The law is an ass.

Ignore it.

What gets me....is that there’s at least one or two home invasions on a nightly basis in Detroit...minimum. So, you have three punks wandering around, and figuring...what kind of trouble can we incite or what poor loser can we rob?

You can figure....out of every ten houses....at least five of these folks are armed. So it’s a fifty-fifty guess. Out of the five armed....you can figure one will have an automatic rifle. Statistically speaking....it’s Russian Roulette. You are simply guessing on your rate of survival, and how many rounds they will fire before they hit you. It’s a pretty lousy assessment of your life, and the calculated risks involved.

So, this brings me to an observation. Every single house in America needs an automatic rifle...with the NRA providing free (or as cheap as possible) instruction on how to fire the weapon successfully. We need the statistics to basically say....it’s ten out of ten houses armed, and they are prepared to send you onto your grave. Rather than playing Russian Roulette....let’s make it absolute...you won’t be around as the sun rises....if you want to play home invasion.

Anyone who defends themselves with a firearm in New York State is considered a criminal.

That’s what you get when you elect a thug as governor, a communist as mayor, a blooming idiot as a three-time mayor, and leftist assholes to the state legislature.

If there is ever a state that needs a gigantic political enema, it is New York. But in order not to discriminate, we might as well give one to most of New England, good parts of New Jersey (Ray Nagin’s chocolate cities), Maryland (esp.Baltimore and Montgomery County), Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, and almost all of urban California.

2014 should be endorsed as “Give the Democrats the Political Enema of their Life”

In Texas and the rest of the South it’s more like 95%. Why even risk it? Every lady I ever dated down here had a pistol in her purse. You don’t see that “road rage” or much of that “knockout game” nonsense you see up North or out on the West Coast, it’d be suicidal.

Assuming you mean semi-auto.

I have that same carbine in 40 S&W. It does what it’s supposed to do.

I was trying to read this, but all I could think about was tar and feathers.

Is that the fore grip that ejects out the bipod? That’s what mine has -plus the standard scope from their website.

But the Beltway geniuses at the NSSF label these “Modern Sporting Rifles” so how dare they be used for an actual purpose besides sh*ts and giggles?

No, it’s just a straight grip with a little storage compartment in it.

The red dot is a BSA 30mm Red-Green-Blue that I had laying around. I bought the carbine used and it came with the factory red dot which I believe is a 25mm. I liked my larger one better so I swapped them out.

There has been a political enema....... the good people are leaving the leftist detritus behind.

The Exodus from the Pharaohs grasp is sapping the vitality and tax base. New York is dying

When guns are outlaws, THUGS with guns will terrorize the people. Sorry, if you terrorize my family, we will shoot. (The only one who can’t shoot yet is our toddlers).
