I dig how every time a Dem is running or elected the "They're gonna take your guns" stuff starts up. Ain't happened yet and isn't going to happen. My rights as a black man voting will go before that ever happens. Congress passes laws, the president doesn't. Anyway..
I'll buy as many weapons as I need to protect my family (which will be a Saiga12, AR15 and a .380 for the wife.. and that's it).

Yarri,
how come you haven't purchased a weapon yet? Bersa makes some pretty inexpensive .380's. The Beretta Nano will run you about 450. Just make up your mind that you're gonna do it and set aside the money each check. I know how hard it is to get going, but you need to have some form of a firearm.
That knucklehead walking down Hollywood blvd a couple months ago made up my mind to get serious about buying one. Random crap like that is what we're dealing with these days instead of gov trying to take away our .50 cal duck hunting guns.

It is, my post was heavily laden with irony though.

what incident was this?

i disagree on one point: the fed is trying to disarm the people, but it's not dems or reps, it's "progressives" which can be found in both parties. the problem is not one huge sweeping gun ban, it's little things. peice by peice they chip away at our freedoms until they can remove them wholesale from the constitution. like the assault weapons ban. anything can be used to assault someone, and therefore that would make it an assault weapon right? so the title is ambiguous, so let's go to content: it banned semi-automatic rifles. not assault rifles, which is a clissification of rifle defined by the inclusion of a select fire feature, but semi-automatic rifles like the AR-15, and it banned things based on aesthetics, not function. thank goodness that silly piece of legislation was not renewed, but that's how it starts. look at britain, they didn't start with the wholesale ban of firearms, they started with little restrictions here and there until not even the police are allowed to carry guns. sorry for the rant, i just see the threat to our freedoms as very real.

are you actually allowed to carry a swiss army knife?

[HorrorHiro]

Horror
sorry but all things dealing with weapons go into the weapons thread. We already have pictures of what we own or would like to own...fantasy about having, military weapons..blah, blah, blah.
Sorry, but i'm moving with the others.

Crowbar Out.

It is what is. For some reason i just assumed that this thread would degrade into an argument along the lines of "AK-47 Vs. M-16" sorry.

Yes. But that's about it really, and a leatherman maybe, I think we're allowed air rifles as well, we were when I was a kid but the laws may have changed. Definitely allowed a SAK though.

That made me laugh so hard!!!

both are great, just in different ways. the AK47 is like the workhorse of war, no matter what you do to it, it will keep on shooting. the AR platform is like a precision instrument, it requires love and care, but it is great at what it does. also, it's like a barbie doll for men. based on how the rounds are designed, i would go with the AR platform, but that's just a personal thing. plus i love accessories.
