Sorry, but you shouldn't be able to walk into a gun store and buy enough ammo to hit 600 people. The only time you need that much ammo is if you're a mass murderer.

They have no problem imposing intrusive laws against strangers they categorize.

Just going to the rifle range to practice I can burn through 2,000 plus rounds and I'm not a competition shooter.

Its not a lone exception google competition shooting numbers. So anyone with 1000 rounds is a mass killer by your logic.
lol that 600 round idea is pure dumb. 600 is like a normal amount for going to the shooting range recreationally... not even being a competitive shooter.

What if you buy 50 and dont miss.

Are you under the misconception that the 2nd amendment was written for hunting or just personal protection?
It was not. It was written to ensure citizens the right to be armed so as to oppose a tyrannical government. Limiting magazines to 5 rounds (or whatever you think is a good number) goes against that reason for the amendment.
What is needed is more mental health assessments in this country.
I have no problem with showing ID for ammo purchases but that really will not stop someone from getting it. It does not work will all the other things that are illegal but still widely available.
I think you mentioned some type of record being kept regarding ammo purchases. That could me misleading. I have an AR and shoot it regularly. This past weekend I went through 450-500 rounds. Between shooting a few hogs and target practice. That ammo is now gone, but how would the government know that I was not stockpiling it for some nefarious reason?
It all goes back to mental illness. Over the past 25-30 years this country has drastically changed the way it handles these people. Here in Tuscaloosa there used to be Bryce hospital and Partlow, neither of them have but a small number of patients now. The government pushed these people out into society so they would not have to foot the bill. We are all paying for that now.

I know, thats why that idea is retarded. It just prevents people who aren't going on murdering sprees from having hi capacity. The people going on murdering sprees are going to MURDER PEOPLE, what the hell would they care about a secondary charge of illegal magazine possession?
Is it easier to buy marijuana in Louisiana or Colorado?

This could have stopped or impeded the Sandy Hook guy. You are running down a slippery slope in flip flops to make your point though.
Of course that crazy fricker could have broke into a Bass Pro at midnight and driven straight to that school.

Agree with your response of da fug.

I specifically answered this earlier in this thread.

quote:So the government too inept to find and locate illegal aliens is going to locate a significant number of illegally modified guns by putting agents at every gun store, every gun range, and roving about the woods?
Have it be a large fine? These could be found at gun ranges. Hear a burst of fire near auto, have the guy checked. Game Wardens too. Any old Baws out in the woods, have it be another thing they check just like tags, or any of the other things they check.
Amazing idea.
Our government can’t even seem to find illegals at Home Depot on a Saturday morning.... but I’m sure they’ll get this right.

Those 4 shooters were absolutely batshit crazy. The Virginia Tech guy may have never received treatment, but the other 3 were psych patients.

No practical purpose for a high capacity magazine other than inflicting high numbers of casualties in a short amount of time.
I can think of several scenarios where I'd prefer to have a 30 round magazine.
Are they LIKELY scenarios? No.
But, then again, neither is getting shot at a concert by a dude on the 32nd floor.
I'll tell you this. If some radical group that believes in violence comes a marching to my neighborhood and the cops aren't there yet, I'm probably not pulling out my 7 round single stack.
And go ahead. Tell me how that "can't happen". I'll simply point you towards...........the world.
