Which Firearm Would You Prefer to be Confiscated First?
Vanity | 6/5/2019 | Week71

Posted on 06/05/2019 6:29:00 PM PDT by week 71

When the proverbial 'they' start confiscating firearms - what type of guns would you be more willing to relinquish? (any red blooded American the obvious answer is none) But for a thought experiment. - Handguns, AR-15(and similar firearms), or shotguns? Since I understand the 2nd Amendment to mostly be addressing citizens defending themselves from tyranny, I lean toward handguns. Note I say this as a CCW holder who carries legally and in legal places in my state all the time.

I find it interesting the NPCs (programmed for tyranny) want to rid the US of AR's - which are involved in less deaths than blunt instruments while saying nothing about handguns which are used by murderers around 9000 times a year. Just to be clear for the combative freepers - it is the violent men (and policies that contributed to their violence) who kill and not the handgun. Any thoughts?

Hmmm? That could be loaded question. Since I am persuaded it’s inevitable in my life since I’m in my forties. It’s an interesting question. Where do we draw the line? Nukes to BB guns. I have my line - not drawn in sand but in concrete.

It would be entertaining to see what happens in sh*tcongo, Illinois, if the new stalinists tried to go door to door there.

I have an old Italian war rifle that would be better used as a harpoon. I’d take $250.

I have a question which I never see addressed.

If the offer is a “Buyback”, and one chooses not to sell, how are they going to get the weapon whichever class it is?

How many times can they dive to the bottom of a lake looking for them?

I would suggest they pack a lunch and kiss their babies and spouse before leaving the house.

What kind of faggot question is this?

Gives us a chance to vent.

“old Italian war rifle “

The long rifles m91 (WW1) were fairly accurate. The carbines made from them, not so much. Except for the “Kennedy special”

Yep. I suggest “buying back” all guns in Chicago & Baltimore first and see how that goes.

It’s the type of weapon, it’s who we should take them from. Take them away from Democraps. Let them live with gun consfication first. Afterall it’s their ilk that is being irresponsible with gun violence and deaths. Take them away from them and see how well they receive it....especially blacks.

Ages ago I read of Italian Army officers that took their personal 6.5mm Carcanos to the annual NATO matches in the 1960s (met with much laughter)...and then proceeded to kick their competitors’ butts. Apparently, once you determine the bore’s true dimensions and load appropriately, those “junk” Carcanos can be quite effective.

If we can turn them in bullets first then I say anything with more magazine capacity.
