Link. To the part of the second amendment that says that stuff about "in common use for lawful purposes".

Again, nope. I wasn't thrilled when he was elected, but didn't want Hillary either. Guess I was so-so. And the hiring freeze put my new job on hold for a bit, but since I'm a contractor, didn't really affect it.

You seemed sympathetic about it back then. Guess we've had a falling out

Water is wet.
The sun is hot.
Global warming is a hoax
Obama is a communist
AR15 was designed for combat

We all know this shite. What's your point?


Should we bring up the words of the author of the 2nd Amendment in regards to what it means and its purpose?

Just want to point out that I offered no personal commentary on the OP. Bengal could have posted this with "cuck" and a few offerings of "filth" and no one would have batted an eye.

It comes from English Common Law.

You have to put the 2nd Amendment in the context from which it was derived. Same as “the freedom of speech”.

Death toll would have been higher. I wold be willing to wager than not one of Cruz's victims was killed at a range beyond lethal range of a 12 ga. Every trigger pull would have been another death - or two.

Yep, I have sovereign arms remake of a Bulgarian AK-74 with a Russian sniper scope made just for that rifle and ammunition 5.45x39, and it consistently hits targets from 100-600 yards with no scope adjustment.

Little to say I was shocked and taken aback by the accuracy and ease of use/cleaning this platform provides. Granted my barrel is probably better than the Bulgarian original, but it has become one of my favorite weapons.

I would really like to get my hands on a MK 107,108, or 109 someday if the import ban goes south, or if Kalashnikov USA ever gets going again which supposedly moved to Florida awhile back.

Well yes the m16 was developed for combat yet it's not an AR. So I'll just leave that here.

Easily. My FA M39 is significantly better than what I used in the military. All of my ARs are obvious improvements as well.

Don't care. If it's for sale and I can buy it then I can use it how I want to.

I just don't care for some of your views or you playing Gestapo on the gaming board but I am sure you are a swell guy IRL.

I was hard for the first 4 years, then took it relatively easy for 6, then went hard again for another 10.

My career was strange.

Not to mention that the original line of M-16s didn’t have a forward assist.
