"They tell me that some companies are producing assault rifles that are "tackdrivers." "


...yeah, it's TRUE...!!!

So, I went down to Home Depot the other day and got me a real NICE .223 tack driver. Didn't really 'NEED' the optional night vision scope, however as I was just doing some roofing and I wasn't in any hurry. I will caution you one ONE thing, though...

Be careful how you hold the tacks in order not to get powder burns. Oh, and don't confuse the tack drivers with the "nail guns"...those things actually SHOOT nails....!!!


[SHEESH]



Somebody could get an eye put out.

Note to the NYT, any weapon used to assault someone becomes an assault weapon.

"Hahahah, I think they meant a "Gum" discussion board.

I like Chiclets."

I thought that was the DU board. Aren't they into Juicy Fruit?

"To most of the public, an assault rifle is a terrifying thing"

He coulda been a hero if he had said 'and we need to change this' instead of 'Let's divorce ourselves from them'.

What a moron. And apparently he feels burned and ran to the left for help.

"Something tells me that this person wouldn't know an assault rifle from a bb gun."

I think he knows the difference.

He added: “To most of the public, an assault rifle is a terrifying thing.

At LEAST he's getting it!

It is supPOSED to be!

Due to technological advances, the AR is today's equivalent of yesterday's rifles the Minutemen and farmers used against the British and the Hessians.

Fully one third of the inside front page of the NYSlimes is dedicated to CORRECTIONS.......every single day!

The myth of the MSM having editors and fact checkers is laughable.

Must admit tho that many of the errors are deliberate fallacies with the corrections coming in small print that most won't notice.

Gunpowder residue, from using too large a caliber in your 'hunting', causes Global Warming®.
