Assault rifle is a term used to scare people. A black gun that looks mean must only be used to kill people. If you touch one, or one is in your neighborhood you and your community are in danger. Actually, these so called assault rifles are semi-automatic, not automatic...a very big difference. As to why I own a few, I went thru basic with one, I appreciate the mechanics, they can be very accurate (many target shooters use an AR-15 style gun), they are customizable, they have minimum recoil, they are useful to hunt certain game, etc....

Pretty soon you will hear about gangs fighting with crossbows and shit.

I would love to shoot a person with a bow and arrow.

[joshh]

The stupidest argument in the world...why does it matter if a gun is CALLED an assault rifle?

Does a Remington 700 not shoot bullets? Is loading time really the point here?
I have "assult" rifles because they are fun as hell to shoot and if i ever need one, I have it available for protection. But in reality I would use one of my pistols for protection first.
And by "protection" I mean people and anything that may endanger my family.

Abepark I see you edited you post about my .44 while hiking. LOL says the guy from mass. I bet you have never even been in the back country, I bet you saw a Grizz at 300 yards on a hiking trail full of 100's of people. I am all alone or in a small group of 2-4 where phones dont work, in the middle of millions and millions of acres of wilderness. Where you can only rely on your self an the gear you take with you, would you bet you r life on a big can of pepper spray???? I sure as hell dont, I have herd stories about grizz attacks in Alaska where all 6 rounds from a .44 were pancaked against the breast bone, the only reason the guy is alive is because another member of the hunting party got it with a .338mag in the face before it got to the guy.

Come with me into the back country then may be you would understand why I hike armed.

I HAVE SEEN GRIZZLY'S off my deck, I have seen a mountain lion the size of a bull mastiff, walking into our back woods off the road near my house, I hear wolves howling in the night 3 nights a week, I love it like that. But that dose not mean I will trust my life to mother nature.

edit: Vdub, Open carry is legal in MT as well its not uncommon when you do see people in the back country to be very well armed. I have a savage model 99 as a scabbard gun on my horse when we take them into the back country

I wish we still killed each other with sticks,stones and muscle tissue, and How did you ever get a license or what not to own a class 3 weapon?

Know people and go though a lot of federal background checks and waiting periods.... then have the money to pay for them.

Says the guy from Mass. :)

yeah, that comment kind of said he has not been in the wild that much. I was in Alaska this fall and it was right before the bears were to go down for the winter. Making them hunting for food.... any food to be able to pack on enough fat to go into hibernation, In Alaska open carry is legal everywhere. And is not looked at like it is here in the lower 48. I felt odd carrying openly but looking around everyone else was as well. When a 1000 pound hungry bear is looking at you as food, there is nothing you can do that he cant do better. A gun is the equalizer in that aspect.

But again I pointed out enough for him to hopefully understand a bit more of why.

[Vedubin01]

Please watch the video I posted....

in most states you do not have to have a license to own a firearm. So for the most part most of mine are not licensed because you cant license them. I also own class 3 weapons, meaning NFA items. Even if you ban firearms like in the list on the first page. I still can own class 3 weapons. The federal Government has enough trust and faith in me to own such weapons. I also have been able to afford such expensive weapons.

I shoot in tactical matches. I also take and teach firearm training. I educate people in the use and mechanics of firearms. My favorite type of shooting is 3 gun matches. Were I have a carbine, shotgun, and a pistol and I am judged on targets hit and the time I am able to do it in.

I guess kind of like racing cars in the gun world. Its legal and I enjoy it. I posted my latest build. That gun costs more than $3k US to build. And thats if you can find the parts. They are on some of the longest back orders known in the industry. Thats my Porsche or super car of my collection. Nothing you would ever find on the street in some gangbangers car or drive by.

Its just what I enjoy doing.

[abepark]

but why do you own it? just cause you can and you're licensed? deep down inside there was a reason you bought that AR15 or any other Assault class weapon. what was it? I'm not telling you whats good for you and whats not, I'm just trying to understand.

[Vedubin01]

ok... so a couple people have said they own guns "just in case", just in case of what? I know the world is going down the tubes and I hope to not see the shit at the end of the pipe. We have out grown and use too many resources to survive much longer, there's no doubt about that. If one resource fails at any point in "our" lifetime we are screwed!!

So back to my question is why do you own a Assault rifle if you don't hunt? its for fun, I enjoy to skeet shoot! who has fun with an assault rifle? Can't you have the same amount of fun shooting a regular rifle? Please people in the military don't say you're having fun killing people with your M16's! Ok its a piece of art! Great its an engineering marvel. That means you don't own ammo right? cause who would want to ruin a piece of engineering with firing it and have a carbon build up. My point is assault rifles are owned for one purpose TO DEFEND!

Yes we need to stand up for our constitutional rights, there's no one hear that would say that differently. But who says I can't pee my name on a wall? that's freedom of speech right? Oh my State has something called indecent exposure, my point is the state's should regulate just as they're doing now what kind's of guns we can have, not the government.

For the dumbass who posted about carrying a gun while hiking there are things you can do without killing the fucking animal and keep your ass safe.I know plenty of people who have seen black bears and have not ever been hurt and didn't have to carry a .44 to feel safe. I have seen brown bears in nature myself and unless your a complete dumbass you don't need a revolver to feel safe around one. That's the kind of stupid Idea's that put our asses in this position (bent over with pants down).

It comes down to "who are you to tell me what is good or not good for me"? If I am responsible and use it for sporting purposes whats the difference in me owning something like this vs a race car for what "I" call fun.

I can kill more people with a truck or a car by driving into a crowded street than I possibly could with a gun. Your question is why do you need one? Why do you need a spare tire or a AAA card. Just in case. In case of what you might ask? The unknown, our founding fathers gave us that right to carry what we felt was enough to defend ourselves against our own government. Or other governments! We are a free people and we must have the same or adequate firepower to protect ones self and ones family.

Im no John Rambo and don't play one on tv. But as my right to own one If I am responsible enough to understand. I understand the effects that a "assault "Style" weapon" has if used wrongly. I also understand the effects of me using that "ASW" in a wrong manor. They are not toys but tools and if you don't understand or respect a chainsaw its going to produce grave results as well.

The point is more people get killed with cars, cigarettes, and alcohol. But because its accepted by the masses it gets overlooked. Today guns are not the common in most houses. Thus breads fear for not understanding them. Fear breads curiosity, and curiosity to the uneducated causes problems.



abepark and others, I ask you would take time to watch this!
