He has control over EVERYTHING in this government.

Hey, brother Buck, that is a pretty broad statement. I rolled up my sleeve and was ready to arm wrestle you, because the CMP is a statutory creature of the legislative branch of the government.

As such, I doubted O could reach down far enough to interfere with its operation. Of course, he could interrupt the flow of handguns owned by the military, subject to the legal status of those arms and whether he could reach them.

But since the CMP is also largely influenced by the Secretary of the Army, O does indeed have a handle on it.

So, I don't want to arm wrestle anymore. ;^)

Let me modify my post. I consider most handguns short range propositions. Handguns being what you use to fight your way to a good rifle. I have a couple of tack drivers all revolvers. I can group my .44 magnum Redhawk real tight at 50 yards. As tight as two inches at 50 yards off sandbags. And I have hunted and taken deer size game at 50+ yard with that .44 mag.

I used to shoot cowboy action matches. I would use the 1911 for special wild bunch matches. And is was up there with my Ruger vaquero single action revolver for that type of shooting. Nice groups at 7/10 yards but not super tight. Everything being relative.

You can see them all for free including Season 8 on Netflix.
Rickie and Julian like their pistols. Bubbles seems to prefer a Kalashnakov, but prefers his kitties over guns.
The Bubbles persona in their latest movie is kinda creepy, don’t ya think?

Well, as the good ole BATFE says, “Once a “machine gun, always a machine gun.”

I'm no expert but I wasn't aware that the M-14 had full auto capability.

The GI issue was select fire.
Take a look at the M1A.
