The military uses shotguns. Like the ones hunters use and use to protect their homes.

The ruling is ridiculous and seems to me to be one that is really unenforceable because of the need to have some clear definition of what constitutes a “military looking.” To use this law otherwise delves into subjectivity rather than clear, objective standards.

She is a beauty! I’ve always wanted a Kimber.

Local gunsmith who builds custom rifles here in Montana told me to look at Tikka rifles. He said if more people knew about these rifles he would be out of business.

Mine is the T3 light in stainless fluted barrel, Rem 7mm mag, $600. Shoots touching holes at 100 yds with Berger bullets in my hand loaded ammo. Scope costs 1/3 what the rifle did. I’m not cheap ... just frugal.

Never thought I’d own anything that shoots this good.

It amazes me the mental gymnastics the gun grabbers go through to ignore that fact, while saying the 2nd doesn’t say what it clearly says. Men for whom those were recent events would be doing anything but recognizing the individual right to arms? Really?

I’ve posted this before, but look up the reasoning the Supreme Court came up with to make short barreled shotguns basically illegal.

Save for the bayonet, your deer gun looked no different than your military weapon. In the militia, it was likely the same gun.

Nice, might have to take a look at those, heard good things about them as well. This Kimber shoots pretty tight as well...and with the 5 round box it’s pretty quick to get back on target.

Some gun grabbers simply want to dominate a population without resistance or recourse, while a large number of their dupes are just useful idiots.

Forget the assault rifles,long range highly accurate bolt action rifles are the killing machines in an insurrection situation.

Unfortunately for you, the Army uses bolt-action rifles. Please turn yours in now.

I’m willing to have my skills tested when the time comes.I have no illusions about surviving,I would measure my success by the amount of damage I could inflict.

I remember the days when, even though I was STEM type, I respected the law.

Huh?

Most if the Cannons used by the Patriots in the Revolutionary War were Privately owned.

Do you need a Background Check to own a Howitzer?

I guess this is okay because Obama decided that our armies cannot use military appearing soldiers anymore.

Liberals say that it is impossible for the Government to Deport 11 Million Illegal Invaders.

Those same Liberals think the Government should be able to Confiscate 300 Million Firearms from American Citizens.

Good afternoon.

“The point being that the ruling states that militias cannot have military grade weapons. “

The 4th circuit court can kiss my ass.

Try and get the U.S. Marshalls to enforce it.

This is insane. George Washington, who had a lot to do with our having a Constitutional Federation, today, openly advocated that we adopt the Swiss system, of having military grade weapons in every home, with the teen-aged boys trained in their use. Do these Judges really believe they have a better understanding of what the Second Amendment was intended to provide than the greatest American?
