Iran, North Korea, and the father of Pakistan's nuke can and probably will be selling nukes to terrorists. These idiots should direct their energies to nukes, not rifles.

I wonder if they'll use that clip from the movie S.W.A.T. that shows a silenced "Big Boy" 50 BMG taking down a chopper from about two klicks out.

Under the Brady Bill, centralized sales records of guns used to be kept for 90 days, which enabled the FBI to check the names of gun purchasers against terror watch lists. A year ago, at Attorney General John Ashcrofts initiative, Congress reduced the period of record keeping from 90 days to 24 hours. Thats the policy thats in effect today.
IIRC, 24 hours was the original requirement of the Brady Bull. The 90 day business was an arbirtary change made by Janet Reno and the the other Justice Department marxists of the Clinton era.

Most ijits can't hit anything over 20 feet, much less 5,280. Let those who can, do, and those who whine, stay in the kennel.

I gotta save up for one of those. Before the People's Republic of Washinton tries to ban them too.

Wasn't this the third time 60 Minutes had shown this one segment in just the last few months?
Does anybody else thing that CBS is trying to push something?

Looks like the VPC wants to start at the end of the list and work its way up.
