad man comes to your window demanding the car which has less odds than hitting the lottery or being struck by lightning.  Probability again?  Why do you need to carry?  The neighborhoods you frequent that bad?  Think I'd avoid them.

  4. While I am behind 2A way more than the average person, I can not help but to cringe at the mention of this law being a "good" thing.

     

    The fact that there are people who currently have a CHL and the people that will carry in a vehicle if the law passes, that leave a weapon in their car is just plain stupid, period.

     

    Never, ever do you want to be the one who's weapon and/or car is stolen and said weapon is used in a crime or heaven forbid, the murder of a child. Try explaining that one away. And even though you most likely won't be charged, you will definitely be sued. And worst of all, how could you live with yourself?

     

    Holy talking points!  If you consider this law not to be a "good thing", then you would most certainly find my views on the second amendment "extreme".  And I would agree with those above, by your way of thinking you probably shouldn't own any firearms at all.  Break-ins happen everyday.

     

    Those comments sound like a Brady Campaign ad.  Very sad to see on a firearm based board.

  5. Actually managed to get 3000 rounds of 5.56 for about .35 to .40 cpr shipped for brass.  Got lucky with a couple online purchases.  Not excellent prices but its much cheaper than most places.  Prior to that the stockpile was a little on the low side.  Just hope the ADI penetrators from AIM aren't as terrible as some claim.
