The media would have a freaking heart attack if they looked in my garage.

200 rounds in the storage box didn’t help him where he needed them.

Fortunately, he was a liberal idiot and DIDN’T take take them to the range, nor to the ball park.

[Western Phil]

In cahoots with the Illinois senators in addition to Bernie?

[qaz123]

I guess to some, 200 rds may as well be the same as every round at the Redstone Arsenal. If they ever came to my house, they’d faint.

[NorthMountain]

At ball-park range, the SKS is a fine rifle. Unless there’s something dreadfully wrong with the particular specimen of SKS, a competent shooter can easily hit man-sized targets ... every time ... out to 200yds.

[shibumi]

Funny you should mention Redstone.

I was stationed with the 291st Military Police Company there in 1969.

[Rinnwald]

Having too much ammo is bad.

I have a 1260 round case of Yugo 7.62x54R. Spazzes my back every time I move it.

[Bratch]

I have 200 rounds in my desk.

I carry heavy caliber in my pants.

[shalom aleichem]

Good God. That’s target practice, or plinking in the back yard.

[old-ager]

Against an unarmed small group, with any skill at all, he needed
- a 100 year old firearm with an internal magazine holding 5-8 rounds
- cartridges in clips in the same quantity as targets, plus a few

Going to the range, we need:
- Several ARs and 5-10 full, normal-capacity magazines

[DesertRhino]

GOOD LORD. Where did he get his hands on such a stockpile. Has anyone calculated how much money that would have taken? I suspect a foreign entity subsidized this. Nobody has that kind of cash laying around.

[Eagles6]

SKS 7.62X39

[Eagles6]

Had one. Plenty accurate. 2-3 groups at 100 yds open sights.

[dforest]

Was The shooter colluding with these people?

[Charles Martel]

Same here - 200 is considered a *basic* load, one fight, for my FAL rifle. :P

I've got a pile of those 200-round battle packs of Hirtenberger 7.62 - both the FAL and G3 seem to like it.

[TangoLimaSierra]

That’s a RUSSIAN rifle!!

Obviously, Trump was involved.

[TangoLimaSierra]

Is ammo dangerous when it’s in storage? Glad mine is all here at home.

Do not turn your back on it.

[Magnum44]

I carry heavy caliber in my pants.

Thats what I tell all the girls. LOL

[ptsal]

Bernie’s office and the two senators from Illinois had a special visitor.

The FBI is so corrupt I don’t believe anything they report or say.
