Don't you just hate it when we have to keep explaining those things to people that evidently still watch the MSM news outlets? I figured if you belong to FR you should already know the things you just stated. Looks like I'm wrong again.
Some people just aren't "in to" guns. Unlike me, they don't read the books & magazines. They don't watch the "Tales of the Gun" and other documentaries on the History Channel & Military Channel.
IMO If we can possibly educate them, we should. Our enemy's greatest weapon is ignorance.

As I mentioned to someone else, there are always liberal lurkers here. I try to keep that in mind when posting to threads like this.
I never assume that people reading these threads know as much as you, or I, about firearms.
