Schooled

[chris1977]

So i completely schooled someone regarding firearms. Was showing my 223 to someone and they said oh that's an assault rifle. Now this made my blood boil. So I pulled up the actual definition for them and proceeded to tell them the difference between what they and the media consider an assault rifle and an actual rifle that is semi automatic. He then admits he didn't know there was a difference.

Nice work. Was this a club member? Was his name Elmer?

 

[Darth]

Make him explain:

"And what makes this an 'assault rifle?'"

When he has nothing and ends up with "the way it looks", then you've proved your point.

Was an old school nurse.

I actually did just that and he had nothing to say. I proceeded to tell him the only differences between my 270 which is semi vs this one was the looks and that this one has nice magazines. He said you mean the clips. I corrected him again and said no, magazines.

should have said Clips are used in old military weapons , not modern Armlite Rifles ..

They have clips to load AR mags...

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Dang Darth .. LOL

 

[thegatman]

Sounds like a clip job.

 

[meketrefe]

Leave that to the experts!

Dumbass is doing it wrong. Everyone knows that you have to do that with an open bolt and your finger on the trigger to save time.

Using clips to load magazines is an excellent way to demonstrate the difference between the two.

Good job. I also get pissed off when people label everything they see as an "assault weapon" when they don't know what they talking about.

I sometimes wonder if at the turn of the last century, did the Fudd's get upset when all those Krag's, 03's and Mausers started showing up in the hunting grounds.

Should have given him a pen and notebook.

Thank you. Drives me nuts too. One down, millions to go.

They absolutely did. Hell there was considerable resistance to replacing the Springfield Trapdoor with any sort of repeater.

Well they better get used to this new generation of hunting tools. Took a spin around the woods with my scary black gun today, thought the chucks might be out. Though I still prefer my muzzleloaders, that is one handy gun!!!!!! light, maneuverable, slings easily for getting up those steeper slopes and goes through the brush like its not there. I would bet cold cash that given the opportunity to hunt with one of those guns 90% of them would forget their objections in the time its takes to acquire one for themselves.

LOL! Now these people are dancing around the drain! ^^^

The only time I have every considered one of my ARs an assault rifle was when i was pulling a rear take down pin while fiddling with the stupid mag lock standing near my work bench with the stock under my arm pit as support to see how hard it would be to top load in the woods w/o a sling.

Pulled the pin and the barrel dropped right into my nuts.... FUAC

 

[Acer-m14]

I pinched my finger a good one between the barrel and mag when it floped open on my friends AR .. OUCH!!! .. I should have called 911 and sent the bill to FUAC ..

 

[Robin]

It would make a nice nut cracker, love to see cumo's head in there.

Thanks to the liberal media putting this into everyone's head like it is the truth. Years ago, before the safe act, me father was over and showed him my new rifle. It was a Bushmaster, he took one look at it and said "what do you need a machine gun for?" I stood there with my mouth open for a second. This is a guy that was in the military during Vietnam and he thought it was a full on "machine gun". I then explained the fact that this was not a machine gun it was a modern sporting rifle and I pulled out my Mini-14 and told him the shoot the same round and because it had a wooden stock it was considered "safer". He said he had seen so much on the news about it that he didn't even think about it. He is much better educated now and is a firearms owner now as well (he owns a Sig Legion P226 in 9mm), he is also on our side in the fight even though he lives in the free state of Georgia.

Moral of the story is even people you wouldn't expect are believing what the MSM is selling. They call it programing for a reason.

That is so true Harry! The price of Liberty is indeed, eternal vigilance, and that includes an internal de bugging as well, no one is immune.
