I wish to purchase an FN-FAL and an AR-15, and I would like to do so with a fellow freeper who can accept payments over a period of months. There would be no delivery of the firearm until the payments are completed.
>> a self-professed conservative who doesn’t have two nickles to rub together yet ...
Apparently he does, and is willing to pay the seller in advance over time. Not much monetary interest to be gained banking the money until the trade is made. Furthermore, paying in advance reserves the weapon. Nothing here violates conservatism.
Maybe you’re not convinced Laz is truly interested in purchasing the AR-15, but is nonetheless interested in the prospect of openly owning one.
Sometimes it really *is* the gun. :P
Alas I have no extra to part with, or I would set aside for you.
Since you’re short on cash, have you anything to put up for barter? Just a suggestion.
Anyways, good luck. My buying spree hit the ground running the first time this chucklehead got elected. Buy high - sell never! LOL
thanks, link is appreciated...
I am under no disability to own or receive firearms.
wtc911 is a dick. Period. And I note that in response to your proof of wtc911 outright lying, was wtc911's silence. Just like a troll. When proven to be a liar, ignore the proof and go on to the next lie.
Excellent summary. :-)
What it comes down to is this, - IMO - . You are liked on FR. He is not. He sees his ‘station’ in life as superior. That upsets him. He does NOT like to be questioned, or held to his posts.
For some people, high school never ends.
I thought you were going to leave FR like you SAID you would.
You didn’t LIE, did you?
Are you a LIAR wtc911?
And I think that’s sad. He holds some opinions that I agree with. Why not come down off his high horse and just be one of us? Conservatives can’t afford this kind of behaviour. We HAVE to work together.
Honestly DJ, a conservative would not say the things he has. Whether it was using the verbatim language of the left to attack Palin over a year ago or attacking Laz yesterday, actions speak louder than words.
The Conservative movement lessens itself by allowing that kind of crap to go on. And keeping people who say such things is WHY the movement is so screwed up. They spread division. No different than any other liberal. And we need to admit that to ourselves.
Unity is key to success............
And you cannot get unity when you have someone dividing the ranks.
It’s called “Delphi-ing”.
That too. But I just stick with being liberal because that’s exactly what disruptor behavior here is when you get down to it.
I look at it like this. Occam’s Razor had it right. And when the actions of a person mirror those of a lib to the letter, literally in the PDS stuff, then the person doing it is a lib. Because that is the most simple explanation. The crap he pulled with you is textbook lib. Alynski’s ‘Pick a target and polarize it.’
Because it causes chaos. And chaos and pitting people against each other based on made up bullshit and strawman arguments IS what the left does.
He hits and runs. He does not defend his statements or actions. Same thing.
It is what it is and it IS why we have the chaos among conservatives we do. Logic says get rid of the source of the chaos and do not give it credence. Until we do that, we will continue to chase our tails.
Oops, I forgot to ask...When you get your new toys do you plan on reloading? Cuz, you know...I know some stuff about that ;)
Well Laz, this is a messy thread you’ve started, and I wouldn’t expect any less of you, moreover I believe I actually have something unique to add:
The AR-15 and M-16 variants are wildly overpriced, overrated, inaccurate carbines with limited lethality per shot at almost any range. “Tumbling” was a lucky break for the .223: the cartridge is light and you can pour ‘em all over the target. THAT is why we have the M-16. They’re cheap, the ammo is cheap, and hey, they jam.
Protecting your home? .00 Buck in a Mossberg 500 or .357 Mag in a revolver is your friend. Your farm? Any hunting rifle with a scope: the noise of a heavy 30-06 will scare the hell out of almost anyone. Want to spray ‘em all over? Why not pick a more reliable weapon - namely, an AK variant.
I appreciate the historicity of the M16A1s and later versions but I have also fired thousand of rounds through them, and frankly, they leave me WAY nonplussed.
As you seem to seek a true “black rifle” at these high prices, why not look at a Ruger 22 semiauto with lots of picaninny toys or on the lower end one of those Remington Vipers (had one and loved it - people say they suck but mine didn’t) at a coupla hundred bucks a pop - with as much ammo as you want (FMJ for semis is best)on a fraction of the budget.
and on the high end - why not a fine Mini 14?
Flame on - but the Bushmaster is overrated...
And the sights sucked when I trained on ‘em and still do.
Love ya Laz! You always know how to start a safe firefight!

Very interesting response. Thank you.
I am a little concerned about your discussion of the Mini 14, though. A poorer rifle is hard to find.
