Most likely a .38 special or maybe a 1911. But notice he never said he used one. His weapons were 500 lb bombs, by necessity dumb ones, attached to Heinemann's Hotrod, aka; The Scooter, the Tinkertoy, or the A-4 Skyhawk. Pretty much like these:
McCain keeps mentioning hunting, hunting....as if the Second Amendment has a damn thing to do with hunting!
Senator, the founding fathers intended for the citizens of the country to have firearms so that they, the citizens, would have a means to overthrow a tyrannical government if such as government should every come into being. Sheesh!
I’m not gonna trust him.
A liberal RINO who forms a coalition with the drunkard Ted Kennedy threatens gun rights.
btt
Which is precisely the way I see it.
McCain is unlikely (or less likely) to appoint judges who will confiscate firearms; and/or will define the Second Amendment out of existence.
And then...we can institute some common-sense gun laws so that we don't have kids being shot on the streets of cities like Chicago," Obama said...
As always, Obama hasn't a clue as to what laws already exist and will steadfastly refuse to be specific on what "common-sense gun laws" just might be.
Says the man sporting an "F-" from Gun Owners of America.
What's next, a claim that they threaten free speech rights? Amnesty for tens of millions of illegals? Global governance via the global warming scam?
Pot, meet kettle.
McCain promoting the Bill of Rights?? The sky must be falling.
"That's one of the disagreements we've had," LaPierre told the Louisville Courier-Journal. "On the other hand, Senator McCain is the only one in the race that has a pro-gun record of any kind."
I'm so tired of this "background check" BS being mischaracterized by the press. I just have to wonder if it's really due to stupidity rather than being devious as the law as it stands gets quoted time after time after time.
Purchases at gun shows across the US are subject to background checks. No ifs, buts, hunting, fishing, tyranny or anything else. One more time for clarity for our presstitute friends:
PURCHASING A GUN AT A GUNSHOW IS SUBJECT TO A BACKGROUND CHECK.
Perhaps I'm just not putting it right.
IF YOU WANT TO BUY A GUN AT A GUNSHOW, YOU MUST UNDERGO A BACKGROUND CHECK.
Think they understood that? Nah. Me neither. But, I do have a gunshow to go to tomorrow. Yay!!!!! And I may buy a gun at the gunshow or outside of the gunshow!!!
This is the pot calling the kettle black indeed. Just more election posturing.

Obama voted to ban almost all ammo and voted against allowing self-defense pleas when someone uses a gun in a gun ban zone - all of Chicago. He supports the so called "assault" weapons ban. He supports a total handgun ban. He supports frivolous lawsuits against firearms manufacturers. He opposed Roberts and Alito.
McCain isn't perfect. We all know his gun shows stance and McCain-Feingold. At the same time he voted wrong on gun shows, he voted against the AWB and to stop frivolous lawsuits. He signed the DC v Heller brief that broke with the BS third way approach given by the Bush administraion. He also voted for Roberts, Clarence Thomas, and Alito.
McCain isn't a gun owner's first choice. He isn't the last choice either among Republicans and is better than Romney or Giuliani.
We could have done better, but also could do worse.
Seems to me we are starting to see the first signs mcnutts will start pandering to conservatives on the usual issues.Anyone want to bet on that?I think his campaign might be noticing the lack of funds coming into the coffers.
McCain will sell out gun owners as part of his “reaching across the aisle”, sure as shootin’.
I don’t trust any of them and McCain is also in full political mode now and he will say what ever he thinks the crowd he’s facing wants to hear and then turn around and ask Feinstien , Kennedy , Lieberman and the rest of his rino cohorts for their liberal opinions . I almost think McCain is running as a democrat in the R party .
"I think people have the right to lawfully bear arms. I do believe that there is nothing inconsistent with also saying that we can institute some common-sense gun laws so that we don't have kids being shot on the streets of cities like Chicago," Obama said while campaigning in South Dakota.
Okay asshat. So what you're saying is besides IL's Firearms laws, that Chicago's additional and existing 39 pages (in size 4 font) of Firearms Laws aren't enough, are to lenient and don't go far enough and 'we' need more. Is that about it sh*t for brains.
Well sorry 'senator' I don't know how you can get any more 'common sense' than having it required that all Cap Pistols be registered with the Chicago Police Dept. /s
Yeah, that's really flucking 'sensible' that I'd have to register my Nichols Stallion 45 CAP GUN with the cops if I moved back to that hell hole. (like when Monkeys fly out of my butt)
But John, I'm a free citizen in a free country. So why is it that, if I took out a full page ad in a newspaper 60 days before an election, and ran this article word-for-word, and encouraged my fellow citizens to vote for you, and against your opponent, I could be fined and jailed? Why is that, John?
I do believe the answer to my question is the McCain-Feingold law, John. Which is another piece of the puzzle of the things you just don't get.
And since you don't get this, you don't get my vote. Do you get that, John?
How about suggesting that the SS protecting B(57 states)HO and HRC hang up their firearms and only be armed with pepper spray. Unless one or the other is going hunting. Then they can be armed to the teeth, just like any other American. Or so I suppose.
