God made men, Samuel Colt made them equal and the Liberal Democrats made them all criminals.

P.S. The reason the US Military went to 9mm was to standardize with NATO protocol. Besides, is my dream gun is a .45 Winmag. Gonna be my next gun....lol!

"and the Liberal Democrats made them all criminals."

Don't forget the Republicans also.

How the Brady Bill Passed (and subsequently - "Instant Check")
When the Brady Bill was passed into law on November 24, 1993,
the Senate voted on the Conference Report
and passed the Brady Bill by UNANIMOUS CONSENT.

NOT ONE SENATOR FROM EITHER PARTY VOTED AGAINST THIS

And that's the reason my firearms are (in ascending order by caliber) .223, 9mm, .50BMG and 12 gauge.

Sorting by cartridge length would result in a different order. :^)

If the fit hits the shan then ammunition for all of the above will be field-available.

When the military changes, then I will, too.
