The Reason an Israeli Man Couldn’t Bring Himself to Turn in His Weapons

Israeli police are in the midst of a campaign encouraging citizens to hand in their unregistered weapons, with no fear of prosecution and no questions asked.

One person they likely didn’t expect to show up was a 78-year-old grandmother who arrived at the police station in Kiryat Gat with a virtual arsenal in tow — four crates worth.

Gun "buy-backs" in Israel? WHAT? hissbullah will love that. More defenseless Jewish folks to kill unopposed. Probably extremely popular with some NY Jews.

[txnativegop]

Until the left finally rids itself that particular group of useful idiots. Then it won’t be so popular.

[Gaffer]

More damned popups on this link than a porno site.

One thing I am curious about is what type of mount do we need for a Colt 38mm weapon? I have the much smaller version but made by Llama in the form of a .38 Super.

Now, If someone could make this in Hebrew.

CITIZENS! TURN IN YOUR GUNS!

[rktman]

Really? I didn’t get any when I went to it. Maybe I have the super dooper popup blocker turned up to 10. Sorry for the popups.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Liberals want us to trust the government to protect us while all the time advocating that the government use the military to crush any resistance to their tyranny.

[Gaffer]

All I know is I hit the link and it never really would completely load. Just a hundred clicks in the background that kept going until I finally gave up. My pop-up blocker just locked it down.

[txnativegop]

Even the journalists in Israel are weapons illiterate.

The aluminum tube is a "star cluster" type flare. You take one end of the tube off, put it over the other end, then give it a sharp rap with the palm of your hand, and it fires an aluminum projectile (hopefully straight up) that then dispenses burning chunks of illumination flare. Things do have a bit of a kick.

They are fun fun fun. Also quite dangerous if you fire them directly at somebody. And once the flares have been dispersed, you hear the "wup wup wup" sound of the aluminum projectile falling down, so you have to be careful not to get bonked on the noggin.

Another “bitter clinger”.

including an Uzi machine gun, a 38 mm Colt handgun

Now that's a big handgun!

[going hot]

One can also take the rocket apart, remove the star cluster, fill the rocket with sand, reload it into the tube, and fire it onto the next bunker conex over, makes a solid thump when it hits the side. Just sayin”

a 38 mm Colt handgun

I want one of these, although I'm not certain that I could handle a 1.49606 caliber handgun.

Sharona Schwartz is not an Israeli journalist. She’s a CNN/Wolf Blitzer stooge, and another reason why Beck is sliding into the deep end.

[hamboy]

I really thought Israelis there can possess unregistered weapons including uzi submachine guns for their own protection against terrorists?

[marktwain]

The 38mm reference is a direct quote from the Israeli source.

[rktman]

Nope. More restrictions than you would think.

[Afterguard]

Fun to set one off under a desk in a crowded office and run like heck.

[hamboy]

Nope. More restrictions than you would think.

WTH. If it were me I'd have secret armory there including bazooka_and_cartridges, grenades, etc... :-)
