AR-15 & M16 Bolt Carrier groups

That's all interesting, George, but while you're fishing around in the dustbins of pharmacology, don't forget that there are two things going on today that play into the desires of people suffering from some kinds of mental illnesses and distress: First, if you really need attention (and many of them do), we have cable news and the Internet, by which your glorious revenge will be played around the world in a couple of hours; second, we have tools available today that can really make a big splash.

A hundred years ago, your military Trapdoor Springfield wasn't going to do the job that you can do today with a Bushmaster M4 look-alike. And the news wasn't likely to get past your county line.

It's a qualitatively different situation, and it doesn't require pharmacology to explain it.

Ayup. Ive got a Tactical 12ga double barreled shotgun. Only $3500!!

Laugh!

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie

True enough in most of the last wars. However..the Military is always fighting the last war..never the current one.

There is a reason that they have been bringing back the M14 into combat in the middle east. Except for MOUT operations (in villages and cities where the M4 is a handy weapon)..the longer reach of the M14 is very handy.

One simply has to note the number of long range sniper kills out a very very long way to understand that the terraine makes a big big difference.

In Vietnam..a long shot in most..most cases was 200 yrds.

A very good listing. However since the primary cause of death for most of the recent mass murderes has been self inflicted gunshot to the head...the above may be a problem.

I congratulate you on some good thinking in your letter.

Treat it like a disease and find out the root causes. Personally..I suspect we will find its been the pyschotropic meds that have been handed out lately by the car load.

You can do a Gunner and use a .25 ACP for poking holes in your leather belt, too. That doesn't mean it's made for that job.

Phwew. It must be dark and scary in there, Gunner, in that vacant lot between your ears. d8-)

I think, but not like that.

Poodles..are actually pretty decent dogs. Not that Id ever own one. So how about Ed being a beagle? A more worthless dog never has been bred.

Bingo!

Bingo!

Your opinion is noted. As was the widespread registration of guns owned by Jews in 1935. And what happened to both.

Hide and watch.

You really dont think its going to come to a head and pop like an inflamed boil do you?

Pity.

Once again a Lefty confuses the symptoms with the disease.

Im going to have to knock a bunch of IQ points of Eds resume for that bit of buffoonery.

You mean it doesnt work?

Why Eddie..are you afraid you will be first in line in the stampeding herd?

Your opinion of yourself..is highly overrated.

The idiot poodle thinks all the insane people are in the gun culture. The fact is, he's entirely wrong. They're all his fellow blue staters.

We should ban the Democrat party, not "evil-looking" guns.

You mean that's what it was made for? Read your paragraphs above and then try to figure out why you just went around in a circle.

No herd. No line. Just the whistling of wind between your ears.

OK, a Poodgle it is. Just cut the fur right, OK?

Thanks for the kind words. This was what I call a top down proposal. I have also proposed a bottom up effort focused on the returning service members, who the media assure us are all homicidal maniacs.

As indicated, this memo was sent to the Wounded Warrior NGO, with copies to the American Legion, VFW, AmVets, and as they have a considerable dog in the fight, the NRA. No response.

As this proposal is somewhat lengthy and to preserve the formatting and hot link foot notes (mouse click to access) download a copy at

(free adobe reader required which you can download at )

From the available information, it would appear that if we could get even a few hundred responses ==>with med samples

Nasty drug. I know someone who attacked her husband and damned near killed him while on Chantix. Never remembered a thing until she came to in jail.

ARs are Ok toys, as I've stated elsewhere. I'm not impressed by semiautomatic fire on a target range, and the guns are otherwise mediocre rifles, or less, by today's standards. I shot several of them when I was active in DCM shooting, including a couple that were very expensive and well-tuned, one of which did quite well at Camp Perry. I doubt if I ever would have earned my six NRA Sharpshooter bars with an AR-15.

It's not like comparing a semiauto handgun with a revolver. Take away the semiauto action on an AR, and they're "eh." Or "meh."

As for the "hysteria," I addressed that in my last post.

Oh, regarding M1 carbines: I shot them every weekend in Junior DCM, around 1961 and '62. I never thought much of them. My dad didn't, either. Along with his whole platoon at Guadalcanal, he threw his in the ocean.

Paint it pink, and a brain damaged lefty will give you $7000 for it.
