Not me. Accuracy is more important. Why miss 33 times?

Most people do not understand the reasons for carrying multiple mags... even fewer are capable of performing a tactical reload.

The video I’ve seen innumerable times seems to show a dozen or so rioters, not hundreds. Are there other angles of the group to get a count?

Absolutely correct and I am not CURRENTLY a gun owner.

if I sell my gun to a friend and lease it back, I am no longer a gun owner.

Both purchased by the French Army in WW1...

and advertised as “only dropped once”!

100% this. A deadly encounter can go from start to finish in seconds. No matter where you are or how hard working your police officers are, they cannot be within seconds of every location at all times. You and you alone have the final responsibility for your safety and the safety of your family.

You’re absolutely right that the Second Amendment protects our right to own and carry all such weapons. However, a century of infringements from the NFA to the GCA to FOPA have stripped away pieces of our rights until what’s left is barely recognizable.

This is why it is CRITICAL that we make sure President Trump wins in November and that we keep the Senate in GOP hands. We have a grand opportunity to take 1-2 more seats on the Supreme Court. If that happens, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Alito, Gorsuch, and those new picks will hear case after case and restore our 2A rights back to what they were always supposed to be. We will gut FOPA, the GCA, and the NFA. No more bans, no more registration, no more tax stamps.

That would be one less Antifa...

Back When, it was SOP to load two stripper clips, and peel one off. I've found, over the years, that with the modern high impact plastic 30 rounders, you don't need to. The lips have always been the problem, and the metal mags didn't take much to distort enough...

+1 to that post.

The ones that use “high cap mags” are novices who rarely practice and think they are badasses.

You lose when you agree to their terminology. They’re standard capacity not high capacity. By using the language of your enemy it implies that 10 rounds as standard capacity.

"Why You Have a Constitutional Right to a High Capacity Magazine"

I agree with that. But tell it to the Supreme Court, populated with stealth leftists. The next one appointed will probably be another woman pushed in by the screeching hen house and presented as a conservative, and she will turn on you.

Thirty-round magazines are not “high capacity.” They’ve been standard on those rifles since the early 1990s. I was in ranks, when my combat unit started using the 30-rounders instead of the 20-rounders. Before then, the 30-rounders generally weren’t reliable enough to risk using.

I do like the 20s, though. They allow for laying lower and holding the rifle more properly while firing from that low. In other words, they allow for better use of very low cover (usually soil).

You do not have a constitutional right to a high capacity magazine. You have an INALIENABLE right, recognized in the U.S. Constitution, to a any capacity magazine.

I don’t have a “Constitutional right” to anything. I have the Natural Right as an American to own and use whatever I want.

To each his own. We use 30 round mags for the AR 15 and the AK 74. Mostly magpuls. Good luck jamming more than 27 rounds in. I use Russian circle ten mags in my AK but I’ve heard that if you keep any magazine fully loaded sitting around for awhile you can get a set in the spring. That’s why we unload and rotate mags periodically.

I keep my 30 round mags at 27.

30 round AR mag is STANDARD CAPACTIY. These mags come with the gun.

The same goes for 50 round PS90 magazines. These are STANDARD CAPACITY and come with the gun.

Liberals love to set the terms of discussions of that which they know NOTHING about.

Nonsense. 40 round pmags for the AR have never failed me.

Neither have 33 round Glock magazines.

Nor 50 round PS90 magazines.

Why do you talk nonsense?
