it's been proven that in areas of the US that the populace carry weapons, there are less gun crimes, because criminals are too afraid to pull their piece...

as to why anyone needs a gun? one word... Zombies... it's true... you can never be to prepaired... look at it this way, with that .50 cal mounted on top of my blazer, i can sit and blast groups of zombies from a mile away..

One of the reasons why I wish it would be legal for me to open carry an MP5.

But that's fine. You grew up in an anti-gun society so you are trained to believe that guns are bad and that's just fine. To each society their own, as it were.
If nobody has a gun crimes like the highschool shooting would probably not of happened like they are now.

I doubt a 15 year old has connections enough to get into the gun black market.

worse that could happen is stabbing crimes. not some idiot going nuts with a machine gun .


and me anti-guns? did you miss the part where I am getting excited about coming to america and going to a gun range?

I want to fire a P90 so ******* badly.

By anti guns I meant anti-armed citizens.

Guns are all we have to protect ourselves against an armed criminal base, or even our own government, as was intended in The Constitution.

Would love to get into collecting firearms but NJ has horrific gun laws it's nearly not worth it. Check this:

Chris Christie commutes gun sentence of Brian Aitken Hot Air

Thank the Lord that we finally have a Conservative Governor, and if he didn't commute the sentence this poor guy would have been in jail for...transporting legally purchased firearms, legally stored, to his new home.

Oh no!! No politics! (even though I brought it up lol)

But in response to the safety of Belgium comment, I'd have to adamantly disagree with the reasoning. In Amsterdam everything is legal. Drugs, hookers, etc. Their crime rates are very low. In the US, said practices are illegal. Our crime rates related to drugs are extremely high.

Google "The Phoenix Solution"

Good read. Guns don't kill people. People who talk out of their a$$ get killed by people with functioning brains.

I hope to one day move to Texas where I can enjoy the weather, food, fishing, conservative philosophy, and no state income tax.

Talking

Nevada has the highest unemployment rate, texas is in debt (just like cali) eventually they will have to jump out of their conservative comfort zone and start taxing something, raise the tax or start taxing their citizens.

But let's get back to guns. Like i said in my earlier post, i'm planning on getting the arsenal AK. I'm familiar with 7.62x39 round cause i own a sks. Am i a good or decent shooter??? Nope! It's not easy and it's hard to practice a lot. Although i would like to practice more but during the winter its too damn cold and it' cost money

I was looking to get the sgl 21-61. I was at henderson defense's website. They sell the 61 and 71. Both seems the same other than the 71 being $6 dollars more and the 71 has a NATO length buttstock where as the 61 has the WARSAW length buttstock. The NATO is longer where as the WARSAW is standard.
Which one should i get? On another forum someone suggested to get the WARSAW length. My guess is the WARSAW is more common.
What do you guys think?

Oh anyone has experience shooting AK's? If so, any tips?

WOW when i started this thread i never thought it would be this busy. I'm glad it is.

Anyways my next purchase i was thinking of getting is the Saiga shotgun and a XDm .45 cal. But since i live in cali i can't get it. Well i can but i don't have any family living outside of cali.
So about the saiga shotty. I was thinking about getting the non pistol grip version because it's way cheaper. I don't know if you still need a bullet button on a non pistol grip saiga, but i can get that info.
The reason why i was thinking about getting the non pistol grip is because of the price. It's practically doubled the price. But i'm still thinking between which one i should get.

What do you guys think?
