Harder to access now than ever in our history. Why more shootings now?

I totally forgot about pistols being invented in the 1970s. Thanks for reminding me.

You used to be able to walk into a general store and buy a gun with no background checks or questions.

One of the people put out there, i believe was behind it. I think he thought it was funny and would get him publicity.

He's a super shite head, loser, so i don't doubt it. And the person who posted his name, isn't some hack, so i think they got duped by him via one of his boys.

I am very active in the 3-gun, USPSA, and IPSC communities. wanna know how many of those guys use lasers? 0. Complete gimmick. Made for dorks like this shooter.


Do you know how ridiculous this sounds? It may not help an everyday competition shooter but an average joe who rarely shoots and is in a high stress situation like defending his home, a laser absolutely helps

I've got bad news for you - that cat has been out of the bag for a long time and it's never going back in it.

You'll get downvotes to oblivion, but I'm not sure how someone could argue against the fact that gun access in this country is incredibly plentiful.

I'm not arguing whether that's a good thing or not, just that it's a fact.

No. Several posters have posted a different name.

Nothing has been confirmed.

No offense. But these statements are breathtakingly ignorant. Firearms were FAR easier to get in the 60’s. You could walk into any general store or a even Sears & Roebuck and buy one for next to nothing. You could even mail order them from catalogs. And the words “background check” hadn’t even been thought of then.
